What happens when a green owl, a handful of improv rules, and zero fear collide? You get Duolingo, the internet's most unhinged, hilarious, and effective brand. Zaria Parvez is the creative force behind that chaos. As Duolingo's first-ever social media hire, she helped grow the brand from 50,000 to over 16 million followers, turning a dusty owl costume in the office into one of the most recognizable (and meme-worthy) characters on the planet. She opens up about how she built a culture of creativity rooted in improv, boldness, and trust. She shares how her team turned social media into the heartbeat of the brand and why “fear is the most expensive mistake” in marketing. You'll learn: > The wild origin story behind Death by Duo, the campaign that hit 1.7 billion impressions with no paid ads. > How Zaria uses improv comedy principles to fuel creativity, collaboration, and confidence. > Why giving social teams approval power and autonomy is the key to moving at the speed of culture.

Matt Whetton, CTO, Acquired.comWhat lessons can the US learn from open banking in the UK and Europe? Three areas spring to mind – data privacy, user empowerment and government-industry coordination. The question is how likely is progress in these areas? In the last case, probably none at all (!) with open banking in the US being market driven. Matt Whetton, Chief Technology Officer at Acquired.com discusses open banking with Robin Amlôt of IBS Intelligence.

Trader Joe's breaks every rule of modern retail. They don't do e-commerce. They don't do delivery. No sales, coupons, or loyalty programs. They only stock 4,000 SKUs versus 50,000+ at normal supermarkets. Their parking lots are famously terrible and they're constantly out of your favorite items. Shoppers brave long lines and cramped aisles while overly-friendly employees in Hawaiian shirts try to chat them up. Everything about the Trader Joe's experience seems designed to drive modern consumers away. And yet they generate $2,000+ per square foot in sales — double their nearest competitor in Whole Foods and nearly 4x the industry average — and Americans are obsessed with them. How on earth did a company that so steadfastly refuses to participate in the 21st century build the most beloved grocery chain in America?Today we tell the full story: how “Trader” Joe Coulombe started out cloning 7-Elevens in 1960s Los Angeles, pivoted to slinging hard liquor, discovered the enormous market opportunities for California wine and health food before anyone else, and ultimately built perhaps the most counter-positioned business we've ever studied on Acquired by doing almost everything differently than the supermarket-CPG industrial complex.

Amar is a 5x founder who helped birth Tinder (it was the 10th project—after the first 9 failed), then sold his next company to Ford for putting a platform in every single vehicle they make.But the wildest part? He got Ford to commit in under a year by doing something most founders would never do: he asked for SO MUCH money that only the CEO could approve it. That one move made him "part of the transformational change" instead of a vendor they could ignore.In this episode, Amar breaks down the exact pricing strategy he used to land an 8-figure deal, why founders who sell discounted pricing are sabotaging themselves, and what it actually takes to compete against billion-dollar incumbents like Carta (his current company, Mantle, is doing exactly that).If you're trying to sell to enterprise, wondering if you should bootstrap or raise, or questioning whether your market even exists—this episode will reset how you think about all of it. Amar's built companies in mobile, vehicles, security, and fintech.

AP correspondent Julie Walker reports New York health officials confirm the state's first locally acquired case of chikungunya virus.
Good morning and welcome to the Tuesday, October 14th edition of Mining Stock Daily. Filling in for Trevor Hall, Michael McCrae reported that while markets are sliding—with Bitcoin, oil, and the S&P all down—gold remains steady, with December futures flat at around $4,128. Market volatility followed former President Trump's threat of 100% tariffs on China, which he later partially retracted, prompting China to vow retaliatory sanctions. The briefing, sponsored by Vizsla Silver, highlighted the company's progress in developing the Panuco-Copala silver-gold district in Sinaloa, Mexico, where it has drilled over 375,000 meters and consolidated one of the world's largest undeveloped high-grade silver resources. In company news, Loncor Gold agreed to be acquired by Chengtun Mining Group in a C$261 million all-cash deal at C$1.38 per share, marking a 33% premium over the 30-day VWAP, with major shareholders supporting the transaction. McEwen Mining announced the acquisition of Canadian Gold in an all-stock deal valuing shares at C$0.60, gaining control of the Tartan Lake Gold Mine Project in Manitoba. Benz Mining reported strong drill results from its Glenburgh project in Western Australia, intersecting 79 meters at 4.4 g/t gold and expanding its multi-lens gold system to 350 meters in strike length and open at depth. Scorpio Gold released encouraging assays from its Manhattan District project in Nevada, with highlights including 10.07 g/t Au over 5.94 meters and 5.49 g/t Au over 7.32 meters. Collective Mining closed concurrent financings totaling C$140 million, including a bought deal led by BMO and Scotia and a C$15 million private placement with Agnico Eagle, to fund exploration at its Guayabales Project in Colombia. American Pacific Mining underscored the national significance of its Palmer VMS Project in Alaska, citing its 980,000 tonnes of indicated and 3.05 million tonnes of inferred barite resources as key to reducing U.S. dependence on imported critical minerals. On the production front, G Mining Ventures reported 46,360 ounces of gold output from its Tocantinzinho Mine in Brazil, up 9% from Q2; Orla Mining produced 79,645 ounces despite earlier operational setbacks at Camino Rojo; and Avino Silver & Gold Mines generated 580,780 silver equivalent ounces, slightly down due to normal sequencing adjustments.

The Oakland A's of the 70's were at their absolute best when it came to October baseball. They beat the Big Red Machine to win the 1972 World Series. They beat the Miracle Mets in '73 to win it again. And in 1974, they made it back-to-back-to-back when they disposed of the Dodgers in 5 games. Flooded with names like Catfish & Reggie, Blue Moon & Vida, Campy and Geno, they had talent and swagger and were the team to beat heading into the 1975 postseason. Playing centerfield for those World Series winning teams in '73 & '74 was speedster Billy North. Acquired by Charlie Finley from the Cubs prior to the 1973 season, North immediately fit in with the defending champs and his style of play was exactly what manager Dick Williams loved… speed and defense. North would lead the AL in stolen bases in 1974 and 1976 when he stole a career high 75 bags while playing a sterling centerfield. After missing the entire postseason in '73 when the Athletics repeated as Champs by beating Tom Seaver and the Mets in 7 games, North was looking forward to the '74 season and a chance to play in the playoffs. But on June 5th in Detroit, he and Reggie Jackson had an altercation that ended up with both of them injured as well as catcher Ray Fosse. It wasn't the first time the Swinging A's brawled with each other and it had very little effect on the team's play. Three months later they were back in the World Series for the 3rd straight year, with Fosse, Jackson and North all in the starting lineup. Despite having won the last two World Series titles, the A's were underdogs against the Dodgers who won 102 games in the National League and they didn't give the A's much respect going into their matchup. On the POP podcast, North tells us how he was called the “Paperboy” because he read all the newspapers and he told his teammates on the flight back from Baltimore after winning the ALCS that a Dodger player was quoted as saying that there were only two players on the A's that could play for the Dodgers… the champs didn't need more than that… 5 games later… they were champs again for the 3rd straight year. North tells us how he and Reggie put that incident behind them and remain friends to this day… and how that team 50 years later still gathers together. He talks of how Dusty Baker influenced his life and remains one of his best friends and how Dusty honored him at an All-Star game a couple of years ago… and he talks about the NorthLegacyProject.com that he helped start in honor of his mom to help kids with special needs. For a man who made a living stealing bags in his 20's, he now lives to give back in his 70's. A 2-time champion of the only team in baseball history other than the Yankees to win 3 straight World Series Championships.

Welcome to Spooktober! It's my favorite month on History Fix because I get to bust out all of the spooky stories I've been saving. This week, we're talking about the notorious serial killer who operated in New Orleans in the nineteen teens known as the Axeman. The Axeman attacked strictly Italian grocers, breaking into their houses with stolen axes to bludgeon them to death. This guy has been embraced by popular culture, appearing on television shows like American Horror Story, not because of his brutal acts or the fact that we still have no idea who he was today. He's been embraced mostly because of a letter that was published in the local newspaper purporting that he loved jazz music and would spare anyone listening to jazz on a particular night in the spring of 1919. But who was the Axeman? And what does any of this have to do with jazz? Let's fix that. Support the show!

In this episode, Jack Martin, founder of 52Ten, shares how he raised over $60M and built a $145M portfolio of mobile home parks across five states. From his first unexpected deal that turned into a “light bulb moment” to today's institutional-quality acquisitions, Jack walks us through the strategies that deliver strong, stable returns for investors.
