This is a story of growth through creativity, experimentation, and using technology to stay lean.Carlo Pandian (LinkedIn) is the founder of Slow Travel Italia. Four years ago he started with a single wine tasting in Verona, and today runs 160 experiences across 12 Italian cities, serving 15,000 guests a year with a very small team.In this episode, he talks to TP host Mitch Bach about exactly how he did it: experimenting with neglected time slots (like 6pm) that competitors ignore, launching five tours at once instead of one to multiply his chances of finding a niche, using Airtable and automations to eliminate manual booking assignments and personalize communication at scale, and treating OTAs as a launchpad rather than a long-term home. Carlo shares how he identifies gaps in crowded markets by studying what's missing—not just in Italy but in places like Japan—and why he pulled out of Milan when the math didn't work. He explains his "requirements manifesto" for vetting partners, how he coaches food producers on storytelling for international audiences, and why the biggest trend he's seeing is travelers willing to spend half a day outside the city for a single product done deeply—visiting the olive grove, watching mozzarella pulled from boiling water, understanding one thing fully rather than tasting nine things superficially.As always, more info and takeaways on tourpreneur.com.

Hi my loves!! In this solo, I'm opening up about something I've tiptoed around for years: how much I genuinely love being a mother. I talk about choosing joy over fear, parenting with intention, navigating privilege with humility, setting boundaries with Davide, reframing overwhelm, and the little mindset tricks that help me stay grounded- even on the days when Carlo is whining nonstop and Carmela can basically read my thoughts. This one is equal parts vulnerable, practical, and rooted in what's brought me the most happiness: autonomy, mastery, and purpose. I hope you enjoy!!

Featuring his own originals and cuts from names like Adapter, Cabizbajo, Kommando (IT), RIKO & GUGGA, and The YellowHeads, Carlo Cobos returns to our WaterWays celebration with a groove-driven journey bouncing between raw club energy, vocal hooks, and melodic depth.

In Episode 460 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with Professor of International Politics at the Bundeswehr University Munich, Carlo Masala, whose book "If Russia Wins," makes the case for European national rearmament and the urgent need to deter near-term Russian threats against NATO member countries in the absence of American leadership. Masala and Kofinas spend the first hour of their conversation detailing the scenario Calro puts forward in his book—a limited Russian incursion into the Estonian city of Narva. They explore why Carlo thinks that Russia might attempt such an operation, the similarities to and differences from the approach Russia took in Ukraine in 2014, whether NATO's Article 5 commitment would hold in such a scenario, and whether the gradual erosion and eventual destruction of the NATO alliance is the ultimate goal of the Russian Federation, irrespective of who is in office. The second hour is devoted to a conversation about: Europe's defense challenges in the face of a declining American commitment to NATO The material and financial constraints European nations face in strengthening their deterrence The advantages and disadvantages of Russia's conventional and unconventional forces The deeper crisis of identity and purpose afflicting Western democracies. They discuss the immigration debate, culture wars, the failure of democratic leadership in the context of European politics, and what ordinary citizens can do to defend democratic systems in the face of threats, both external and internal.

In the book Carlo portrays a hypothetical scenario - in which Russia ends up achieving a limited victory in Ukraine, pursues a period of normalization with Europe and a few years later, launches a limited attack on Estonia, in an attempt to break up NATO unity - which - in the scenario - turns out to be a success. Carlo is not the first person to present a scenario in which Russia tests NATO but what makes this different and unique is how exceptionally realistic this one is. From the start to finish, I could genuinely see most of it happening - and in many instances, I thought the scenario was not just plausible but the most likely way things would happen - which makes it all the more frightening and worth consideration. In the conversation, we pick it apart, explore how it would play out and what would it mean. We talk about whether Russia would have an appetite for another military gamble after Ukraine, whether the Estonians would just let it happen, whether Europe has learned its lesson on how to deal with Russia in the past 4 years, what would not wanting to risk a World War 3 over a small town in Estonia mean for NATO and European security - or whether there is any hope that an American president would come to aid of Europe at a time when Trump is literally demanding Greenland. And whether - effectively - NATO just isn't already dead anyway  - and if it is, what does that mean for all of us.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for January 20, 2026 is: quiddity • KWID-uh-tee • noun Quiddity refers to the essence of a thing—that is, whatever makes something the type of thing that it is. Quiddity can also refer to a small and usually trivial complaint or criticism, or to a quirk or eccentricity in someone's behavior. // The novelist's genius was her unparalleled ability to capture the quiddity of the Maine seacoast in simple prose. // He portrayed the character's quirks and quiddities with tender playfulness. See the entry > Examples: “When I was gathering my odes into a book—or rather, piling up my effusions in prose and verse and trying to work out which ones were odes and which weren't—my friend Carlo gave me a magical concept. He called it ‘the odeness.' It's the essential quality, quiddity, … uniqueness of whatever you're trying to write about. It's what your ode is attempting to first identify and then celebrate. It's the odeness of your ode.” — James Parker, The Atlantic, 30 Sept. 2025 Did you know? When it comes to synonyms of quiddity, the Q's have it. Consider quintessence, a synonym of the “essence of a thing” meaning of quiddity, and quibble, a synonym of the “trifling point” use. And let's not forget about quirk: like quiddity, quirk can refer to a person's eccentricities. Of course, quiddity also comes from a “Q” word, the Latin pronoun quis, which is one of two Latin words for “who” (the other is qui). Quid, the neuter form of quis, led to the Medieval Latin quidditas, which means “essence,” a term that was essential to the development of the English word quiddity.

In this week's episode we are speaking with Dr. Carlo Siracusa, a professor of small animal behavior and welfare at the University of Pennsylvania's School of Veterinary Medicine.  Dr. Siracusa specializes in animal behavior, stress evaluation, and canine aggression. In a nutshell, Dr. Siracusa's research focuses on canine and feline behavioral issues-why they develop, how humans influence those issues, and best approaches to working with dogs facing these challenges. There are many factors at play in context to behavioural issues, from environment and socialization to stress, trauma, and changes in health that can affect them physically and behaviorally.In this episode we are focusing on dogs primarily because although so many of us have dogs we really don't understand a lot of what dogs experience living in our human worlds. Often we think in terms of our love and experience with and to dogs but not the other way around. The better we can understand the life of a dog, the better life we can offer them. We ask A LOT of this very specific, carefully curated species and it's time we really dig into the life of a dog as they see it and experience it.Thanks so much to Dr. Siracusa for this mind blowing conversation! Lots of Love, Kate & Jenn. Time Stamps:Intro: 00:16Interview: 8:20TA: 1:21:17Show Notes:https://www.vet.upenn.edu/directory/carlosiracusa/https://www.vet.upenn.edu/ryan-hospital/clinical-services/behavioral-medicine/

The latest episode of Crypto Town Hall dives into the dramatic postponement of the Senate Banking Committee's markup on the Clarity Act following Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong's public withdrawal of support. Panelists, including Scott Melker and guests like Carlo and Tom, unpack key controversies: recent amendments imposing a de facto ban on tokenized equities, restrictions on DeFi and privacy, erosion of CFTC authority, and a banking lobby push to block stablecoin yield/rewards to protect deposits. While some view Coinbase's influence as a bullish sign of crypto's growing DC power, others see it as evidence of entrenched banking interests stalling innovation. The group debates the bill's near-term viability (likely dead or heavily scaled back before midterms), its broader implications for tokenization and competition with traditional finance, and why Bitcoin's recent rally appears resilient despite the regulatory setback.

In this episode of Gangland Wire, Mafia Genealogist Justin Cascio joins Intelligence Unit detective Gary Jenkins to explore one of the most remarkable—and overlooked—figures of the Prohibition era: Pasqualina Albano Siniscalchi, the so-called Bootleg Queen of Springfield, Massachusetts. At the dawn of Prohibition in 1921, Pasqualina was a young widow living in Springfield's South End when she inherited her late husband's powerful bootlegging operation—one of the largest in western Massachusetts. Rather than step aside, she took control. Pasqualina ruled a crew of toughs and bootleggers, oversaw liquor distribution, and launched a relentless campaign of vengeance against rivals who challenged her authority. Newspapers dubbed her The Bootleg Queen, but her fight went far beyond rival gangs. She clashed with lawmakers, battled competing bootleggers, and even faced resistance from within her own family—all while operating in service of a secret society that would never fully accept her because she was a woman. Her story exposes the contradictions of organized crime: loyalty demanded without equality, power wielded without recognition. Cascio draws from years of meticulous research and family histories to bring Pasqualina's story to life, revealing her pivotal role in early Mafia expansion in New England and the hidden influence women could wield behind the scenes. His book, Pasqualina: The True Story of the Bootleg Queen of Springfield, challenges long-held assumptions about gender, power, and the Mafia during Prohibition.

Transcript [0:00] Hey, all you wiretappers. Good to be back here in the studio of Gangland Wire. I’ve got on tap here a repeat guest. He’s been on before. I had a little technical glitch this morning with the internet, and I had to scurry around and do something different. I totally forgot about what I was going to talk about with Justin, but I knew Justin’s been on there before. I knew he does mafia genealogy, and I knew he knows his stuff, and so he doesn’t really need a lot of help from me. So this is Justin Cascio from the website and some books, some mafia genealogies. Welcome, Justin. Thanks so much, Gary. Great to be here. Really. And you’re from the Springfield, Massachusetts area. And so that’s been some of your emphasis has been on that area. But you’ve done a lot of other mob genealogy, correct? Yes. On my website, on mafiagenealogy.com, I write about a whole lot of different places that the mafia has been in the United States. In fact, coming up, I’m going to be writing about Kansas City. But for the last 25 years or so, I’ve lived in New England. I live about 20 miles away from Springfield, Massachusetts, which if you’ve heard of Anthony Aralata or Bruno or the Shabelli brothers, then you know the Springfield crew of the Genovese crime family. [1:12] And I’ve been following them pretty closely since I’ve lived here. A few years ago, I got into the story of Pasqualina Albano, who was a bootlegger in Springfield during Prohibition. [1:25] That’s what my new book is about. Yeah. Oh, that’s a new book, right? I’m sorry. I didn’t pick up real quick there. And she’s done a documentary recently that hasn’t been seen by very many people. And they really, she was a woman. They do use the A at the end. Those of us that know about romance languages would know as probably a woman, but she’s a woman. And she was running a certain segment of bootlegging back during the 30s and late 20s, exactly when it was, which is really unusual. She must have been a powerful individual. I think that she was a very remarkable person, so I couldn’t find out enough about her. I really needed to understand how it was possible that somebody who the Mafia would never have accepted as a member allowed her to lead this crew for so long, even into the years when it was associated with Vito Genovese and that crime family. Yeah. Don’t you imagine it was, she must have been making money for them. [2:24] She was making money for her family, for sure. Got a few people probably pretty comfortable, yeah. [2:30] So that family, you went to a family reunion recently and learned quite a little bit. You want to tell your experiences about that? Yes. So, Pasqualea Albano, that bootlegger, has a nephew who is now 101 years old. His name is Mario Fiore. And when he turned 100, I was invited to his birthday party. And it was an enormous scene. It was tremendous. In fact, it’s a cliche, but the opening scene of The Godfather, if you imagine that wedding scene, it’s what it looks like. There’s a guy singing live on a PA system. There’s a pizza oven parked over here. There’s kids in the pool. There’s so many people, so much food, and this great big lawn and incredible view. Just an amazing scene to be at. And I met so many different people who were in Mario’s family. I met people who came over from Italy to come celebrate his birthday and talked with them as much as I could. I have no Italian, by the way. So we did the best we could. But I also talked to her American relative. She has all these grand nieces and nephews, and nieces and nephews who are still living, who were at this party and told me stories and drew little family trees for me. And what I was able to get a real good sense of is how the family feels about this legacy. Because not just Pasqualina, who was in organized crime, so many of her relatives were involved as well and continued to be up until the 80s, at least. [4:00] So the name, was it Albano? Was it got on in the modern times? The last name, was it still Albano? Was there another name? There are a few. Let’s see. I want some more modern names. There’s Mario Fiore. So he is one of her nephews. And then there’s Rex Cunningham Jr., who is one of her grandnephews. There’s the Sentinellos. So Jimmy Sentinello, who owns the Mardi Gras, or he did anyway. It’s a nude club, you know, a gentleman’s club, as they say. A gentleman’s club. We use that term loosely. Oh, boy, do we? Another old term that I picked up from the newspapers that I just love and like to bring back is sporting figure. Yeah, even sporting man. They don’t play sports. They’re not athletes. They’re sporting figures. I know. I heard that when I was a kid. Somebody was a sporting man. Yep. [4:57] This has been a family tradition. It’s something that has been passed down through the generations, and it’s something that I talk about in the book. But mostly what I’m focused on in the plot of the story is about Pasqualea’s time during Prohibition when this gang was turning into something bigger, turning into a part of this American mafia. Yeah. Interesting. And so tell us a little bit about how that developed. You had a Genovese family that moved in and she got hooked up with them. How did that develop? Yeah. More end of modern times. Early on, so 1920, beginning of Prohibition, Pasqualea Albana was newly married to this sporting figure, we’ll call him, Carlo Sinascocci. And I’m probably pronouncing that last name as wrong as well. He also came from a family of notable people who were involved in organized crime, getting into scrapes in Little Italy, New York City. There’s a whole separate side story about his cousins and all the things that they were getting into before Carlo even got on the scene. So by the time he arrived in New York City, he had a bit of a reputation preceding him because of these relatives of his. [6:06] And Pascalina was a young woman in Springfield. And the first question I even had writing about her is, how did she meet this guy? He was a Brooklyn saloon keeper. She was the daughter of a grocer in Springfield, three and a half hours away on the train. Like, why do they even know each other? And so trying to piece all that together, how that was reasonable for them to know one another and move in the same circles, and then for him to immediately, when he moved to Springfield, start picking up with vice because it was before Prohibition. So he was involved in gambling and police violence. And you could see some of the beginnings of the corruption already happening where he’s getting police protection before prohibition even begins. And then once it starts, he is the king of Water Street, which was the main drag of Little Italy. He was the guy you went to if you wanted to buy wholesale. [6:57] Justin, I have a question here. I was just discussing this with who’s half Italian, I guess, FBI agent that worked the mob here in Kansas City. We were talking about this, the prejudice that Italian people felt when they first got here, especially. And Bill’s about 90, and so he said his father told him. His father worked at a bank in New York, and he was told that with that last name, he had a different last name than Bill does. And with that last name, he said, you’re owning and go so high in the bank. And so talk a little bit about the prejudice that those early people felt. And that’s what drove people into the dark side, if you will, to make money. You had these bright guys that came over from Sicily looking for opportunity. And then us English and Irish Germans kept them out. [7:45] And so can you talk about that a little bit? Did they talk about any of that or have you looked into any of that? [7:52] I have. And it’s a theme that comes up again and again. Whenever I look at organized crime in any city, I’m seeing things like that ethnic succession of organized crime that you’re alluding to, how the Irish were controlling, say, the machine in Kansas City Hall or what have you. And they had that same kind of control over politics in other cities, too. And the way that they were getting a leg up and finally getting that first protection of their rackets was from outside of their ethnicity. It was Irish politicians protecting Italian criminals. And then eventually the Italians were getting naturalized where they were born here. And so then they move into politics themselves. [8:31] And that is one of the theories about how organized crime develops in American cities. It’s because you’re poor and ethnic and you’re closed out of other opportunities. And so the bright kids get channeled into organized crime where maybe in a better situation, they would have gone to college. Right. And then Prohibition came along, and there was such a huge amount of money that you can make in Prohibition. And it was illegal. That’s why you made money. But there was opportunity there for these young guys. Yes. And you really start to see a lot of new names in the papers after Prohibition begins. You have your established vice criminals who you’re already seeing in the newspapers through the 19-teens. Once Prohibition begins, now they have all these other guys getting into the game because there’s so much money there. And it’s such a big pie. Everybody feels like they can get a slice. [9:21] Yeah, interesting. Carry on. I’ve distracted you, Azai, but you were talking about Pasqualina and her husband. Of course, I’m not even going to try that. When you talk about discrimination against Italians, one of the things that makes my job really hard is trying to find news about a guy with a name like Carlos Siniscalchi. First of all, I’m probably saying it wrong. I think the Italian pronunciation is… So I’m getting all of the consonant clusters wrong, but I do it with my own name too. We’ve Americanized Cassio. That’s not the right name. How do you pronounce it? It’s Cassio. But we’re Cassio. That’s my grandfather said it. So how do I find Carlos Nescalci in the newspaper when every reporter mangles that name? And spells it differently. Yeah. Everybody spells it differently. How am I going to guess how all these different English speaking reporters were going to mess up Carlos’ name? And so I find it every which way. And sometimes I’ve just had to plain stumble over news about him and his relatives. It just happens by chance. I’m looking for general crime, and then I find him specifically. So yeah, it’s a little hard to find the Italians sometimes because their names are unfamiliar and they get written wrong in censuses and in the news. So we lose a little bit of their history that way. And that’s what you might call, I don’t know, a microaggression because they can’t get that name. Yeah, a little bit. Yeah, yeah. You don’t care enough to spell it. I just, I know the thought process, I have to admit. I’ll just spell it anyway. I understand that thought process. [10:51] So you were asking earlier, I don’t know if you want me to continue this, but how the Genovese family were able to get involved in this thing going on in Springfield. Yeah, connected. Because of her second husband. Okay. Pascalina lost her first husband in 1921. He was killed by a fellow bootlegger. He takes over the gang. She conducts a war of vengeance against the guy who kills her husband and his whole family because they’re gangsters. And that takes years. She’s also pursuing her through the courts. And when that all finally gets settled a few years later, she has a quiet little second marriage to a guy that nobody had ever heard of called Antonio Miranda. [11:28] Now, Antonio Miranda is a small time gangster from Little Italy, New York City, and his brother is Mike Miranda, who is very close to Vito Genovese, and he became this conciliator eventually. So that old connections, going back to the days before the Castello-Moraisi War, when it was Lucky Luciano bootlegging with some of his pals, that’s the time frame in which she formed this alliance by marrying Tony Miranda. And that’s when it starts. That’s the relationship’s beginning between Genovese crime family having, before it was even the Genovese crime family, when it was the Luciano family. And so they’ve had that relationship with the Springfield crew ever since. A little bit like old world feudalism in a way, where one member of a royal family marries a member of another royal family. And I know in Kansas City, we’ve got our underboss, his sister, is married to our boss’s nephew. So, bring those two families together, the Lunas and the Savellas together, yes, very well, like noble families. Exactly. Interesting. Absolutely. [12:31] So that’s how they got together. I remembered that, but I’d forgotten it. So, you went to this reunion with people from Sicily there. So, tell us a little bit about that. How? [12:43] How do people in Sicily view the people in the United States? And they didn’t talk about the mafia. I’m sure there’s no doubt that they’re not going to really talk about that unless you got to find somebody that’s really lucky. But kind of care about the sociological impact and the old world and the new world, and the new world people that, you know, established here. Okay, so Pasqualea and his family are from outside of Naples, and they maintain really close ties to their family back in Italy. Like I am the third generation born in America. I don’t speak Italian. Neither does my father. Neither of us has ever been to Italy. We don’t have, we’re not Italians. We’re Americans. Okay. And the Italians will remind you of that if you forget. We’re not Italian. And like spaghetti and meatballs, not Italian. Chicken Parmesan, not Italian. These are things that we invented here out of a sense of, out of homesickness and a sudden influx of middle-class wealth. We were like, let’s have the spaghetti and the meatballs. I had separate courses anymore where the meatballs are, where they’re both a special treat and I’m going to take two treats with chicken and waffles. [13:50] So being around them, they’re formal. You know, I was meeting like Pasquena’s relatives from Mercado San Sivarino, where they’re from in Italy, they own a funeral home. They own the biggest funeral home business in the town, and they also own some other sort of associated businesses, like a florist and things like that. So I would expect a certain sort of decorum and conservatism of tone from somebody who works in the funeral business and from Italy. But they were also among the only people there in suits, because it was a summer day, we’re outside. Most of us were dressed a little less formally. Yeah. Old school, 1950s stuff. He does those old 1950s photographs, and everybody, every man’s wearing a suit. And there were women’s hat on. Also, that ongoing thing where people in Europe just dress better. Yeah, they dress more formal. I see a little bit in New York City. I noticed it when I moved up from the South. In the South, you go to a funeral and flip-flops, okay? It’s very casual because the weather absolutely demands it. I moved that back up North, and I’m like, wow, everybody’s just wearing the same black coat, aren’t we? And you go into New York. People are dressed a little better, even. You go to Europe, and it’s just another level is what I hear. People, they dress better. They’re not like us where we would roll out of bed and put on pajama pants and some crocs and go to the grocery store. They would never do something. Yes. [15:10] I was in a restaurant several years ago, and there’s a guy sitting at a table, and another young guy comes in. And the guy at the table says, dude, you wore your pajama bottoms in the restaurant. [15:22] People need to be sold. And I’ll have to admit, at the time, I hadn’t seen that before. And since then, I see it all the time now. I live in a college town. I see it a lot. Yeah. So i’ll carry on a little more about that reunion there uh okay so how to describe this so much of it was very surreal to me just being in this place like very fancy house the longest driveway i’ve ever seen like more than a mile i finally like when i parked my car because the track you know you can the parked cars are starting i parked and i get out of the car. And I’ve got this big present with me that I’m going to give to Mario. It’s unwieldy. And I’m like, oh man, this is going to be quite a schlep. And I’m wearing my good shoes and everything. And these two young fellas come up on a golf cart and bring me a ride. So I get in the golf cart and we get up to the house and my friend Gina was trying to point people out to me. Oh, he’s somebody that was in my documentary and you got to talk to this guy. And there was a lot of that. you’ve got to talk to this guy and you’ve got to talk to this woman and dragging me around to meet people. And one of the groups of people that I was, that I found myself standing in, [16:35] I’m talking to gangsters this time. Okay. This is not cousins who won a funeral home. These are gangsters. And I’m standing with them and they’re having the absolute filthiest conversation that I’ve heard since high school. [16:48] And, but the difference is boys in high school are just talking. These guys have done all the things they’re talking about. Wow. What a life is. The lives you would have led. Bye. I’m just trying to keep it. Are these American gangsters or are these? Americans. Okay, yeah. Current gangsters, they’re in the Springfield area with Anthony Arilada there. They’ve all hated him, probably. I’m sorry? I said Anthony Arilada when he’s there, and they all hated him. You probably didn’t bring his name up. Yeah, really. There are different factions in Springfield, it feels like to me, still. bill. And I haven’t got them all sorted. There are people who are still very loyal to the old regime and they have their figure, their person that they follow. And sometimes they can live with the rest of them and sometimes the rest of them are a bunch of lowlives and they want everybody to know about it. Yeah. [17:45] I’ve heard that conversation before. Interesting. Now, whose house was this? Somebody made it well in America. Yes. And I think it was one of his nephews. I don’t know exactly whose house it was. I was invited by Gina’s brother. He texted me and invited me to the party. And people just accepted me right in. The close family members who have seen Gina’s documentary, who have heard her talk about Pastelina and the research and meeting me, they think of me as the family a genealogist. And so I have a title in the family and belong there. Oh yeah, it’s here to document us. As you do, because we’re an important family. And so they didn’t really question my presence there at all. And you were able to ask questions from that standpoint too. That’s what was nice. Yeah. [18:37] And a lot of times it was just standing still and listening because there was so much going on, That was enough. Interesting. Now, her documentary, you’ve seen it, so tell us a little bit about it. Folks, it’s not out there streaming yet. She’s trying to get something going, I would assume. [18:58] Explain her just a little bit, too, in her book. Talk about her and her book and her documentary. Yeah. Okay. Gina’s a part of this big family that has got some wealth still and goes back to bootleggers in Prohibition and has gangsters in it, including her brother, Rex Cunningham Jr. So Cunningham is the name you don’t expect to hear in the mafia. Yeah, yeah. Done by Marietta Beckerwood. I don’t know if he was a member or associate, but at any rate, he was a known figure around here. Sportsbook and that kind of thing. Sportsbook, yeah. Yeah. She grew up with a little bit of wealth and privilege, but also feeling a little bit outsider because her family was half Irish. So among the Italians, it was a, you go to the wrong church, you go to the wrong school kind of vibe. And she grew up into more of a countercultural person. Her family is very conservative politically, religiously. I don’t know if you would expect that of a gangster family, but that’s what I’ve noticed is pretty common, actually. No, it’s pretty, that’s the way it is here. Yeah, real conservative, yeah. Yeah. You have to be socially for the whole thing to work. I can get into that, but And they keep going to the same church and school and everything, and you maintain these close ties with the neighborhood and local businesses and so forth. But she really was like, I’m going my own way. And so she became this free spirit as a young woman. And Gina’s, I don’t know how old she is. I want to say in her late 60s, around 70, about there. [20:23] That’s Gina Albano Cunningham. Cunningham. Oh, Gina. Okay, Gina Cunningham. See, I’m getting mixed up with the names. And Cunningham was… Ask Elena Albanos. Her sister married and became a Fiore. Okay. All right. That’s a little bit confusing. People have to go to your website to get this straightened out. Or maybe you have this, a picture, an image of this family tree on your website. In the book, you can find multiple family trees because I’m working with all these different branches. I’ll take a look if I can’t put an image in here for everybody to get this straight. But the modern woman that did the book and the movie, she’s in her 70s now. [21:04] Yeah. Yeah, and she’s a grandniece of Pasqualina, and her brother and her cousins were in organized crime in this room. Okay, all right, all right. Go ahead, go ahead. She’s absolutely immersed in this life, but she did not want any part of it, and so she left. And there are other people in her family that you can point to that did the same thing, like some of Pasqualina’s children just did not want to have anything to do with the family. Well, they left. They went and moved to another state. They stayed in another place. They didn’t come back. And she did the same thing, but she’s not cut ties. She keeps coming back and she has good relationships with her family members, even though she’s not aligned with them politically and so forth. [21:42] And she’s an artist. I’ve seen her work on a couple of different mediums. I don’t want to really try and explain what her art is, but she’s a feminist artist. And she’s also really been pointing the camera at her family quite a bit. And it seems like film might be a newer medium for her. She’s used to do more painting and sculpture and stuff kind of thing. How’d the family take that? A lot of these people, I’ve talked to some relatives here, and one of them come on to talk to me, but I said, your Uncle Vince, he said, yeah, I know. But then he never would get back to me all of a sudden. So a lot of pressure to not say anything about it. Oh, yeah. Sometimes I will get started talking to somebody and then it’ll reach a certain point where they’re like oh no we can’t don’t be recording this don’t put my yeah anything so yeah news to that but gina was like no this is going to be part of my, political art. I’m going to point the camera at my family. I’m going to expose, some of the hypocrisy that I see there, the things I disagree with. [22:41] It’s a short documentary, and I find it very powerful because it’s a family video. One of the first people she’s aiming the camera at is, I think, one of her nieces. Talking to this young woman who is leaning on her car, maybe in her late teens, early 20s, and this young woman is saying, oh, yeah, I would marry a gangster if I had the chance. And I’m just like, do you not know your family? Do you not know the heart? And later on in the video, you get to hear some of the really just like gut wrenching stories of what pain people in her family have brought upon themselves through their involvement in organized crime and all the things that it entails. And this young woman is, I don’t know, she’s acting because she doesn’t even know this other uncle or this other cousin that she’s got that can tell her these stories. Or is it, I don’t know, it doesn’t matter or something. And that to me was shocking. That’s the kind of thing that needs, that’s somebody who needs their mind changed. And I was like, I hope she watches this video she’s in and changes her mind about how she feels about that life and wanting to be a part of it. But that’s what mafia culture creates more of, is people who want to be a part of that. [23:53] There’s a certain romance to it that started out with Robin Hood, if you will. You get a romance of the gangster, the criminal that maybe is good to some people, good to support people, good to their family. And it continues on to this day to John Gotti. He’s the most recent iteration of Robin Hood and Jesse James here in the Midwest. People love Jesse James. When I grew up, everybody, every family had a story about how a couple of guys came by their house back in the 1800s and they gave them a place to stay and a meal. And they left them like a $20 gold piece, which was like $500 or something. And they said, it was Jesse James. I know it was. It’s the romance of the gangster continues. Yes. We all would love to imagine that we’re on the gangster side and that the gangster agrees. Yeah. As long as we don’t have to go to jail or pay that price. Because to me, I’ve got a friend today that he spent about 12 years and he would give all that gangster life back to get that 12 years back for these kids growing up. He’s turned over a new life today. I had lunch with him and his son not too long ago. And it’s just his son has told him, he said, every time I had to walk away from you in the penitentiary and come back home after our visit, he said, I was just crushed. It’s a huge price to pay for that. But there’s still that romance continues. [25:13] That terrible price, I think, is part of what feeds the romance. If there was no risk, there wouldn’t be that allure. Yeah, that’s true. You met that risk and overcame it and went on, came out on top. It’s what they always like to claim that came out on top of it. So I understand that thought process. I take a lot of risk in my life just from the other side. I said, live to fight another day. Yeah, there really are different kinds of risks that you can take. I was writing about a contract killer in Texas, and one of his targets was a guy who was a grain dealer. And I was like, that’s a really weird target for murder, right? Like, why would you kill a grain dealer from rural Texas? And it was because his old partner had an insurance policy out on him and decided to cash in on it. That was Charles Harrison, wasn’t it? Yeah, yeah, exactly. Sad story. Charles Harrison. Yeah. It was like, these were two guys that took very different kinds of risks, right? You got Charles Harrelson, who kills people for money. That’s a certain kind of risk you’re definitely taking. And then there’s the guy who buys grain and then sells it. So he’s taking these risks for his community of farmers. [26:27] And I was like, that’s really wholesome. And that’s, I don’t know, I feel like it’s a really positive example of masculinity. That’s the kind of risk we’re supposed to take for the safety and well-being of our neighbors? Yeah. Even the farmers, they risk everything every year. Smaller farmer, I grew up in those families and a smaller farmer practically risk everything every year, being in on the weather. That’s why I didn’t stay on the farm. And the markets, you don’t know what the markets are going to do. It’s a gamble every year. That Charles Harrelson, that’s Woody Harrelson’s dad who killed the Judds, famous murder down in El Paso. And he had a business. He carried a card that said he was a hitman. It was his story. [27:10] Bold. He was a crazy bold dude. I did a whole three-part series on that whole Jimmy Chagra marijuana business [27:20] down there on the border. and his connection to it and the killing of Judge Wood. So it’s just a business in these guys. Hey, it’s not personal. It’s just business. Yikes. It’s crazy. But Justin, you got anything else you want to tell us about? Anything you’re working on? And remind guys your website and what you can find there. He has some really interesting stuff about the old early days in Chicago. I know that. I referred to some of that several years ago when I was doing something on Chicago. So give guys a little walk through on your website. It’s really interesting. Okay, so John Gotti is one name I don’t think you’re ever going to find on my website. Yeah, good. [27:59] I’m really addicted to origin stories. I like to find out how the Mafia was already present before that point when we say it started. Yeah, in the 20s. But gangsters don’t come out of nowhere. Gangs don’t come out of nowhere. They evolve. They grow. There are forces to create them. And so that’s what I’m interested in. I like to go around. And I spent a lot of my early career writing about one place and its effect on the United States, Corleone, where my family’s from in Sicily. And that was my first book, In Our Blood. And some of my first posts on mafia genealogy are in that thread. They’re about my family and the Corleonesi. But then I started to get into other [28:42] places and wanting to know about their stories and getting into other parts of Italy as well. So if you go to my website, you’re going to find stories like Charles Harrelson and the two guys that he killed before the judge, or in Chicago about the different little Italys that existed before Capone consolidated everything, or Kansas City I’m writing about, Nick Fatsuno and the Passantino brothers. I don’t even know if you know those guys, but I thought their further stories were amazing. [29:09] Passantino had a funeral home today, but the other names I don’t really know back then. I don’t know much about that or those early days. Did they seem to come from the same little town, the same general area? They didn’t, actually. A lot of them were Sicilian, and they come from Palermo province, but not all from the same town. Not from okay. Yeah. Yeah, I wasn’t able to put—there’s not a strong current there in Kansas City like I’ve found in other places where everybody is from one town. Yeah. [29:37] But not so much in Kansas City. A little more varied. Interesting. So that’s what you’ll find on my website. And then Pasqualina is my second book, and you can buy both of my books at Amazon. Got them behind me here, Airblood, Pasqualina. And Pasqualina is about that prohibition era, and if you like to understand where big-nosed Sam Koufari got his start, it’s in there. And the Shabelli brothers show up. It’s about those origins. I was talking to a friend of mine about this name, Skeeball or Skeebelly. Yes. Who had some relationship back in Springfield, and he just really knew Skeeball when he was young. [30:17] Yep, because it was the spelling of his name. I’m not even sure how they pronounced it. I think it’s Skeebelly. Skeebelly. That probably was. Yeah, Skeebelly. I know somebody named Skeebelly, so probably was. That’s like the name of the body shop here in Kansas City, and it’s P-A-C-E. But really it’s Pache. We’ve got to do it right. And that’s probably short for Pache. I don’t know. I wonder if the family pronounces it Pache or Pace. I think business-wise, but then the person who was talking was close to the family and they said, oh no, it’s Pache. So I thought, okay. [30:53] Interesting. The immigrant experience in this country is really always interesting. There’s always conflict and the interest is in the conflict. And as people try to make their way, and stopping with, oh God, it was an author, T.J. did the Westies. You guys know T.J. that did the Westies. And he said, yeah, he said, and he really was articulate about, as we’ve discussed this, that people come here want an opportunity, because they didn’t have any opportunity in the old country, whether it be Naples or southern Italy or Sicily. They came here, they really just wanted opportunity. And then the opportunity, you have to start fighting for opportunity. That’s the nature of the beast in this country. In any kind, any society, you’ve got to fight for opportunity when you’re an outsider and you come in. And so that was the early development. These people just wanting a little slice of this American pie that they’d heard so much about. The streets are paved with gold over here, but found out you’ve got to dig that old man. [31:52] Some people probably came over here thinking they were going to make an honest living and found themselves, by one step and another, involved in organized crime. And then there were other men who came here from Italy for whom the opportunity was to be a criminal here. Richer pickings. Yeah. And they started restaurants and had your typical immigrant, all the immigrant restaurants, all these Chinese, whatever kind of ethnic food is, they start out with an immigrant who then puts his kids and his cousins and his nephews and sisters and grandmas in the back room kitchen, start those restaurants. And people, us people that are already here like that food and they run them, they do a really good job at it. And so that’s a way to get started in grocery stores for their other fellow paisans. And those were the ways that they made it here, at least now, probably the same way in every city where there’s a large Italian population. Got to feed the other Italians. And so an Italian restaurant is natural. Yeah. And also owning your own business is just really smart for a lot of people. If you’re an organized crime, it’s a great way to hide what you’re doing. [32:59] And if you’re trying to get a naturalization status, especially now, being a business owner is really advantageous. Yeah, I bet. I was talking about that on getting a naturalization process that showed that you’re an entrepreneur and you believe in the system and you’re doing well. Yeah, interesting. [33:17] All right, Justin Cascio, and the website is Mafia Genealogy. He’s got a couple books on there in this documentary. I don’t know. Keep us up on that. Maybe if it comes out, I’ll make sure to get it out on something where people know that they can go out and see it. It sounds really interesting. Thanks, YOL. All right. Thanks, Justin. I’ll do that no more. Thank you, Justin. It’s really a pleasure to talk to you again. Always a pleasure being on your show. Thank you. Great. [33:44] Justin, see, I was going to ask you about something. What? Are you going through a publisher? You got a publisher? No, I’m self-published. You’re self-published? Okay. Yeah. See, I self-published several books, and I’m doing probably my last ones, a story of my life, kind of more of a memoir, my struggles and my moral dilemmas and all that during when I worked intelligence. And then I’ll explain all about the big civil mob war we had here during those years. And I don’t know. I started poking around. I thought, well, maybe I’ll try to get a regular publisher. But boy, it’s hard. You’ve got to get an agent. You can’t get attention of an agent because there’s hundreds and thousands of people out there writing books wanting to do all this. So thank God for Amazon. Yeah. I think if you already have your audience. Yeah. And you know who they are and you’re already talking to them. You don’t need to pay somebody else to do that for you. Yeah. Yeah. I’m paying an editor to go over to… That’s different. That’s no other strengths. But to get it sold out there. Out here making videos every day. The good thing about getting a publisher is you can get, and then you got a chance of getting it into Barnes & Noble and into libraries. [34:59] See, libraries. You might into libraries anyway. How’d you do that? How’d you figure that out? The local library has an interest in the book, so they bought it. Yeah, they did. But I’m talking about other libraries. Yeah, they can all buy the book the same way. Yeah, but how do they find the library buy books? [35:18] I think buy them from the publishers normally. And if your book is self-published and they want to carry that book, because, for instance, about local history, then they’ll buy it. Yeah. I’m thinking about how do they get it out in other New York or Chicago or some other city that will be looking for nonfiction books. Publishers. You have to do every step yourself instead of being massive. Yeah. And then like Barnes & Noble and places like that to get it in, that’s hard too. You can do that locally. Those places carry my books on the website. Who does? They’re buying it from Amazon. Oh, okay. Interesting. Oh, really? Yeah. Because that’s the only place you can get it. I think I sell a couple of my, I’ve seen some people from, I think it’s through at Brafta Digital, I think’s the name of it. That’s another thing that this thing went up on that Barnes & Noble did sell a few copies of it. As a matter of fact, now that you mention it. [36:21] But it’s interesting. It’s fun. How are you ever going to get a screenplay sold if you don’t get their attention? [36:30] That’s why most people I talk to, they’re trying to figure out how to get a movie made from their book. Gangsters ask me that question. They’re like, you figure I know the answer to how to get a movie made from YouTube? and I do not have that answer. Nobody knows that. It’s hard work. Yeah, I tell them nobody knows that, the answer. It’s God. A divine being that strikes you, whether it be the Apollo or the God of Abraham, or Jesus or some higher power reaches out and touches you and says, okay, I bless you, and now you’re going to have a movie made and Robert De Niro is going to play your part. Although anymore, they don’t want De Niro to play him because they hate him now, and they want somebody else. Oh, my God. It’s always a pleasure to talk to you, Justin. Likewise, Gary. Thanks so much. If I can do anything for you here in Kansas City, and as you’re going through your thing, if you’ve got any question or anything, I’ve got that one friend, that FBI agent, that he could maybe help you with if you’re looking for a connection or something. He knows quite a little bit. And somebody else was just talking about that, looking into that, those early days. But if you do have any questions or anything that you’re stumbled about here in Kansas City, be sure and give me a call, and I’ll see if I can’t steer you to somebody. I don’t know myself. I don’t really ever look at it. Okay. Okay. Stay safe. Thank you. You too.

In Part 2, we pick up where we left off in Part 1. The "bootcamp" post-college and early career experience Hollis had at Creative Circus was interesting—she found herself seemingly taking it more seriously than many who'd come right out of a four-year program. She also balanced getting engaged and married in this time. Every year, Hollis's grad school organized portfolio reviews with advertising agencies in either New York or San Francisco. Luckily for all of us, the year it was her turn, Creative Circus took students to The City. Once here, they met folks from big firms, including one that offered her an internship. It was Hollis's first visit to San Francisco. And on that first time, I have to give her credit here—she went to North Beach, had drinks at Gino and Carlo's and pizza next door at Golden Boy. I may or may not have spent New Year's Day in a similar way last week. Just sayin'. Hollis's takeaway from that first impression? "This is a really beautiful town." We go on another sidebar at this point about the very San Francisco phenomenon of the sun blinding us (I call it "lasers"), probably because of the hills here, right? It was 2016. Her husband was working back in Georgia, but she called him up and told about the internship offer, which would last three months. He was in a meeting back East where he learned that his company's West Coast salesperson was about to quit, and he was tapped to take over. The Universe, again, spoke. The newlywed couple packed up their four-runner and headed west with their stuff and their dog. Ahead of the drive, which would end in her husband's first visit to SF, Greg's grandma told him he had an aunt in The Bay, in Walnut Creek. Aunt Suzy's house was their landing spot, from which they'd take BART into The City to look for a place of their own. Hollis had a friend from college who keyed her in on the Inner Richmond as a potential place to live. We go on yet another sidebar, this one about how Hollis grows actual vegetables at her Inner Richmond home. They found a studio on Seventh Avenue and Lake Street and moved in with their dog, Mamut. A couple years later, they moved on up to a one bedroom, where they live to this day. Hollis's internship got extended six months, which was fortunate. Her husband's job paid a Georgia salary. IYKYK. That internship became a job, and so they were able to stay, something the couple wanted to do. Her husband got a job based here, and it all worked out. I try my hardest to forget what chronology is and jump ahead, but Hollis brings us back to pre-pandemic times. Her design job was corporate-y, but she enjoyed it nonetheless. She got an animation put up in Times Square in this era. Still, owing to the buttoned-up, corporate nature of the job, she was burning out. The Creative Circus invited her back to talk to students. But yet again, Hollis ended up one-on-one with a recruiter from REI. She respected the company and gave in. A trip to Seattle, to REI HQ, later, the company offered Hollis a job on their brand team. She wasn't thrilled to be leaving her adopted home in San Francisco, but it was a good opportunity. It was January 2020. Fast-forward to March that year, and the movers were ready. Jobs were quit. Hollis and Greg had just returned to SF from a backpacking trip when REI told them that the movers were not coming, and that her job would start remotely a couple weeks out. Do y'all remember March 2020? How the lockdown was supposed to last "only" until April 1 (dude)? Yeah, so REI told Hollis that her job would be a little different than what they hired her to do. And then they told her, "Psych! JK. No job for you." (I'm paraphrasing.) Hollis did what any sane San Franciscan would do. She drove to Baker Beach, screamed at the Pacific Ocean, and came home and made a plan. She'd had a going-away party already, for fuck's sake. It was brutal. The world was upside-down. And it all turned out to be the kick in the pants she needed. Hollis started her own company. We then go into the story of the open call for art to adorn San Francisco's "I voted" stickers. The contest had come across her radar, and she filed it away for later. Then a relative sent it to her along with the suggestion that she give it a try. It turns out there were more than 600 applicants (in her estimation). The SF Department of Elections had a panel that narrowed that down to 10. And then it went to The People to decide. I remember all of this vividly. Needless to say, Hollis's design won. Hollis is also integral to the Clement Street Art Walk, which she runs with Fleetwood's Nico. The next one will be on March 19. Fall this year will see the next Clement Street Art Fair. As of our recording, she didn't have any art shows, but please browse Hollis's website of beautiful work and buy some (and sign up for her newsletter). Follow Hollis on Instagram. Or just walk down Clement Street on any given day and chances are high you'll see her. (I learned as we shot photos after our recording that Hollis designed the newly painted intersection crosswalk lines at Sixth and Clement.) We end the episode rather uniquely, for this show anyway. Hollis asks me if I have a favorite flower. You'll have to listen to find out. (#dahliatalk) Photography by Jeff Hunt

To unpack what actually happened on the ground, Amy MacIver turns to Carlo Petersen, EWN journalist, who has been tracking developments closely. From a partially restored historic route ending in Wale Street, to a memorandum handed to the provincial legislature, the parade was about more than celebration — it was also about protest, recognition, and access. At the centre of the dispute are calls from minstrel associations for transparent funding, free public parades, and fair access to venues, amid ongoing tensions between rival carnival bodies and the City.

In this special end-of-year episode of Behind the Genes, host Sharon Jones is joined by Dr Rich Scott, Chief Executive Officer of Genomics England, to reflect on the past year at Genomics England, and to look ahead to what the future holds.  Together, they revisit standout conversations from across the year, exploring how genomics is increasingly embedded in national health strategy, from the NHS 10-Year Health Plan to the government's ambitions for the UK life sciences sector. Rich reflects on the real-world impact of research, including thousands of diagnoses returned to the NHS, progress in cancer and rare condition research, and the growing momentum of the Generation Study, which is exploring whether whole genome sequencing could be offered routinely at birth.  This episode offers a thoughtful reflection on how partnership, innovation, and public trust are shaping the future of genomic healthcare in the UK and why the years ahead promise to be even more exciting.  Below are the links to the podcasts mentioned in this episode, in order of appearance:  How are families and hospitals bringing the Generation Study to life? How can cross-sector collaborations drive responsible use of AI for genomic innovation? How can we enable ethical and inclusive research to thrive? How can parental insights transform care for rare genetic conditions? How can we unlock the potential of large-scale health datasets? Can patient collaboration shape the future of therapies for rare conditions? https://www.genomicsengland.co.uk/podcasts/what-can-we-learn-from-the-generation-study “There is this view set out there where as many as half of all health interactions by 2035 could be informed by genomics or other similar advanced analytics, and we think that is a really ambitious challenge, but also a really exciting one.”  You can download the transcript, or read it below. Sharon: Hello, and welcome to Behind the Genes.   Rich: This is about improving health outcomes, but it's also part of a broader benefit to the country because the UK is recognised already as a great place from a genomics perspective. We think playing our role in that won't just bring the health benefits, it also will secure the country's position as the best place in the world to discover, prove, and where proven roll out benefit from genomic innovations and we think it's so exciting to be part of that team effort.  Sharon: I'm Sharon Jones, and today I'll be joined by Rich Scott, Chief Executive Officer at Genomics England for this end of year special. We'll be reflecting on some of the conversations from this year's episodes, and Rich will be sharing his insights and thoughts for the year ahead. If you enjoyed this episode, we'd love your support, so please subscribe, rate, and share on your favourite podcast app. So, let's get started.  Thanks for joining me today, Rich. How are you?  Rich: Great, it's really good to be here.   Sharon: It's been a really exciting year for Genomics England. Can you tell us a bit about what's going on?  Rich: Yeah, it's been a really busy year, and we'll dive into a few bits of the components we've been working on really hard. One really big theme for us is it's been really fantastic to see genomics at the heart of the government's thinking. As we'll hear later, genomics is at the centre of the new NHS 10-year health plan, and the government's life sciences sector plan is really ambitious in terms of thinking about how genomics could play a role in routine everyday support of healthcare for many people across the population in the future and it shows a real continued commitment to support the building of the right infrastructure, generating the right evidence to inform that, and to do that in dialogue with the public and patients, and it's great to see us as a key part of that.  It's also been a really great year as we've been getting on with the various programmes that we've got, so our continued support of the NHS and our work with researchers accessing the National Genomic Research Library. It's so wonderful to see the continued stream of diagnoses and actionable findings going back to the NHS. It's been a really exciting year in terms of research, publications. In cancer, some really exciting publications on, for example, breast cancer and clinical trials. Really good partnership work with some industry partners, really supporting their work. For me, one of the figures we are always really pleased to see go up with time is the number of diagnoses that we can return thanks to research that's ongoing in the research library, so now we've just passed 5,000 diagnostic discoveries having gone back to the NHS, it really helps explain for me how working both with clinical care and with research and linking them really comes to life and why it's so vital.   And then, with our programmes, it's been great to see the Generation Study making good progress. So, working with people across the country, more than 25,000 families now recruited to the study, and we're beginning to hear about their experiences, including some of the families who've received findings from the programme. It's really nice to see and hear from Freddie's family, who talked to the press a bit about the finding that they received. Freddie was at increased risk of a rare eye cancer, and really pleasingly, it was possible to detect that early through the screening that was put in place. Again, it really brings to life why we're doing this, to make a difference and improve health outcomes.  Sharon: That's an incredible 12 months. Diving into that Generation Study piece and for listeners who don't know what that is, it's a research study in partnership with the NHS that aims to sequence the genomes of 100,000 newborn babies. On an episode from earlier in the year, we had mum, Rachel Peck, join the conversation, whose baby Amber is enrolled on a study. Let's year from Rachel now.  Rachel: From the parents' point of view, I guess that's the hardest thing to consent for in terms of you having to make a decision on behalf of your unborn child. But I think why we thought that was worthwhile was that could potentially benefit Amber personally herself or if not, there's the potential it could benefit other children.  Sharon: Consent has been such a big area of focus for us, Rich, and Rachel touches on that complexity, you know, making a decision on behalf of her unborn child. Can you talk a bit about our approach to consent in the Generation Study and what's evolving in that model?  Rich: Yeah. It's been for the whole study, really, starting out asking a really big question here, what we're aiming to do is generate evidence on whether and if so, how whole genome sequencing should be offered routinely at birth, and that's responding to a really ill need that we know that each year thousands of babies are born in the UK with treatable rare conditions. We will also need to see if whole genome sequencing can make a difference for those families, but we realise to do that, as with all screening, that involves testing more people than are going to benefit from it directly themselves. So, you have to approach it really sensitively. There's lots of complicated questions, lots of nuance in the study overall. One of them is thinking really carefully about that consent process so that families can understand the choices, they can understand the benefits and risks. This is still a research study. We're looking to understand whether we should offer this routinely. It's not part of routine care at this point. The evidence will help decision-makers, policymakers in the future decide that.  At the beginning of the programme, we spent a lot of time talking to families, talking to health professionals who understand the sorts of decisions that people are making at that time of life, but also are experts in helping think about how you balance that communication. That involved, as I say, a lot of conversations. We learnt a lot, lots of it practical stuff, about the stage of pregnancy that people are at when we first talk to them about the study, so that people aren't hurried and make this decision. What we've learnt in the study, right from the outset, is talking to people from midway through the pregnancy so that they really have time to engage in it and think about their choice. So, it's an important part of getting the study design right so that we run the study right. It's also a really crucial element of the evidence that will generate from the study so that we can understand if this is something that's adopted, how should we communicate about it to families. What would they want to know? What's the right level of information and how do we make that accessible in a way that is meaningful to people from different backgrounds, with different levels of interest, different accessibility in terms of digital and reading and so on. There's a lot that we've learnt along the way and there's a lot that we're still learning. And as I say, important things that we'll present as evidence later on.  Sharon: Thank you. It's fascinating there are so many moving parts and a lot to consider when you're building the design of a programme like this or study like this.  Earlier in the year you had a great conversation with Karim Beguir about the developments of AI in genomics. Let's revisit that moment.  Karim: We live in an extraordinary time. I want to emphasise the potential of scientific discovery in the next two or three years. AI is going to move, let's say, digital style technologies like coding and math towards more like science and biology. In particular, genomics is going to be a fascinating area in terms of potential.  Sharon: So, Karim talks about AI moving from maths and coding into biology. Why is genomics such a natural area for AI?  Rich: It's really fascinating. I think it links a lot to how we think about genomics and how you get the most value in terms of health benefit and sort of the progress that we can see could come through genomics more generally. So, your genome, which is your DNA code, written in 3 billion little letters across each one of us, one copied from mum, one copied from dad, even just our genomic code of one person is a large amount of data. That is just part of the story because we're not just interested in DNA for DNA's sake, this is about thinking about health and how we can improve health outcomes. So, it's also thinking about the other sorts of information that needs to link to genomic data to make a difference. Whether that's just to provide routine healthcare with today's knowledge, or whether it's about continuing to learn and discover.  As I mentioned at the beginning, I think a really important part of this whole picture is we've learnt a lot in the last 20/30/40 plus years about genomics. It's incredible how much progress has been made, and we're really just scratching the surface. Take rare disease and the progress that's been made there, it's wonderful how many more families we're able to help today. We know that many thousands of families we still can't find a diagnosis for when we know that there is one there for many of them. That theme of ongoing learning is at the centre of all of our work, and that will continue as we look about broader uses of genomics in other settings beyond rare conditions and cancer. It's also that ongoing learning, but also the amount of, at the moment, manual steps that are required in some of the processes that we need to, for example, find a diagnosis for someone or to make sure the tools that we use are the most up to date, the most up to date with the medical literature, for example. AI is a tool that we're, as the whole of the society, we're beginning to see how it can play a role. We see it as important today for some of the just really practical things. I mentioned it, staying up to date with the medical literature, making sure that we and our systems are aware of all of the knowledge that's coming in from around the world. It's got real potential there.  I think the biggest bottom line here is that it's got the potential to be a really important tool in terms of our ongoing learning and improvement. I'm a doctor by background, the human intelligence alone is fantastic, it's moved us a long way, but we know it also has tremendous blind spots. AI has the potential to complement us there. I guess another thing to really call out here, AI isn't a panacea, it's not suddenly going to answer all of the questions. And, just like human intelligence, it will have its own biases, have its own strong points, and less strong points.  One of the things we're really committed to is working with people like Karim, and many others, to understand where AI could make a difference, to test it, to generate evidence on how well it works and an understanding in all sorts of ways about how that might play out. And, make sure that as AI becomes a tool, that we in genomics, but also in other areas, we understand its strong points and where we need to be more careful and cautious with it. That's a really important part of what we're going to be doing in the coming years here, is making sure that we can maximise the impact of it, but also be confident, so that we can explain to people whose data we might use it on how we're doing it and what it's bringing.  Sharon: Thanks Rich. It's definitely a fast-moving conversation of which we really want to be part of. One of the things that's come up again and again this year is participation and co-production. Let's hear quote that really captures that.  Bobbie: In an earlier conversation with Paul, which you might find surprising that it's stuck with me so much, he used the word ‘extractive'. He said that he'd been involved in research before and looking back on it, he had felt at times it could be a little bit extractive. You come in, you ask questions, you take the data away and analyse it, and it might only be by chance that the participants ever know what became of things next. One of the real principles of this project was always going to be co-production and true collaboration with our participants.  Sharon: That was Professor Bobbie Farsides talking about moving away from extractive research towards true co-production. How are we making that shift in practice here at Genomics England?  Rich: It's a great question. It's one of the areas where I think we've learnt most as an organisation over the years about how really engaging from the beginning with potential participants in programmes, participants who join our programmes, people who are involved in delivering our programmes and healthcare is so important at the beginning. I mentioned earlier the work to think about the consent process for the Generation Study, and that's one of the areas where I think from our first programme, 100,000 Genomes Project, we learnt a lot about how to do that well, some of the pitfalls, some of the bits that are most challenging. And really, right from the start of our programmes, making sure that people who will potentially benefit from the programmes, potentially join them, can be part of that engagement process, and really part of the design and the shaping of the research questions, the parameters around research, but also the materials and how people will engage with them. And that's one of the key capabilities we have internally as an organisation, so we work with partners externally, but also it's a really key part of the team that we have at Genomics England.  Sharon: So, whilst Bobbie talked about moving away from research that can feel one-sided and towards true collaboration, in another episode, Lindsay, a parent of a child with a rare condition, reflected on what that change really means for families and how it's empowering to see their voices and experiences shaping future treatments.  Lindsay: Historically, there's been a significant absence of a patient voice in rare disease research and development. And knowing that that's changing, I think that's really empowering for families. To know that professionals and industry are actually listening to our stories and our needs and really trying to understand, that offers much greater impact on the care and treatments of patients in the future.  Sharon: So, what role do you see participants as partners in shaping the next phase of Genomics England's work?  Rich: So, as you probably detected from my last answer, we see it as absolutely vital. One of the really exciting things here at Genomics England, we've had a participant panel from very early in our life as an organisation. That's one really important route to us at the heart of our organisation, part of our governance, making sure that participants representing all sorts of parts of our programme, but rare conditions being a really large focus for us. And I think, what's so striking as someone with a medical and a research background can see how I think historically medics and researchers have sometimes not known, sort of maybe been a bit scared about knowing how to involve participants from the outset. Often, because they're worried that they might ask the wrong questions in the wrong way, they just don't have the tools.   One of the things I often say now to people we work with is one of the most empowering and positive experiences we have at Genomics England is the power of our participants helping to, right from the beginning, shape what the questions are that we should be asking. Realise some of the challenges that you can't possibly, if you're not in their shoes, understand are the most important to really shape how we prioritise our work internally, the problems that we need to solve first, how we think about some of the practical impacts on people's lives that, again, without hearing from their voice you just wouldn't know. And again, to help our researchers, people accessing data in the National Genomic Research Library, helping them make sure that they involve participants in their work and the confidence and tools to do that.  Sharon: That's great, thank you. Another big theme this year has been collaboration across the NHS, academia, and industry. Dr Raghib Ali puts this really well.  Raghib: There are areas where academia and the NHS are very strong, and there are areas where industry is very strong, and why working together, as we saw, you know, very good examples during the pandemic with the vaccine and diagnostic tests, etc., a collaboration between the NHS, academia, and industry leads to much more rapid and wider benefits for our patients and, hopefully, in the future for the population as a whole in terms of early detection and prevention of disease.  Sharon: So, how does collaboration fit into the 10-year health plan and what's next for 2026 in that space, Rich?  Rich: I think one of the most enjoyable parts of my role at Genomics England and our role as an organisation is the fact that we see ourselves very much as part of a, sort of team across the UK and in fact internationally in terms of delivering on the potential we see for genomics. So, we have a vision as an organisation, which has been the same the last 5 or so years, which is a world where everyone can benefit from genomic healthcare. In fact, that vision is now shared by the NHS from a genomics perspective, and really demonstrably, the 2 parts of the system absolutely pointing in the same direction. And when we've been thinking, looking forward with that 10-year lens on it, what we always like to do, and I think it's a real privilege to be able to do, because we're here in the UK, because we have a National Health Service, because there's been that long-term commitment from government on genomics and really taking a long-term investment view there, and because of so many other parts of the ecosystem, other experts who access data in the National Genomic Research Library, research organisations like Our Future Health, UK Biobank, all teaming together, and the expertise that's there in genomics more broadly. So we've, if you like, worked back from what the UK could do as whole, and in the 10-year health plan, as I said earlier, genomics is at the heart of that.  There's a double helix on the front cover and, in fact, on the watermark on almost every page. And, there's this view set out there where as many as half of all health interactions by 2035 could be informed by genomics or other similar advanced analytics. And we think that that's a really ambitious challenge. We see a really important role for us, as Genomics England, in contributing to that, but it's very much a team effort. Our role is around where we have the biggest capabilities, so around building and running digital infrastructure at a national scale for healthcare delivery and for research, to building evidence to inform future policies, so running programmes like the Generation Study to inform future policy. And really, as part of that, that evidence piece, being driven by engagement, ethics, and work on equity, to really make sure that evidence that future policy can be built on is informed by a fully rounded view. We think if we do that right that we could as a country with others, the NHS, research organisations, many others could live up to that ambition that's set out there in the 10-year plan.   And the 10-year plan is really clear, and government is really clear that this is about improving health outcomes. But it's also part of a broader benefit to the country because the UK is recognised already as a great place from a genomics perspective. We think playing our role in that won't just bring the health benefits, it also will secure the country's position as the best place in the world to discover, prove and where proven role out benefit from genomic innovations. And we think it's so exciting to be part of that team effort.  Sharon: So, Genomics England's refreshed mission and direction of travel is really setting out how we move from research to routine care, and how we embed genomics across the health system. Carlo Rinaldi captured the idea perfectly, imagining a future where diagnosis and hope arrive hand in hand.  Carlo: My dream is that in five to ten years' time an individual with a rare disease is identified in the clinic, perhaps even before symptoms have manifested. At that exact time the day of the diagnosis becomes also a day of hope, in a way, where immediately the researcher, the genetic labs, flags that specific variant, that specific mutation. We know exactly which is the best genetic therapy to go after.   Sharon: And Rich, what are your thoughts on that?  Rich: I think Carlo captures it really well. And for us, I think a really big theme is for that potential for genomics to make a difference, a continued and in fact increased difference for people with rare conditions and cancer, areas where it's already making a difference, but also with the potential to make a much broader impact for people across the population. The real theme is embedding genomics into routine care, making it something that you don't need to know that you're seeing an expert in genomics to benefit from it, really make sure that those benefits can be felt as just part of routine care. It's not something separate where we recognise that the best healthcare is healthcare that's supported by all sorts of inputs, with genomics being a key part of that, and that we can continue to learn as we do that. So that with people's consent, with their understanding of how their data is being used, we know that if we don't have the best answer for them today, we give the best answer we can today, and we can continue to learn, and they can benefit from that in the future.   I'm a rare disease doctor by background, and one of the really most enjoyable parts of my job is seeing that come to practice. In the last year or so I've had a number of families where I've been seeing the family for years, and a researcher accessing data in the National Genomic Research library has found an answer that we've not been able to find for maybe their child's whole life, and then finally we're able to feed it back. Seeing that come to life is just so wonderful, and I think gives us a bit of a blueprint for how things could work more generally.  Sharon: That's great. I mean, what a feeling for those families who do get those answers. As we look ahead to 2026 and beyond, the conversation is starting to include prevention, using genomics not just to diagnose conditions but to predict and treat and even prevent them. Alice Tuff-Lacey summarised this nicely in an episode about Generation Study.  Alice: This is quite an exciting shift in how we use whole genome sequencing, because what we're talking about is using it in a much more preventative way. Traditionally where we've been using it is diagnostically where we know someone's sick and they've got symptoms of rare condition, and we're looking to see what they might have. What we're actually talking about is screening babies from birth using their genome to see if they're at risk of a particular condition. And what this means is this raises quite a lot of complex ethical, operational, and scientific and clinical questions.  Sharon: Rich, when you think about 2026, what's your biggest hope for where we'll be this time next year?  Rich: I think it's a really exciting time. As you can tell from how we've been speaking, I'm really excited about the direction of travel and how over the next 5 and 10 years we can really make a transformational shift because of how well placed we are in the UK from a genomics perspective. Where we are with today's knowledge, where we could be because of the continued government and NHS commitment to genomics being at the heart of this, if we build the right infrastructure, if we generate the right evidence to inform what's adopted, I think we're in a really exciting place.  From a 2026 perspective, I think what we're really committed to is continuing to do the work, the day-by-day-by-day work that is to build that incrementally. So, a really big focus for us is continuing to support the NHS and making sure researchers can access data, so that flow of answers for families can continue and grow, accelerate, to continue delivering the Generation Study because it's a really important part of that wider jigsaw to generate the evidence that can inform future policy on whether this is something that's adopted and offered routinely to every child when they're born.  I think a really important time now that the government's provided the opportunity for us as a team, as a UK genomics and life sciences ecosystem, is to really put in place some of the next steps, the building blocks that can take us towards that 10-year vision. So for us also, a really important part of the year is beginning the design process for an adult population genomics programme, where we're looking at what evidence it's important that we can provide that's complementary to different work around by others in the ecosystem that needs to be there if we're going to think about that potential broader use of genomics.  Sharon: That's great. It sounds like another exciting year ahead. So, we're going to wrap up there. Thank you to Rich Scott for sharing your reflections on the key milestones this year, and for your thoughts on the year ahead.

Yet again, I helped one of my clients have the lightbulb moment that publishing a book isn't about selling copies. The benefit of a book is how it opens doors. The moment your book hits the world, it becomes a beacon, drawing opportunities you might never have considered. Many authors find that beyond book sales, their work leads to speaking engagements, networking breakthroughs, consulting roles, and other unexpected ways to grow their influence. Your book can position you as an expert, a thought leader, and a sought-after voice in your industry—all while building meaningful connections with those you can impact most. But you need to be ready to seize these opportunities. It's why I work with authors to develop strategies for maximizing the impact of their books—so every opportunity is met with intention and purpose. Want to talk more about how your book can open doors? Visit www.BookLaunchBrainstorm.com to schedule a complimentary 30-minute book launch (or relaunch) brainstorming session. Now, let's dive into the milestones reached and lessons learned by our panelists … Michelle Tillis Lederman wrote “The Connector's Advantage: 7 Mindsets to Grow Your Influence and Impact” to help guide you in building powerful, inclusive relationships that accelerate success, open doors, and create lasting impact, no matter your career stage or goals. Carlo Mahfouz wrote “Reality Check: In Pursuit of the Right Questions” to help leaders, innovators, and curious minds master the art of asking the right questions at the right time, unlocking clarity, self-awareness, and strategic insight in the face of change. Please join me in welcoming Carlo and Michelle.  In this episode, we discuss the following:

In this explosive episode of Gangland Wire, host Gary Jenkins sits down with actor, entrepreneur, and mob insider Gianni “Johnny” Russo, best known for his unforgettable role as Carlo Rizzi in The Godfather. Russo pulls back the curtain on a lifetime of stories that stretch from Frank Costello and Joe Colombo to Las Vegas skimming, the Vatican Bank, Marilyn Monroe, Jimmy Hoffa, and even Pablo Escobar. Russo discusses his new book, Mafia Secrets: Untold Tales from the Hollywood Godfather, co-written with Michael Benson—an unfiltered account of power, violence, politics, and survival inside the criminal underworld and Hollywood royalty. This is not recycled mythology—this is Gianni Russo's personal version of history from the inside. Whether you believe every word or not, the stories are raw, violent, and utterly fascinating. This episode discusses: The Godfather, The Kennedy assassinations, Vegas skimming, Marilyn Monroe, Jimmy Hoffa, the Chicago Outfit, Pablo Escobar

Barry always gets it confused with Counterpart Brewing in Niagara Falls, Ontario.Carlo told the story of Shirley Manson calling Chrissie Hynde of The Pretenders to ask permission to use the lyrics “We were the talk of the town” in Special, since Manson had pulled those lyrics from The Pretenders' Talk of the Town.

I'm excited to talk to Carlo Rotella today. Carlo is Professor of English at Boston College. His books include The World Is Always Coming to an End: Pulling Together and Apart in a Chicago Neighborhood (University of Chicago Press, 2019); Playing in Time: Essays, Profiles, and Other True Stories (University of Chicago Press, 2012); Cut Time: An Education at the Fights (Houghton Mifflin, 2003); and October Cities (University of California Press, 1998). He has written for the New York Times, The Boston Globe, The New Yorker, and Harper's. Today, we discuss Carlo's new book, What Can I Get Out of This?: Teaching and Learning in a Classroom Full of Skeptics (University of California Press, 2025). The book does two things. It directly reports what happened in a class Carlo taught in the spring of 2020. Carlo interviews students in the semesters after the class ended, learning what students were going through while they were taking your class, and also what stood out in their memories years later. The second thing the book does is offer hands-on lessons from a life of teaching. Throughout the book, Carlo discusses how to deal with a class that hates the novel that you assigned, how to reach out to a student who falls silent, and how to introduce the multitude of ways of being enthusiastic about literature to skeptical students.

War Gaming a Russian Invasion of Estonia: NATO's Article 5 Crisis — General Blaine Holt — General Holtdiscusses a scenario derived from Carlo Masala's book If Russia Wins, depicting Russian military seizure of the Estonian town of Narva in 2028 using ambiguous hybrid tactics. Holt emphasizes that this scenario exposes NATO'sfundamental bureaucratic paralysis, organizational hesitation to invoke Article 5 collective defense provisions, and the catastrophic risk of nuclear miscalculation when confronting strategically ambiguous Russian aggression that blurs the distinction between conventional military action and state-sponsored covert operations. 1927 POLAND
