E dopo l'allarme furti in casa, oggi Angelo Paura ci parla dell'accordo tra Cina e Stati Uniti che arriva attraverso un minuscolo microchip che vale 3 trilioni di dollari, quindi l'ampia pagina di cronaca che parte con Anna Guaita da Rio De Jainero dove il blitz della polizia contro il cartello della droga formato da ex guerriglieri e criminali comuni ha già portato a cento morti, dal Brasile all'Aquila con Michele Milletti e Marcello Ianni per quella che sembra la trama di un film: gli inquilini spiati dalle telecamere nascoste negli spechi dei bagni, con le inviate Federica Pozzi e Lucia Urbani torniamo a Roma dove è uscita dal coma la testimone chiave per capire la morte di Bibbi la ragazza travolta sulla Colombo forse per una gara tra auto truccate, e chiudiamo con la storia di sport di Massimo Boccucci che oggi ci parla della giornata di serie A e di partite decise sempre meno dalla bravura dei giocatori.
It's an unbelievable hour on The Joe Pags Show! Joe dives into the NBA gambling scandal shaking the sports world — and who better to explain it than Michael Franzese, former caporegime of the Colombo crime family and one of the most fascinating figures in modern mafia history. Franzese gives insider details on how organized crime still operates today, why the mob always finds its way into sports betting, and how his family managed to stay out of this latest scandal. It's a jaw-dropping deep dive that connects the dots between power, money, and corruption in sports — straight from someone who lived it. Plus, Joe rips into Gavin Newsom's latest attempt to play “man of the people”, calls out AOC's unhinged mic rant, and laughs off talk of Curtis Sliwa stepping down — Pags says, not a chance. It's fast, fiery, and full of real talk — an hour that'll keep you hooked from start to finish! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Quasi 10 milioni di abitazioni in Italia sono disabitate, ossia il 27,2% del totale, secondo due report di Ifel e Oxfam Italia, nonostante ci sia una forte crisi dei prezzi dell'affitto e questo provochi enormi tensioni sociali e economiche. È cominciata la pre-Cop30 a Brasilia, per anticipare i temi della Cop30 che si terrà tra un mese sempre in Brasile, a Belém: gli impegni per il multilateralismo e la finanza climatica, però, stentano a decollare. A Madrid, due attiviste di Futuro Vegetal hanno lanciato della vernice su un quadro raffigurante Cristoforo Colombo durante la festa nazionale a lui intitolata, sollevando di nuovo il dibattito su quanto queste azioni possano arrivare fuori dalla bolla di riferimento.

In this episode of Gangland Wire, retired Kansas City Police Intelligence Detective Gary Jenkins pulls back the curtain on one of the FBI's most troubling scandals—the case of Joe Stabile, a corrupt FBI agent whose fall from grace revealed just how deep organized crime's influence could run. The story begins in November 1978, when Stabile pled guilty to corruption charges. But as Gary explains, that plea was only the tip of the iceberg. Behind it lay years of whispered rumors, shady deals, and quiet payoffs—stories that painted Stabile not as a straight-arrow G-man, but as a hustler working both sides of the law. Drawing on conversations with retired FBI agents who once worked alongside Stabile, Gary explores the tangled web of mob connections and compromised investigations. Listeners will hear how mobsters slipped him bribes to make gambling cases disappear, and how his background as a New York City cop may have set the stage for the choices that pulled him deeper into the mob's orbit. The episode also highlights the work of honest agents, such as Tony Villano, who began piecing together the truth about Stabile's corruption. Through case files, informant accounts, and law enforcement interviews, Gary demonstrates how the FBI struggled with a culture of silence that often protected its own—even when integrity was at stake. As the story unfolds, the lines between right and wrong blur, exposing systemic cracks inside federal law enforcement during a time when the Bureau was shifting its focus and fighting for credibility. Gary closes with reflections on the lasting impact of the Stabile case: what it meant for the FBI's war on organized crime, and how Stabile himself may have continued to live in the shadows after his conviction—a man caught between two worlds, crime and law enforcement, never fully belonging to either. This is a must-listen for true crime fans, Mafia historians, and anyone fascinated by how organized crime once ruled the Jersey Shore.

Now, you don't hear about this very much. I know a couple of three here in Kansas City over the years that got popped for doing something. A couple of them were involved in a stolen party or a stolen property ring. A couple of others were one of them was just running his mouth too much and he was drinking too much.

What really happened on 9/11 when a New Jersey home became a frenzied trading floor as the World Trade Center went silent? Guest Don Caprio takes us inside that day, connecting its ripple effects to Italian American heritage, family legacies, and the way history is remembered.

We break down the key moments that shifted momentum: Athapaththu's record-breaking 178* against Australia, Harmanpreet Kaur's iconic 171* in the semi-final, and Anya Shrubsole's spell that sealed England's fourth title.Through tactical insights, player narratives, and behind-the-scenes context, we ask: what made 2017 the turning point for women's cricket?

Che succede alla figura del detective? Lo discutiamo in questa edizione speciale del podcast di Mondoserie. Che riporta l'intervista a quattro voci registrata giovedì 4 settembre 2025 negli studi di Radio Voice, in occasione della conferenza inaugurale della rassegna Connessioni Contemporanee, a cura della redazione di Bassanonet.In studio, intervistati da BAT (direttore Radio Voice) e LAURA (Bassanonet), due voci (e firme) storiche di Mondoserie: Jacopo Bulgarini d'Elci e Livio Pacella. La conferenza, dal titolo “Il detective si è perso?”, tenutasi quella stessa sera in Sala Martinovich a Bassano del Grappa (VI) come atto di apertura dell'evento intitolato "Un mondo in serie?", è opera di Jacopo Bulgarini d'Elci (direttore di Mondoserie), con interventi attoriali di Livio Pacella.Tema della serata, e quindi dell'intervista, le serie televisive come linguaggio artistico e culturale contemporaneo, con un focus sulla figura del detective. Tra tradizione, per così dire, e innovazione. Partendo dalle origini letterarie del giallo: dall'Edipo della tragedia greca al Dale Cooper di Twin Peaks, per intenderci. Passando ovviamente per Sherlock Holmes, Poirot, il tenente Colombo e True Detective…Leggi il nostro articolo sull'evoluzione del detective: https://www.mondoserie.it/detective/ Parte del progetto: https://www.mondoserie.it/Radio Voice: http://www.radiovoice.it/ Iscriviti al podcast sulla tua piattaforma preferita o su: https://www.spreaker.com/show/mondoserie-podcast Collegati a MONDOSERIE sui social:https://www.facebook.com/mondoserie https://www.instagram.com/mondoserie.it/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwXpMjWOcPbFwdit0QJNnXQ https://www.linkedin.com/in/mondoserie/
How can military-honed resilience and positive psychology supercharge physician leadership? In this episode of Bootstrap MD, host Dr. Mike Woo-Ming interviews Dr. Christopher Colombo, as he shares his path from elementary school dreams of medicine to active-duty training, and his post-retirement "Lego break" before embracing part-time ICU night shifts and executive coaching. Inspired by a fellow physician's transition, he pursued training in executive and positive psychology coaching to address the personal-professional overlaps that frustrated him—like compartmentalizing life domains without recognizing the "you" as the common denominator. The discussion dives into military lessons on resilience (e.g., Army-adopted programs from UPenn's Barbara Fredrickson), the pitfalls of large-organization training, and why authenticity matters in leadership. Dr. Colombo offers mindset shifts for new leaders: acknowledge emotions and relationships, control primitive responses via storytelling, and use techniques like drafting "flame emails" to yourself. He emphasizes building trust through personal "why" alignment and avoiding cognitive traps like "should" or "must." A vital listen for physicians eyeing leadership or coaching, blending clinical credibility with life-changing insights. Three Actionable Takeaways: Acknowledge Emotions in Leadership – Suppress less, embrace more: Build relationships by understanding your team's personal "why" and framing missions accordingly. Control reactions by pausing to re-story stimuli (e.g., "That driver isn't plotting against me") before responding. Draft 'Flame Emails' to Yourself – When rage hits from an email, reply to your own address, vent fully, then step away. Return calmer to craft (or delegate) a measured response—preventing regrettable sends and honing emotional regulation. Pursue Authentic Alignment – Identify your core values (e.g., excellence over winning) to bridge personal and professional life. Seek a "cognitive sparring" partner for breakthroughs, ensuring you're effective, not just right.

In this gripping episode of Gangland Wire, retired intelligence detective Gary Jenkins sits down with author Jonathan Dyer to explore one of the most complex and dangerous figures in Mafia history—Greg Scarpa, the Colombo family enforcer known as The Grim Reaper. Dyer, whose career spans military intelligence, law, and education, brings deep insight into Scarpa's remarkable—and chilling—dual role as both a ruthless mob killer and a prized FBI top echelon informant. Together, Gary and Jonathan unpack the moral ambiguities, betrayals, and calculated violence that defined Scarpa's career in the turbulent world of organized crime. Listeners will hear: How Scarpa balanced loyalty to the mob with his covert cooperation with the FBI. The structured, almost corporate way his crew operated—and how he enforced discipline with fear and bloodshed. The darker corners of his personal life, including family ties, marriages, and the impact of his choices on his children. The violent episodes, such as the murder of Mary Bari, underscore his brutality and the Mafia's code of protection. From Cold War–era law enforcement collusion to the inner workings of New York's underworld, this episode reveals how Scarpa manipulated both sides of the law to maintain power. Jonathan Dyer's latest book, Greg Scarpa: Legendary Evil, offers the foundation for a conversation that will leave you questioning where law enforcement ends and organized crime begins.

This is Gary Jenkins, an entire Kansas City, Missouri police detective. Worked at the Organized Crime Unit or the Intelligence Unit for many years. And now I've got a podcast and we're all about the organized crime. As you guys know, all you regular guys and for new people, it's all about organized crime, particularly the Italian mafia in the United States. Now, I have an author here today, Jonathan Dyer. And Jonathan, I really am excited about having you on here because you have a different take about a much cussed and discussed subject or person, Gregory the Grim Reaper Scarpa. So welcome, Jonathan. Thanks, Gary. Thanks for having me. So tell the guys a little bit about yourself, a little bit about your background. Where'd you come from other than Marshall? We found out we have similar backgrounds, Marshall, Missouri, rural Missouri, farm life and Kansas City. So tell the guys a little bit about yourself. Well, in 1981, Gary, I joined the Army and spent about a year and a half in Monterey Defense Language Institute learning Russian. [1:10] After that, I went to Goodfellow Air Force Base for some cryptologic training. And then after that, I went to the National Security Agency in Fort Meade for some more training and then shipped overseas to Berlin for three years trying to keep tabs on the Soviet Army during the Cold War. After the Army, I entered law school at UC Davis in California. And after law school, I practiced law for about 10 years as a civil litigator. And then in 1999, I switched careers and became a teacher and taught government and U.S. History and criminal law and retired during the pandemic. And now I live in central Texas. Interesting. [1:52] This is off the subject a little bit, but I've always been curious about that language school.
Welcome to Cryptic Chronicles. Today I am joined by legendary author Jonathan Dyer (links below). In this episode, we're stepping into the violent, shadowy world of Gregory Scarpa Sr.—the Colombo family enforcer known as The Grim Reaper. Scarpa was a man who lived a double life: a ruthless Mafia killer who also served as a longtime FBI informant, blurring the line between crime and justice for nearly three decades. To help unravel this paradox, I'm joined by Jonathan Dyer, author of the new book Greg Scarpa: Legendary Evil, which dives deep into the chilling story of one of organized crime's most dangerous figures and the corruption that shielded him.

Gregory Scarpa, known as “The Grim Reaper,” was a feared capo in the Colombo crime family and one of the most violent figures in the American Mafia. Rising to prominence in Brooklyn during the 1950s, Scarpa became infamous for his ruthless efficiency as a hitman—credited with dozens, if not hundreds, of murders. He ran rackets involving extortion, loan sharking, gambling, and narcotics, while maintaining a reputation as a stylish and brazen enforcer. His willingness to use extreme violence made him indispensable during the Colombo family's bloody internal wars, where he played a decisive role in eliminating rivals and consolidating power for his faction.Scarpa's criminal empire, however, was shadowed by his double life as a longtime FBI informant. Beginning in the early 1960s, he secretly collaborated with federal agents, reportedly even participating in the search for missing civil rights workers in Mississippi during the “Mississippi Burning” case. His relationship with the Bureau deepened in the 1980s under FBI agent Lindley DeVecchio, a partnership that sparked controversy amid claims the FBI allowed Scarpa to operate with impunity in exchange for intelligence. In 1986, he contracted HIV through a tainted blood transfusion, and by the early 1990s, he was terminally ill. Scarpa pleaded guilty to multiple murders in 1993 and died in prison in 1994 from AIDS-related complications—leaving behind a legacy as both one of the Mafia's deadliest killers and one of the FBI's most compromised informants.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.theguardian.com/world/2007/oct/31/usa.international
