Harvard Law Professor Jack Goldsmith didn't just study organized crime—he lived it. As the son of a notorious mob lawyer and stepson of a hitman, Goldsmith had unprecedented access to the inner workings of America's most powerful criminal organization. Now, his explosive revelations about Jimmy Hoffa's disappearance connect to a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of government and explains how the mob didn't just influence labor unions—they infiltrated the entire American power structure.This isn't just another Hoffa theory from an outsider. Goldsmith's family connections gave him access to conversations, documents, and secrets that most researchers could never obtain. We're talking about firsthand knowledge of how the mob operated, who gave the orders, and why Hoffa's elimination was just the beginning of a systematic takeover that continues to this day.Our explosive investigation reveals how Goldsmith's unique position allowed him to uncover connections between organized crime families, government agencies, and corporate power structures that most people would find impossible to believe. The rise and fall of the mob wasn't just about bootlegging and gambling—it was about creating a shadow government that could control labor, politics, and information flow across America. From his insider knowledge of mob operations to his later work in government intelligence, Goldsmith witnessed how the same networks that made Hoffa disappear also influence elections, suppress investigations, and maintain control over American institutions. Mystery enthusiasts and truth-seekers know that some witnesses have access to information that others can only speculate about—and this episode proves why Goldsmith's testimony is so dangerous. We'll reveal how labor unions became the mob's gateway to controlling entire industries, how Hoffa's murder connected to ongoing government operations, and how the supposed "fall" of organized crime was actually just their evolution into more sophisticated forms of control. The mob didn't disappear—they went legitimate and became even more powerful. From union halls to government offices, from corporate boardrooms to university lecture halls, this episode exposes how one man's family connections allowed him to document the greatest conspiracy in American labor history. Goldsmith's revelations aren't just academic research—they're insider testimony from someone who grew up in the world that most people only see in movies. The rise and fall of the mob is really the story of how organized crime became organized government, and Goldsmith's unique perspective reveals how this transformation shaped modern America in ways that most citizens never realize.

The Treaty Negotiations Minister admits people are losing patience on a Ngāpuhi settlement, but says they want it to last. New Zealand First is launching a Bill, proposing a one-and-done treaty settlement for the largest iwi, rather than multiple hapu settlements. Paul Goldsmith says that although he sympathises with the desire for a faster resolution, if you want an enduring settlement, you need people to be prepared to settle. He told Mike Hosking that the settlement has to have the support of around 200,000 to 300,000 people, which has been the challenge in the past. Goldsmith says that they have a good plan now, and they're making good progress on the work that's currently underway. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Is Shane Jones showing the Minister for Treaty Negotiations Paul Goldsmith how to run his own portfolio? In response to Jones and his Member's bill on the never ending Ngāpuhi drama, Goldsmith says the process can't go on forever. Which is the same as saying nothing, because clearly it is, and Goldsmith clearly has no plan. The Jones bill is clever because my sense of it is there is so much infighting in the north of the country, they will, out of bloody mindedness, never strike a deal. All the logic we heard yesterday about tribes that have cut deals and invested billions and seen the endless benefits will have missed their mark in Northland, given a lot of Ngāpuhi aren't interested in a deal. They thrive on dissent and division and permanent anger and grievance. Jim Bolger, who I note in the past few weeks as he celebrated his 90th is still prone to the odd piece of public commentary, might like to have pondered his own role in this many, many years ago when they started to put up a few road markers around timeframes. The idea was they would set a date to file your claim, remembering even in Bolger's day the Waitangi Tribunal had been going since the 70's, and once you filed, they would impose another deadline to get it all wrapped up. Good idea, but it went nowhere because Bolger and Co. got sucked into the idea that this was unfair, it was rushed, and it was history. What wasn't said out loud was this was a gravy train that could go literally forever, and people were going to make a living off it. As Jones revealed yesterday, we've spent $20 million for Ngāpuhi alone, just for lunch and chats and airfares. You have to remember 1975 was a goodwill gesture. The tribunal and the settlement of grievances was entered into not because anyone had to, but because it was the right thing to do. It was driven by goodwill. I would have thought it was fairly obvious in the vast array of deals to be done and apologies to be made, like life, that some would embrace it and run with it and some would be unable to get out of their own way. What was needed but was missing, and still is (Jones aside), was leadership. We needed boundaries set and an explanation of the rules and expectations. And because that was missing, so is $20 million on lunch, and still no deal. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Episode 545 - Andrew Goldsmith - US Army Ranger School Graduate, The Mediocre Infantryman's Guide to Ranger SchoolAbout the authorAndrew Goldsmith grew up in Los Angeles, California. In 2004, he joined the US Army infantry where he served as a machine gunner, team leader, and squad leader during nearly five years of service. Andrew deployed to Iraq twice, in 2006 and 2008, and graduated US Army Ranger School in 2008.After leaving the Army in 2009, Andrew studied philosophy at the University of Hawaii. In 2011, he self-published his war-time memoirs, Zarqawi's Ice Cream: Tales of Mediocre Infantrymen. Later, he would go onto to earn his law degree from the Pepperdine School of Law and passed the California Bar Exam in 2016.Andrew has studied abroad in Spain and Uganda and adventured in many parts of the world including Iraq, Qatar, China, Mexico, and Western and Central Europe. He has spent time in almost every state in the United States, including touring the country by van, twice, and skateboarding down the entire coast of California in 2013.Presently, Andrew is a practicing attorney, small businessman, and author. He enjoys skateboarding long distances, spending time with his family, and has a black belt in Gracie Jiu Jitsu.Book: The Mediocre Infantryman's Guide to Ranger School (Modern Military Memoirs)What do you do when you show up to Ranger School clueless, alone, and completely unprepared for the pain and suffering ahead? How are you going to survive one of the world's toughest military courses, earn the coveted Ranger Tab, and come home in one piece?Corporal Andrew Goldsmith isn't a super soldier—he's your average infantryman, and by his own admission, a pretty mediocre one at that. Yet through a twist of fate and dumb luck, he finds himself thrown into an ordeal designed to break even the most elite warriors. Severely sleep-deprived, perpetually starving, limping through injuries, and tormented by both the elements and the infamous Ranger Instructors, Goldsmith quickly realizes that surviving Ranger School will be the greatest battle of his life.The journey isn't always glamorous. There are no heroic montages, few dramatic triumphs— just the toilsome life of a ranger, and a lot of questionable decisions made under duress. With his comrades dropping like flies and his mental state teetering on the edge, Goldsmith has to dig deep to find a way through the madness, summoning the strength to endure a course so brutal that many describe it as worse than combat itself.In 'A Mediocre Infantryman's Guide to Ranger School,' Goldsmith shares his brutally honest, darkly funny, and surprisingly relatable account of his journey through one of the most notorious rites of passage in the U.S. Army. Part survival guide, part cautionary tale, this book isn't just for aspiring Rangers—it's for anyone who's ever faced down a seemingly insurmountable challenge and wondered, “Can I really do this?”https://a.co/d/7kVUVHfhttps://www.instagram.com/mediocreinfantryman/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca
