Born in Harlem in 1934 to a family of Caribbean immigrants, Audre Lorde grew up to become a Black feminist icon and celebrated American poet, writer, and activist. Best known for her works exploring her own multifaceted identity, Lorde both struggled with and embraced the differences that made her unique—and the ones that drew her to others. A poet and self-described “warrior,” Lorde created a space for herself in America by writing about her personal experiences and advocating for freedom for people of color, the LGBTQ community, women, and oppressed communities around the globe.

This episode is the last of a three-part update on Appalachian Mysteria Season 1 — Mared & Karen: The WVU Coed Murders.  Without a doubt, these three episodes will be the most important updates since the season finished airing in 2018. In this episode, Devona Coffey — formerly Devona Daft — finds out about the existence of Geoff and Sarah's book, and one paragraph in particular makes her blood boil.  The passage leads to an emotional confrontation in the holler, and eventually to Devona contacting the Mysteria crew to share a long-buried family secret. The terminally ill aunt who took care of Devona after her father's death confides in her about the night Mared & Karen went missing, and a growing chorus of voices in the family echo the story.  But is it all true, or a story contrived to create a dangerous mystique around career criminals? The WVU Coed Murders: Who Killed Mared & Karen? — Geoff & Sarah's book, now available at Amazon.  The book goes into much greater detail about the entire case than the podcast could allow for, and is the first mention of the Dafts.  (Chapter 15) Thank you to our sponsor Ritual!

This episode is the second of a three-part update on Appalachian Mysteria Season 1 — Mared & Karen: The WVU Coed Murders.  Without a doubt, these three episodes will be the most important updates since the season finished airing in 2018. In this episode, we're reintroduced to Danny Strakal, host of the YouTube series Spirit Walk Paranormal.  Danny's history with the spirit realm began in his childhood, but his full-scale investigations began after the release of our first podcast season. A viewer of Danny's channel connects him with Dave Campbell, another man who was there at the moment Mared and Karen's bodies were discovered.  After spending time together on several investigations, Dave claims to have received a vision of two men that he believes are the murderers.  When Sarah shows him a lineup of our best suspects, he tells us that two of the men — members of the same family that lived in the hollow where the girls were killed — were known to pick up and rape hitchhikers. This leads to the first of two damning testimonies from members of their family.  Their niece struggles with the dark history of her childhood, and their sister finally reveals a story that had been sworn to secrecy. The WVU Coed Murders: Who Killed Mared & Karen? — Geoff & Sarah's book, now available at Amazon.  Coming in at 400 pages, the book goes into much greater detail than the podcast could allow for, and is the first mention of the new suspects we talk about in this episode and the next.

This episode is the first of a two part update on Appalachian Mysteria Season 1 — Mared & Karen: The WVU Coed Murders.  Without a doubt, these two episodes will be the most important updates since the season finished airing in 2018. In this episode, we're reintroduced to Albert “Rod” Everly, a National Guardsman who was one of the first people on the scene when the bodies of Mared & Karen were found.  As it turns out, Rod has been nursing a theory about the murders for more than 50 years.  After acquiring the “Triangle” letters from Geoff and Sarah, he fleshes the theory out further, leading the podcast crew to unexpectedly exhume a body. A few weeks later, the Dominion Post begins a series of articles about new excavations by State Police.  The photos accompanying the articles clearly depict Rod Everly, and we set out to explain to the general public exactly what has been happening with the case. “Renewed investigation begins on murdered coeds case” — The first Dominion Post article in a series about the new search for girls' heads based on Rod Everly's theory Richard Warren Hoover — A lecture given by Richard Warren Hoover (aka “Triangle”) on Halloween of 2010 at the Cassadaga Spiritualist Camp.  He was 71 years old at the time. The WVU Coed Murders: Who Killed Mared & Karen? — Geoff & Sarah's book, now available at Amazon.  Coming in at 400 pages, the book goes into much greater detail than the podcast could allow for, and is the first mention of the new suspects we'll be talking about in our next update episode.

In this episode, you will hear the real life conversation between Lefty and Joe as Donnie faced a life-and-death situation as he dealt with accusations of theft from fellow mobster Tony Mirra.  Join co-hosts Leo Rossi and Joe Pistone as they dive into the first tape from Joe's collection of undercover conversations. Hear from Lefty Ruggiero's wife, as she urgently tries to contact Joe for Lefty, and then from Lefty himself as he questions Joe to find out the truth behind the accusations.  It's high drama on this episode of Deep Cover: The Real Donnie Brasco!

Bruce Smith is known and respected as the NFL's all-time career leader in quarterback sacks, with 11 Pro-Bowl appearances and 4 consecutive Super Bowls with the Buffalo Bills under his belt. In this episode, Marcellus Wiley dives deep into who Bruce Smith, the man, is. As a son, brother, father, husband, friend, and mentor, there's more to him than just a football player.  They talk about his parents' sacrifices, the very moment in college that changed his entire football career and romantic trajectory. Bruce Smith has always stood up for what he believes, from his fight against targeted hate during his first year in the NFL to now standing as an activist and a voice for the people of that same community of Buffalo, New York. There's also lots of fun had in this episode as Marcellus, who was tagged “The New Bruce Smith” asks Bruce how he felt about that, and we play a round of “Finish The Sentence” with the NFL legend.  Connect with Bruce Smith on Instagram.

Join us to learn all about Matty's journey that lead him to being the true Trailblazer that he is today.

Hosted and Produced by Bryan Barletta and Evo TerraAudio Engineering by Ian PowellThis is The Download, the most important business news from the world of podcasting, I'm Bryan Barletta.And I'm Evo Terra. Today we're covering the entirety of the podcast acquisition and funding that happened in 2021. Let's get started.Libsyn, the public podcast hosting platform founded in 2004 had an incredibly active year. They started by raising 25 million dollars and they definitely put it to work, buying podcast creation platform Auxbus, subscription and membership platform Glow for 1.2 million dollars, host and announcer read self-serve advertising marketplace Advertisecast for 30 million dollars, and longtail podcast advertising marketplace PODGO. With the leadership team from Advertisecast taking a more active role, and former board chairman and investor Brad Tirpak coming on as CEO, Libsyn has a chance to really upgrade their image if they can match the momentum of their competitors and integrate a non-trivial amount of companies into one of the oldest podcast platforms still active.Audacy, started the year as Entercom, and after 53 years, rebranded. Kicking it of by acquiring longtail self-serve ad marketplace Podcorn for $22.5m. Podcorn gives Audacy micro-influencer reach contrasting with their higher-profile owned and repped shows. For $40m, they also bought “an exclusive, perpetual license of WideOrbit's digital audio streaming and podcasting technology and related assets and operations. Audacy will continue to operate WO Streaming under the name AmperWave.” Today, Audacy builds and hosts their radio broadcast to podcasts solution with Triton Digital's Omny Studio, owned by close competitor iHeartMedia, while hosting their Cadence13 and Pineapple Street Media shows on Spotify's Megaphone. For a company reporting around $16m in revenue per quarter from podcasting alone, expect to see them fully migrate to AmperWave and bulk up the public offering for the platform.While Global, the UK-based media & entertainment group and parent company of DAX Digital Ad Exchange does offer podcast hosting capabilities, their main appeal for publishers has been monetization opportunities. So acquiring podcast hosting, analytics, and monetization platform Captivate, which is IAB certified and has strong brand appeal for indie podcasts, shows Global's drive to be more accessible. Ad exchanges thrive on inventory, so the purchase of Remixd, which “automatically converts text articles into audio files” provides Global a quick path to more ad supply. With Captivate off the table, hosting platform Buzzsprout, that serves over 100k podcasts, becomes even more appealing for a longtail inventory play.Earlier in the year, iHeartMedia acquired audio ad technology company Triton Digital for 230 million dollars from E.W. Scripps, which purchased Triton Digital for 150 million dollars in 2018 and Omny Studio, part of Triton Digital, in 2019. Like Audacy, iHeart currently uses Spotify's Megaphone to host their podcasts. Getting all their assets to their own platform is clearly on the horizon for iHeart, especially with Triton Digital offering radio broadcast-to-podcast capabilities. Coupled with iHeart's acquisition of Voxnest/Spreaker in 2020 and the announcement of their ad marketplace in both 2020 and 2021, the only offering iHeart currently lacks to compete with their direct competitors, is an attribution product. Will they build it internally like Adswizz or will they acquire a solution?With over 70% of podcasts on Spotify serving from their hosting platform Anchor, Spotify continues their plans of going wide on audio by buying audiobook distributor Findaway and podcast hosting platform Whooshkaa, which specializes in creating podcasts from radio broadcasts. Whooshkaa will be integrated into hosting platform Megaphone, which Spotify purchased last November for 235 million dollars. While Spotify is unlikely to retain Audacy and iHeartMedia as clients, as both purchased their own radio broadcast-to-podcast technology this year, Spotify will continue to attract publishers looking for those features as part of a complete offering. With Whooshkaa acquired, RedCircle is the last independent hosting platform with dynamic ad insertion and programmatic offerings. And SGRecast from StreamGuys is the only independent company offering a broadcast-to-podcast technology. How long either will remain independent is a very good question.Acast started the year by acquiring US podcast technology startup RadioPublic. Keeping inline with their creator-focused image, the main appeal was “RadioPublic's Listener Relationship Management platform, which allows podcasters to foster even deeper relationships with fans”, which played nice with the beta launch of Acast+, their subscription offering. Over the summer, Acast went public, which is it's own kind of acquisition.And though it falls slightly outside of 2021, when Podnews editor James Cridland announced Amazon's late December 2020 acquisition of Wondery for around 300 million dollars, he made the prediction that ART19 would be the logical next acquisition. After all, former CEO of Wondery, Hernan Lopez was an investor in the platform and all Wondery shows were hosted on ART19. In June of this year, the deal for Amazon to acquire ART19 was officially announced. Nice crystal ball, James.And if that wasn't enough, here's a quick rundown of some of the other deals from 2021: In the podcast player space, the Breaker podcast app team joined Twitter while Maple Media acquired the app itself, Daily Mail and General Trust or DMGT acquired discovery focused podcast app Entale, and Automattic, owner of Tumblr and WordPress.com acquired the podcast app Pocket Casts. In the hosting platform space Castos acquires another hosting platform, Podiant and Sounder acquired audio discovery and analytics company Podnods. In the technology space attribution company Podsights acquired linksharing company pod.link and podcast database Podchaser acquired chart and ranking tool Podcharts and listener review tool Podrover. And in the content production space Amaze Media Labs acquired podcast production company Jam Street Media.Finally, a lighting round of the funding deals that happened, to give you some insight into the money moving into the podcasting space.ProductionCopenhagen-based Podimo raised $15.3m in February and $78m in November.Audio Up Media raised $12m.WaitWhat raised $12m.Sounder raised $2.15m in March and $9.5m in December.Casted raised $7m.French-based Paradiso Media raised $5.9m.Quake Media raised $3.5m.Equity Mates Media raised $900k.UK-based Auddy raised $610k.Creator ToolsVerbit raised $157m.Descript raised $30m.Podcastle raised $7m.Zencastr raised $4.6m.Podchaser raised $4m.Riverside raised $2.5m.Hosting & MonetizationInstreamatic raised $6.1m.RedCircle raised $6m.Podsights raised $4m.Backtracks raised $1.6m.Castos raised $756k.Podmetrics and Podcast Network Asia raised $750k.You'll find links to everything we just covered in the episode details, and subscribe to The Download in your inbox so you never miss an episode.I'm Bryan BarlettaAnd I'm Evo TerraSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Audacy, started the year as Entercom, and after 53 years, rebranded. Kicking it of by acquiring longtail self-serve ad marketplace Podcorn for $22.5m. Podcorn gives Audacy micro-influencer reach contrasting with their higher-profile owned and repped shows. For $40m, they also bought “an exclusive, perpetual license of WideOrbit's digital audio streaming and podcasting technology and related assets and operations. Audacy will continue to operate WO Streaming under the name AmperWave.” Today, Audacy builds and hosts their radio broadcast to podcasts solution with Triton Digital's Omny Studio, owned by close competitor iHeartMedia, while hosting their Cadence13 and Pineapple Street Media shows on Spotify's Megaphone. For a company reporting around $16m in revenue per quarter from podcasting alone, expect to see them fully migrate to AmperWave and bulk up the public offering for the platform. While Global, the UK-based media & entertainment group and parent company of DAX Digital Ad Exchange does offer podcast hosting capabilities, their main appeal for publishers has been monetization opportunities. So acquiring podcast hosting, analytics, and monetization platform Captivate, which is IAB certified and has strong brand appeal for indie podcasts, shows Global's drive to be more accessible. Ad exchanges thrive on inventory, so the purchase of Remixd, which “automatically converts text articles into audio files” provides Global a quick path to more ad supply. With Captivate off the table, hosting platform Buzzsprout, that serves over 100k podcasts, becomes even more appealing for a longtail inventory play. Earlier in the year, iHeartMedia acquired audio ad technology company Triton Digital for 230 million dollars from E.W. Scripps, which purchased Triton Digital for 150 million dollars in 2018 and Omny Studio, part of Triton Digital, in 2019. Like Audacy, iHeart currently uses Spotify's Megaphone to host their podcasts. Getting all their assets to their own platform is clearly on the horizon for iHeart, especially with Triton Digital offering radio broadcast-to-podcast capabilities. Coupled with iHeart's acquisition of Voxnest/Spreaker in 2020 and the announcement of their ad marketplace in both 2020 and 2021, the only offering iHeart currently lacks to compete with their direct competitors, is an attribution product. Will they build it internally like Adswizz or will they acquire a solution? With over 70% of podcasts on Spotify serving from their hosting platform Anchor, Spotify continues their plans of going wide on audio by buying audiobook distributor Findaway and podcast hosting platform Whooshkaa, which specializes in creating podcasts from radio broadcasts. Whooshkaa will be integrated into hosting platform Megaphone, which Spotify purchased last November for 235 million dollars. While Spotify is unlikely to retain Audacy and iHeartMedia as clients, as both purchased their own radio broadcast-to-podcast technology this year, Spotify will continue to attract publishers looking for those features as part of a complete offering. With Whooshkaa acquired, RedCircle is the last independent hosting platform with dynamic ad insertion and programmatic offerings. And SGRecast from StreamGuys is the only independent company offering a broadcast-to-podcast technology. How long either will remain independent is a very good question. Acast started the year by acquiring US podcast technology startup RadioPublic. Keeping inline with their creator-focused image, the main appeal was “RadioPublic's Listener Relationship Management platform, which allows podcasters to foster even deeper relationships with fans”, which played nice with the beta launch of Acast+, their subscription offering. Over the summer, Acast went public, which is it's own kind of acquisition. And though it falls slightly outside of 2021, when Podnews editor James Cridland announced Amazon's late December 2020 acquisition of Wondery for around 300 million dollars, he made the prediction that ART19 would be the logical next acquisition. After all, former CEO of Wondery, Hernan Lopez was an investor in the platform and all Wondery shows were hosted on ART19. In June of this year, the deal for Amazon to acquire ART19 was officially announced. Nice crystal ball, James. And if that wasn't enough, here's a quick rundown of some of the other deals from 2021: In the podcast player space, the Breaker podcast app team joined Twitter while Maple Media acquired the app itself, Daily Mail and General Trust or DMGT acquired discovery focused podcast app Entale, and Automattic, owner of Tumblr and WordPress.com acquired the podcast app Pocket Casts. In the hosting platform space Castos acquires another hosting platform, Podiant and Sounder acquired audio discovery and analytics company Podnods. In the technology space attribution company Podsights acquired linksharing company pod.link and podcast database Podchaser acquired chart and ranking tool Podcharts and listener review tool Podrover. And in the content production space Amaze Media Labs acquired podcast production company Jam Street Media. Finally, a lighting round of the funding deals that happened, to give you some insight into the money moving into the podcasting space. Production Copenhagen-based Podimo raised $15.3m in February and $78m in November. Audio Up Media raised $12m. WaitWhat raised $12m. Sounder raised $2.15m in March and $9.5m in December. Casted raised $7m. French-based Paradiso Media raised $5.9m. Quake Media raised $3.5m. Equity Mates Media raised $900k. UK-based Auddy raised $610k.Creator Tools Verbit raised $157m. Descript raised $30m. Podcastle raised $7m. Zencastr raised $4.6m. Podchaser raised $4m. Riverside raised $2.5m.Hosting & Monetization Instreamatic raised $6.1m. RedCircle raised $6m.

Lies, fraud and just plain ripped off. This week on the first episode of the two-part season finale of A Life's Story, our host Leslie Gold sits down with Beverley Schottenstein, a 94 year old woman who was defrauded by her two grandsons. From stealing property, to using her wealth to establish careers, they eventually began siphoning off large amounts of cash to increase their own wealth, unknown to Beverly at the time. When they were finally confronted, they accused their grandmother of having dementia, telling her that she was mistaken and essentially didn't know what she was talking about. Even her son, the boy's father, piled on and was critical of Beverly. But that didn't dissuade her from putting up a fight and standing up for herself. Hear the remarkable story of resilience, wealth, family dysfunction and doing what you believe is right versus what you believe is wrong. With the help of her caregiver and granddaughters, Beverly is able to make a stand and fight back against her grandson's blatant theft and put a stop to the betrayal. Leslie leaves no stone unturned as we also get to hear about Beverly's childhood, what it was like growing up and how she came to meet her husband, Alvin. From being a teenager to becoming an adult, get a first hand look of how she was able to become successful and when she first started to notice red flags with her finances. We get to listen to the story of a kind old lady pushed to her limit, and despite not always understanding all of the legal technicalities of her grandson's fraud, she knew it was wrong, and that didn't sit well. Find out how she was able to put an end to the dishonesty and uncover familial betrayal of the highest order.  00:00 - Intro  02:51 - Interview with Beverly Schottenstein Follow Us on Social Media: Leslie Gold (@twitter)  A Life's Story (@twitter) (@instagram) (@facebook) Jam Street Media (@twitter) (@instagram) (@facebook)  Learn more about your ad choices.

Chris Williamson, do popular canal do YouTube, CreativeHackers quantificou os desafios que um aspirante a novo podcaster enfrenta. Entre os números que ele citou, ele disse que há cerca de 2 milhões de podcasts e, desses, 90% não sobrevivem além de seu 3º episódio. Isso significa que há 1,8 milhões de podcasters que desistem pouco depois de começar. Assim, 1/10 dos mais bem-sucedido entre os podcasts do mundo é composto de 200.000 deles... e ainda assim 90% desses também estarão mortos quando chegarem ao 20º episódio. E assim, chegamos à elite: os 1% de 20.000 podcasts que chegam ao episódio 21. Portanto, os CreativeHackers enviam uma mensagem de incentivo aos podcasters que estão tentando se destacar em sua indústria: "Sua concorrência não são os 2 milhões de podcasters. São os 20.000 podcasters que não desistiram".   O Squadcast lançou a sua versão 4 na sexta-feira. O serviço de gravação remota acrescenta integração com Dolby․io, áudio espacial, masterização de áudio com 1 clique, até 10 pessoas em uma sessão, compartilhamento de tela, uma sala verde atualizada e muito mais.   Conheça o - Hello Audio - um novo host de podcast focado em feeds privados (mas que também oferece feeds públicos). A 0 acaba de ser lançado publicamente.   O Facebook lançou a sua experiência de podcast in-app no aplicativo. Para participar, você precisa de um convite diretamente do Facebook e eles apenas funcionarão nos EUA. O The Joe Budden Podcast e Jam Street Media foram alguns dos escolhidos para receber os podcasts configurados em suas páginas. Já o clone do Clubhouse do Facebook, Live Audio Rooms também foi lançado: isso, novamente, é apenas para os EUA, e as salas ao vivo estão disponíveis apenas no iOS. Ainda esse ano eles prometem o lançamento de recursos adicionais, como legendas e a capacidade de criar e compartilhar pequenos clipes de um podcast", diz Fidji Simo, Chefe do aplicativo do Facebook.   A ferramenta de áudio remoto Cleanfeed lançou um Player em beta, para permitir a reprodução de clipes completos na interface durante a gravação para que todos possam ouvir. O que permite a exibição do tempo de reprodução, contagem regressiva, a opção de rebobinar, controle por toque de tela ou teclado, controle de volume, além de espaço para exibir o nome do áudio - Mono ou estéreo.   A Amazon comprou a empresa de hospedagem e venda de podcasts ART19. Nenhum detalhe do negócio foi dado. A ART19 já hospeda os podcasts da Wondery e isso dá à Amazon acesso à tecnologia de hospedagem de podcasts e uma plataforma de monetização para publicidade inserida dinamicamente em todos os aplicativos.   Conheça a - Moonbeam - um novo aplicativo destinado a "resolver o maior problema que a indústria de podcast enfrenta: encontrar novos podcasts". Construído com uma combinação de aprendizado de máquina e criadores humanos, inclui a capacidade dos podcasters de criar clips compartilháveis, e foi fundado por Paul English, que construiu o Kayak e a Lola.   A SXM Media agora combina publicidade com conteúdo de áudio por oferecer transcrições de podcasts para ajudar aos anunciantes. Eles estão usando o “PodScribe Contextual Targeting”, um serviço que recentemente entrou em fase beta e funciona com o Adswizz. Isso permitirá aos anunciantes identificar programas individuais para a colocação inteligente de anúncios.   O Spotify adquire a Podz, uma startup que facilita a descoberta de podcasts. Eles acreditam que esta tecnologia complementará e acelerará seus esforços para impulsionar a descoberta, fornecer o conteúdo certo para os ouvintes no momento certo e acelerar o crescimento.   Joe Rogan revela seus segredos para manter o engajamento nas entrevistas. Independentemente se você o ama ou o odeia, uma coisa é clara, o Joe Rogan sabe como manter um público engajado. Ele também consegue engajar seu público com convidados que estão longe da multidão típica das celebridades. No portal TheThings ele explica os seus truques para garantir uma boa entrevista.   O Zencastr segue melhorando. Esse serviço de gravação remota de entrevistas acaba de acrescentar um novo recurso para edição e apresentação dos participantes em um podcast. Graças à sua tecnologia de reconhecimento facial, o serviço agora será capaz de identificar os rostos dos participantes nos vídeos originais.   Diferenças entre Clubhouse e Spotify Greenroom. O projeto do Spotify Greenroom não é muito diferente do Clubhouse, mas uma diferença interessante é que você pode habilitar um bate-papo que o criador da sala pode habilitar ou desabilitar à vontade. Você também pode solicitar que o áudio seja transformado em um podcast no final. O serviço Spotify também permite a moderação, ao contrário do Clubhouse.   O Twitter Spaces começou a permitir que alguns hosts cobrem para entrar em seus quartos ou rooms. Com este novo recurso de bilhetagem, os hosts aprovados do serviço podem definir preços e tamanhos de salas, controles que provavelmente serão imitados pelas muitas plataformas de áudio social que estão proliferando este ano.   O FBI produz um podcast para encontrar pistas sobre o desaparecimento de uma garotinha. Trata-se do caso de Arianna Fitts, uma menina de 2 anos de idade que foi vista pela última vez em fevereiro de 2016. O corpo de sua mãe foi encontrado enterrado em um parque da cidade em abril do mesmo ano.   A Apple quer criar um marketplace de podcasts no Brasil para empreendedores - O modelo vai permitir que pequenas e médias empresas dos mais variados segmentos vendam pacotes de assinaturas aos ouvintes, com possibilidade de pagamento diário, semanal, mensal e anual.

The Sicilians had their own murderous ways of doing things, and unlike their American counterparts, nobody’s life was off-limits.

Joe talks to us about what happened to the acting boss of the Bonanno Crime Family, Carmine Galante, when he decided to defy The Commission. Leo learns a lesson of his own when Joe let’s him in on what makes a good deep cover agent, and why he probably wouldn't make the cut. What happens when two FBI agents walk into a Russian dacha?

June Aochi Berk, a Japanese-American historian, sits down with Leslie Gold to share her story of resilience and optimism after experiencing one of the most atrocious acts of civil rights violations in U.S. history. As a young girl, June and her family were forced from their home and taken to an internment camp leaving behind everything she ever knew.

The case is finally closed and it’s time for Joe Pistone, a.k.a the real Donnie Brasco to face The Mafia in court. For six years, he rubbed elbows with some of the scariest gangsters alive and now he’s working with the then U.S. Attorney Rudy Giuliani to bring them to justice. Joe’s testimony was crucial in The Pizza Connection Trial and The Commission Trial, which was the most expensive trial in New York City history. Usually, the mafia doesn’t deal in the business of drugs. But at the end of the day when the money’s rolling in, it’s easy to turn and look the other way.  00:00:00 -  Intro 00:01:54 - The RICO Act 00:07:03 - The Lawyers00:09:37 - The Pizza Connection Trial  Follow us on social media:Deep Cover  (@twitter)   (@instagram) (@facebook)Jam Street Media (@twitter) (@instagram) (@facebook)

Leo Rossi and Joe Pistone are back and diving even further into the Donnie Brasco story. This week is all about mafia business and the cash-raking hustle of hijacking. From Sonny Black to John Gotti, these wise guys worked some of the most successful (and dangerous) car-jacking rings in the country. So much so it worked them up the family hierarchy. But what happens when the mighty inevitably fall? Do they fall back into a life of crime or try and go straight? Thank you to our sponsor Manscaped!

We are going to switch things up a bit for this week's episode with ESPN Writer and Author, Jeff Passan joining Ross to share with us his wealth of baseball knowledge. The two travel back to the 1930s to discuss the astonishing career of former Cleveland Indians Pitcher, Bob Feller. At the ripe age of 17 Feller was considered a phenom for his time, from striking out 17 in a September game to his time overseas to throwing a complete game three days after his discharge, we hear all about the unique legacy of the “Heater from Van Meter.” 00:00:00 -  Intro 00:05:31 -  Interview Jeff Passan Follow us on social media: GOATS: On The Bump (@twitter) Jam Street Media (@twitter) (@instagram) (@facebook) Follow Ross on (@twitter) &  (@instagram) Follow Jeff Passan (@twitter) & (@instagram) Learn more about your ad choices.

From one leftie to the next, Los Angeles Dodgers' Pitcher Clayton Kershaw joins Ross in breaking down the career of one of the greatest pitchers to ever step foot on the mound, Sandy Koufax. Though the first 12 years of Kershaw and Koufax's careers are nearly identical, the differences between the two are also substantial. Ross and Kershaw grind into the numbers, and break down what uniquely makes these two pitchers legendary.    00:00:00 - Intro 00:00:30 - Sandy Koufax and his first 12 years  00:04:04 - Clayton Kershaw Interview  Follow us on social media GOATS: On The Bump (@twitter) Jam Street Media (@twitter) (@instagram) (@facebook) Follow Ross  on  (@twitter) &  (@instagram) Follow Clayton Kershaw (@twitter) & (@instagram) Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, Dario talks to a producer and host with his finger on the pulse of the American podcasting landscape, Matty Staudt. Matty has been obsessed with audio broadcasting since childhood, listening to seminal shows such as Bob and Ray's morning show and Dr Demento. Moving into radio at the first opportunity Matty quickly became an an on-air host, morning show lead and executive producer at stations as WJFK in Washington DC, WNEW in New York City, Alice Radio (KLLC) and Live 105 (KITS) in San Francisco.

In this episode: Aristotle's Rhetorical Triangle, how I escaped a cult, why we must care about others, and how it can all be applied to persuasion, art creation, ideology, and modern life. We delve into some of the philosophical reasons behind what makes one “good” at rhetoric. I talk about how some of Lacan's, Freud's, and Jung's psychological writings can be used to cultivate authority, humanity, and logic. As I explain each pillar of the triangle, I'll then use that same method to analyze my own life to give a better idea of who I am: my ethos of what led me to co-found Jam Street Media, the pathos of my grandmother's imperative to me, and the logos of the book that caused my exodus from religion. My Photography - www.instagram.com/faseycrancoMy Twitter - www.Twitter.com/faseycrancoMy Website - CaseyFranco.comJam Street Media - JamStreetMedia.comSuggest a topic: godsmastersandclout@gmail.comChapters -00:56 - Episode Introduction4:20 - The Rhetorical Triangle14:40 - Ethos (The Concept)30:55 - My Ethos (What I'm Credible to Speak On)39:24 - Pathos (The Concept)55:16 - My Pathos (How My Grandmother Sees Me)1:00:10 - Logos (The Concept)1:12:45 - My Logos (Using Logic to Escape a Cult)1:29:53 - The Wrap-upLinks and Citations -School of Liberal Arts Rhetorical Triangle Analysis - https://www.lsu.edu/hss/english/files/university_writing_files/item35402.pdfSalvoj Zizek on Gratification of Capitalist Consumption - https://youtu.be/P18UK5IMRDIManipulation vs Persuasion by Michael Roberts - https://medium.com/@michaelwroberts/the-difference-between-persuasion-and-manipulation-27eb4c02fd2dMeerkat Facts - https://www.natgeokids.com/au/discover/animals/general-animals/meerkat-facts/Social Contract Theory - https://iep.utm.edu/soc-cont/Michael Heumer, The Problem of Political Authority: An Examination of the Right to Coerce and the Duty to ObeyLiberalism - https://openscholarship.wustl.edu/art_sci_etds/244/Stanley Milgram's Experiment on Obedience and Authority - https://www.sparknotes.com/psychology/psych101/socialpsychology/section7/How to understand power - Eric Liu - https://youtu.be/c_Eutci7ackLacan's “Big Other” - http://www.english.hawaii.edu/criticalink/lacan/terms/other.htmlFreud's “Superego” - https://www.simplypsychology.org/psyche.htmlSam Harris on Freewill and Genetic determinism - https://samharris.org/the-illusion-of-free-will/Lacan on Desire - https://www.lacanonline.com/2010/05/what-does-lacan-say-about-desire/Zizek on the lack of a “Big Other” - "What is the big other?" - The Pervert's Guide To Ideology 2012 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwIDNW89AqQTurlock's churches - https://townsquarepublications.com/turlock-worship/Videos I made for iHeart -Lacan on “The Subject” - http://www.english.hawaii.edu/criticalink/lacan/terms/subject.htmlEmpathy - https://lesley.edu/article/the-psychology-of-emotional-and-cognitive-empathy#:~:text=According%20to%20Hodges%20and%20Myers,but%20without%20the%20self%20actuallyEffects of the Agricultural Revolution - https://courses.lumenlearning.com/suny-hccc-worldhistory2/chapter/effects-of-the-agricultural-revolution/#:~:text=The%20increase%20in%20agricultural%20production,loosely%20regulated%20agricultural%20market%2C%20andYuval Noah Harari on Human Superiority - https://ideas.ted.com/why-humans-run-the-world/Lacan's “Signifiers” - https://nosubject.com/SignifierReptile Brain vs Mammalian Brain - https://thebrain.mcgill.ca/flash/d/d_05/d_05_cr/d_05_cr_her/d_05_cr_her.htmlGenetic predisposition vs Experience - https://www.verywellmind.com/what-is-nature-versus-nurture-2795392Structuralism - Calhoun, Craig, ed. 2002.

Matty Staudt is someone I have been trying to get on the podcast for about a year. His busy work schedule at iHeart made scheduling difficult. However, a change in direction for Matty created the necessary time to have him on. Matty is starting a new venture called Jam Street Media. He had straddled both podcast and broadcast successfully for over a decade. From working as a producer for G. Gordon Liddy, to working at Stitcher, Matty has a good sense where the intersection of podcast and broadcast is located.
