For thousands of years, farmers didn't plant just one crop; they planted many together in the same field.  This practice, known as maslin agriculture, once fed entire populations and offered a built-in defense against famine and failure.  Then, almost everywhere, it vanished.  But today, as modern agriculture faces new challenges, this ancient method is quietly making a comeback.  Learn more about Maslin Agriculture in this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

This episode of Unique Scotland examines the journey of Scottish clans from their origins and rise, through dramatic decline, to their modern revival. The podcast traces the clans' history from ancient times, highlighting their resilience, feuds, and adaptation to changing political landscapes. It explores the Wars of the Three Kingdoms, the Jacobite risings, and the catastrophic Battle of Culloden in 1746, which led to brutal government suppression and dismantling of the clan system. The subsequent Highland Clearances forced many to emigrate, creating a global Scottish diaspora. Despite these hardships, the clan spirit endured, evolving into a cultural rather than political force. The 19th-century romantic revival, driven by figures like Sir Walter Scott, reimagined clan traditions and popularised tartan and Highland dress. Today, clans exist as societies, celebrating heritage through events, tartans, and storytelling. The episode emphasises belonging, identity, and the enduring influence of Scots worldwide. Personal reflections and invitations to engage further round out the narrative, affirming that the clans' legacy lives on through community, memory, and tradition.

This episode is Part Two of The Gangland History Podcast's History of the Pittsburgh Mob, focusing on Gregorio Conti, widely regarded as Pittsburgh's second Mafia boss. Conti matters because he emerges at a turning point, when loose Black Hand extortion and ethnic feuding begin giving way to something more centralized, disciplined, and dangerous. Quiet, calculating, and outwardly respectable, Conti helped shape that transition—and then became one of its earliest casualties.The story opens on September 24, 1919, in Pittsburgh's Strip District. It's a mild fall morning, coal smoke hanging low as streetcars rattle over cobblestones. Somewhere along Smallman Street, Conti sits behind the wheel of his automobile, sweating under pressure. He's in his mid-forties, round-faced, heavyset, horn-rimmed glasses slipping down his nose—the kind of man who could pass for a schoolteacher. But Conti isn't teaching today. He's trying to leave Pittsburgh for good.His wife and children are already packed for the 10:10 p.m. train to New York, with plans to sail for Italy on October 15, 1919. He should already be gone. Instead, he delays for one last, unnecessary errand: selling his automobile. The buyers arrive—men Conti knows. Hands are shaken. Pleasantries exchanged. Then they climb inside. As the car rolls down Smallman Street, the conversation fades. A revolver clicks. Four shots tear through the enclosed space. Conti collapses over the steering wheel and dies minutes later. The coroner records the cause as shock and hemorrhage from gunshot wounds to the heart, with the time of death listed as 11:20 a.m.At first, police default to the familiar explanation: the Black Hand. But the killing feels too precise and controlled. There's no extortion letter, no public threat, no warning meant to terrorize a neighborhood. This looks less like chaotic revenge and more like business.From there, the episode rewinds to trace Conti's rise. Born in Comitini, Sicily, in 1873, he grows up in a world where authority is local and protection comes from men rather than the state. He immigrates to the United States in 1907, becomes a naturalized citizen in 1910, and settles in Pittsburgh with relatives and trusted associates. He builds a wine and liquor operation that appears legitimate but quietly functions as a hub for influence, credit, and enforcement, eventually anchoring at 801 Wylie Avenue as the Pittsburgh Wine and Liquor Company.The episode explores Conti's inner circle, including his nephew Giuseppe “Peppino” Cusumano, a trained chemist and pharmacist, and Nicola “Nick” Gentile, a relative and underworld diplomat physically present in Pittsburgh between 1910 and 1920. Family tension, shifting alliances, and questions of respect begin to fracture Conti's control from within.All of this unfolds under the shadow of Prohibition. The Eighteenth Amendment is ratified in January 1919, Pennsylvania follows weeks later, and the Volstead Act is passed that fall. For a man positioned at the center of alcohol distribution, it should have been an opportunity. Instead, Conti liquidates assets, winds down his business, and prepares to leave the country.After the murder, detectives pursue competing theories, including an alleged $5,500 whiskey swindle and a feud rooted in a clerical error on a $4,000 federal bond involving produce merchants J.C. and Philip Catalano. Arrests come quickly, explanations pile up, but certainty never does.On November 12, 1919, a coroner's jury exonerates the men held in connection with the killing. No shooter is officially identified. Gregorio Conti's murder remains unsolved. His funeral is quiet, with burial believed to have taken place at Cavalry Cemetery.Conti's death doesn't slow Pittsburgh's underworld—it clears the way. Into that vacuum steps Stefano “Big Steve” Monastero, ushering in the city's most violent and profitable Mafia era.But that… is a story for another day.

Fintech went from a full-blown surge to a near standstill in just two years. At its peak, about 25 percent of all venture dollars were pouring into the category. By late 2022, that number had collapsed to almost zero. In this conversation, a16z General Partner David Haber and Plaid cofounder and CEO Zach Perret unpack what actually happened during that cycle and why the market is heating up again.We explore how the industry moved from the explosive growth of 2020 and 2021 into a deep freeze, and why we are now seeing real momentum return. We also dig into the forces reshaping fintech today: AI's outsized impact on fraud and underwriting, incumbents finally embracing external software, the renewed importance of deposits, and the rise of embedded finance across entirely new categories.Zach shares how Plaid has navigated these shifts, what the company is building now, and how he sees the next phase of fintech taking shape. Resources:Find Zach on X: https://x.com/zachperretFind David on X: https://x.com/dhaber Stay Updated:If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to like, subscribe, and share with your friends!Find a16z on X: https://twitter.com/a16zFind a16z on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16zListen to the a16z Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5bC65RDvs3oxnLyqqvkUYXListen to the a16z Podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a16z-podcast/id842818711Please note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

They were can't-miss kids. South Carolina standouts. PGA Tour hopefuls. Pioneers of golf's YouTube era. But success is rarely a straight line. Alongside their feature in The Golfer's Journal No. 34, George and Wesley Bryan sit down with TGJ managing editor Travis Hill to finally tell their whole story from the patio at Solina Golf Club, where it all began. They talk about the early days at Solina under their dad's watch, the mini-tour failures, the trick-shot breakout that kept the lights on, and Wesley's rapid climb to the PGA Tour. They also open up about their financial rock bottoms, the creative bets that paid off, and the growing tension with the PGA Tour as they carve their own path on YouTube. It's the full arc of the Bryan Bros rise, fall, and rise again, told in their own words.Editor's Note: This podcast was recorded in May 2025.The Golfer's Journal and this podcast are made possible by reader support.

Matt Trump takes listeners on a deeply personal and historical journey through Portland, once a vibrant hub of music, creativity, and culture, now a city overrun by chaos and ideological decay. Drawing on his own experiences from the 80s, 90s, and 2000s, he reflects on how Portland's charm and high-functioning community slowly gave way to decadence, slacker culture, and ultimately a city haunted by dark energy. From the glory days of jazz clubs and Restaurant Week to the haunting spectacle of homelessness and lawlessness, Matt examines how Portland became a symbol of the left's unchecked insanity. Along the way, he dives into history, art, and even his own complicity in the city's trajectory, weaving a narrative equal parts memoir, cultural critique, and elegy.

Today on The Real Wealth Show, we're joined by Jamil Damji—real estate wholesaler, co-founder of KeyGlee, and star of A&E's Triple Digit Flip. Jamil opens up about his incredible journey: how he got started in real estate, lost everything chasing the wrong opportunities, and came back stronger to build a multimillion dollar wholesaling business. We dive into the early wins, the painful mistakes, and the mindset shifts that helped Jamil not only recover—but thrive. He also shares why he believes now is the time to organize the industry through a National Wholesalers Association, and how that could shape the future of real estate investing.

In 711 an Arab and Berber army crossed the Strait of Gibraltar and invaded the Iberian Peninsula. Seven years later, their conquests had birthed the Muslim kingdom of al-Andalus. This marked the beginning of roughly 8 centuries of Moorish rule, during which al-Andalus became a conduit for the transmission of knowledge between the Islamic world and Europe.Joining us today is Brian Catlos, a Professor of Religious Studies at the University of Colorado, Boulder and the author of 'Kingdoms of Faith: A New History of Islamic Spain'. He takes us through the history of al-Andalus, from its inception and expansion through to its dramatic downfall.Produced by James Hickmann and edited by Max Carrey.Sign up to History Hit for hundreds of hours of original documentaries, with a new release every week and ad-free podcasts.
