If I can ask you sweet people for 3 minutes of your time, please listen to this insanely beautiful version of the classic WWII partisan song 'Bella Ciao' arranged by the great @ulisesbella and sung by my daughter. Please 'like' and 'subscribe.'

This is my spirit animal. According to Japanese legends, the Tanuki has giant balls and his main pastimes are drinking sake and having sex.
As an Italian, and a history nerd who is into jiujitsu, I laughed at this way too hard: instagram.com/p/DeUBQf7sGnC/
Mike Duncan is one of the godfathers of historical podcasting. Episode 89 of History on Fire is a conversation I had with him about the life of Gilbert du Motier, better known as Marquis de Lafayette.
Check out episode 89 of History on Fire wherever you listen to podcasts.
My novel was published in Italy. Soon to be published in U.S.

@HardcoreHistory I gave you a shoutout in the latest History on Fire episode (about the 1891 New Orleans lynching, Italian immigration, and Columbus Day). I mentioned the Sacco and Vanzetti trial and the Red Scare, so I gave a shoutout to your Radical Thoughts episode (HH 40)
New History on Fire episode wherever you listen to podcasts: it involves an 1891 lynching of Italians in New Orleans, immigration, Columbus Day, a Sopranos' episode, and Italians 'becoming white'.
If you want a book written by a serious intellectual who doesn’t indulge in frivolity and doesn't spend his time flexing his biceps in the mirror... I'm afraid this is the wrong book. My novel is out in Italian, but will be out in English some time before Christmas.
Excited to see it
The reviews are in: “C.E. Massari is an incredible writer. In THE MAFIA VS THE KLAN, imagination and family history come together to deliver a hard-hitting, intense story. Massari never disappoints. Check him out!” - @DBolelli kickstarter.com/projects/cem…
Today is a special day for me. My first historical fiction novel was released by one of the best publishers in Italy. The English version is due soon (hopefully by Nov). I truly put blood and soul in this work.

Today, it's the anniversary of the day when Crazy Horse was murdered at Fort Robinson. His epic life and tragic death are the subject of a four part series I did for History on Fire. Check out episodes 7, 8, 9, and 10 wherever you listen to podcasts.

The one quality I value most in any human being is not intellectual brilliance, or toughness, or the ability to accomplish great things. It's kindness. Not only is kindness beautiful in a way that requires no explanation, but it also tells me something about a person's strength.
