PLUS | Data Integrity at Scale
Traceability is quickly becoming one of the defining challenges in the global tea trade.
Consumers want to know where their tea comes from, how it was produced, and whether environmental and labor standards are being met. At the same time, governments are tightening regulations, brands are facing new compliance requirements, and importers are seeking better visibility into sourcing risks. Today’s guest, Samuel Lambert, co-founder of ZenGate and architect of the Palmyra supply-chain platform, works at the intersection of blockchain, geospatial verification, and agricultural supply chains. In this Spotlight conversation, we explore how structured data—from farm mapping to chain-of-custody records—can transform traceability from a compliance burden into a far more powerful form of decision intelligence for global tea markets.| Podlink signup: https://pod.link/1549975153

Kingdom of Fraud
It’s the unlikeliest of criminal partnerships: a devout polygamist from an insular Utah sect joining forces with a shadowy Armenian tycoon from LA. The result - a billion dollar fraud conspiracy. In Kingdom of Fraud, investigative reporter Michele McPhee traces the origins of the extraordinary alliance between Jacob Kingston and Levon Termendzhyan. Together, the two men trigger the largest tax investigation in American history and weave around themselves a web of dirty cops, influential political relationships and transnational money laundering. All this is set against the backdrop of Jacob Kingston’s clan – The Order. A powerful and secretive polygamist organization in Salt Lake City. To whom Jacob is desperate to prove his worth.
