  • #309 From Guns to Tobacco: An Inside Look at the ATF with FBI Agent Donald Soranno

    The interview is with FBI Agent Donald Soranno, who has spent more than 26 years as a special agent in the ATF, which stands for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives. The ATF originally started as an agency responsible for the collection of taxes on tobacco manufacturers, alcohol manufacturers, and the regulation of the firearms industry. Over time, the agency also started actual criminal investigations, and after 9/11, it added explosives to its name, focusing on the criminal use of explosive devices, while the FBI focused on the terrorist use of explosive devices. Soranno discusses how the agency is responsible for licensing tobacco manufacturers, alcohol distributors, and stores that sell firearms. He mentions investigations he was involved in regarding tobacco smuggling, where individuals were driving to states with lower taxes on cigarettes and selling them on the black market, earning millions of dollars a year, and even funneling some of the profits to terrorist organizations overseas. He also worked on explosive-related cases and oversaw the arson explosive group while in Chicago. He also worked on the National Explosives Task Force, which looked at every explosive incident that happened in the United States and had to determine if they were criminal acts or terrorist acts. Soranno describes the agency's role in investigating the Boston Marathon bombing and how they identified some of the individuals from the video footage.

    • Coaching for the Long Term Development of Age Groupers by Amy Parratto | ASCA Talk #006

      This week's ⁠American Swimming Coaches Association⁠ talk comes from ⁠Amy Parratto⁠. At the time of this talk, Amy and husband Mike Parratto were coaching the Seacoast Swimming Association (SSA) in New Hampshire. In 2010, after 26 years at Seacoast, they moved to Indiana where they both coached at Lawrence Swim Team while their daughter Jessica trained at the USA Diving National Training Center based out of IUPUI. They finally ended up in Minnesota where they run ⁠Riptide Swim Team⁠ in Apple Valley.

      Amy has coached both swimming and diving since 1983 in New Hampshire and Indiana. She is an ASCA Level 4 certified coach. In addition to her coaching duties, she serves as Riptide's team manager. Amy is a graduate of Wellesley College ('83) where she swam and dove all four years and earned a B.A. in Psychology and Studio Art. She is a five-time All-American in diving and was inducted into the Wellesley Athletics Hall of Fame in 2018. Amy and Mike have coached together since 1984. They have two grown daughters - Melissa and Jessica, a 2016 Rio Olympian in the individual and synchronized platform events and 2020 Tokyo Silver Medalist in synchronized platform diving.

      Amy's talk discusses the long-term development of age groupers in swimming, and the strategies coaches can use to keep swimmers motivated and engaged.
