EVERY IDEA HAS A SOURCE

Sources come first.

AskMonty is an independent project. The website, editorial text and summaries are AI-generated; original resources belong to their authors. It is not Marco Montemagno’s official website and does not imply his endorsement.

What you can search

The index combines selected resources and public podcast/blog feed metadata: titles, dates, links and topics. Original titles remain in Italian in the English interface. New items are automatically tagged from their titles; tags may be incomplete. Entries labelled “Title and date from the official feed” are not content summaries.

This is not a complete copy of everything Montemagno has published. Coverage of YouTube, social posts, courses and books is partial. Use the official channel links to explore material not yet indexed.

Dates, updates and limitations

Dates come from the source and identify publication or a specific edition. The check date identifies when feeds were retrieved. An undated resource is not presented as new. Older entries are retained as feeds change.

Official pages can contain conflicting information: Lavorability uses its 2020 edition; Tutto Montemagno uses the 2021 listing for ISBN 9788891832719. The official homepage gives different years. Past events are marked; no upcoming show with a future date was verified.

An answer in Monty’s style?

That is a possible next step: an AI assistant with a direct tone, concrete examples and verifiable sources. This version provides resource search, not generative conversation. Answering about an episode’s contents will require authorised, checked text, not just its title. An independent assistant must never pretend to be Marco or invent his quotations.

Monty’s words

The dictionary collects recurring expressions and references, with AI editorial explanations and usage sources where available. Community suggestions without a public reference are labelled; episode-specific symbols identify expressions documented in the title or content.

Quizzes and curiosities: how we choose the facts

Every quiz pairs one documented fact with three invented alternatives. Answers are shuffled each time. The reveal includes the source and date; a past announcement does not prove an event took place. The text is an AI retelling, not a quotation from Marco.

Sources checked on 15 September 2026. With analytics consent, we save quiz results to improve the game. You can play without consenting.

A NOTE ON THE IMAGES

Images to accompany the ideas.

Selected episodes have dedicated illustrations generated with AI by AskMonty from their titles. These are independent visual interpretations, not official covers, photographs of guests or verified summaries of the audio. The “AI illustration” label identifies them.

Videos can also have dedicated AI illustrations based on their titles, shown on cards and before loading the player. These are not official YouTube thumbnails, video frames or verified summaries. The local illustration does not load the player: YouTube activates only after your click.

Podcasts, videos, books, articles, projects and events have a default AI illustration for each format: a microphone, a video camera, an open book, editorial pages, a planning board and a stage. These are generic images, not official covers or depictions of particular people, recordings, publications, projects or events. When an episode or video has dedicated artwork, it automatically replaces the default.

Each resource keeps the same illustration in Italian and English. The images adapt to cards and pages.
