Yes he's a phenomenal story teller! I'm on a Michael Franzese binge too! I love his mannerisms, mentality, truth, and everything he says he stands for. I believe what he says!
I’m not a man of faith but after reading your book, “I’ll make you an offer you can’t refuse” you inspired me to read the Bible again! A lot of great stuff in Proverbs. Thanks for the videos, Michael 🇮🇹🙏
L The only way to broaden your perspective and gain a better understanding of this world is to read, travel and engage with people and communities outside of your own. With a mindset that defaults to ‘no’ you will only limit your own growth and never see your full potential. By the time your grown and middle aged, having read/researched not only Christianity, Islam, Judaism and their texts but other polytheistic religions to discover the perspective of their followers. Also, by that age travelling to somewhere on all of the main continents in this world, is the only way to truly grasp what this world is about. I can say that before I was exposed to all of those things, I was unable to truly sympathise and understand where my fellow man is coming from. Since going through all of that, combined with every day life is what has given me the ability to genuinely appreciate life for what it is meant to be. Now, as a 32 year old, I’m ready to move onto the next chapter which for me involves giving back as much as possible in my own way and passing my lifetime of learning on to my son - with the hope that he takes it to the next level. Without such a well rounded background, what could I really pass on to my son? Unfortunately like many people these days, it would be limited to quite a superficial world view ... which is just a shame but I guess at the same time ignorance is bliss. Relevant old saying here is .. if you knew better you’d do better ... and this isn’t directed at you specifically but the world around me .. and to that end I’m glad to be in NJ versus parts of the Deep South where this general ignorance runs deep and some of these sad ppl are even outwardly happy/proud of being ignorant or limited to the tiny world that is their little town/city ... sad people, I feel bad for their kids ..
@@MoAli-wm4of I mean the Quran is hypocritical and fake honestly. In a way the bible proves that Muhammed is a fake. Jesus knows Muhammed would come that's why he said many will come and say I am the christ but do not be deceived. Also there is a verse in the Quran that basically says Allah approves of beating your wife if you want to hear that.
@@sunflowersamurai333 what you do realise the bibel jusstified slavery and genocide of none belivers. It's all bullshit written by so many people and its outdated. Every religion on the planet is outdated cancer that should die and everyone who thinks the word of bibel is true should rethink their life
Wow as a Christian wife and a mother I found this video very inspiring. It makes you want to do even more to ensure your family are in a good place and doing their best. God bless you you.
I left the party life about 7 years ago and have stopped talking to friends because of bad situations. I have stayed beside my wife and my 3 kids, I’ll tell you Michael the best move I’ve ever made. Love listening to you because you give me more strength 👊🏼... Thank you!
THE most authentic mob guy you'll ever see online. Most people do this for the money, but obviously michael doesnt need it. Great to hear the history of how REAL men lived back in the day. Truely appreciate the time you take to make these videos. Thank you sir!
That is a beautiful thing. I met the love of my life a beautiful woman from El Salvador named Roxy in 1997 we are still married to this day. True Love makes life worth living.
Michael you have inspired me to change my entire life and get myself out of my bad situations you have no idea how much respect I have for you and not just for your past. You sir are a living legend a lot of respect from Ireland.
That’s truly awesome. You know you are doing something right when people tell you, you’ve changed their life. I have a channel and when people tell me I’ve helped them, it means everything to me. If my story helps someone, then everything I’m doing is worth it.
This guy is like Klopp while Sammy is kinda' Guardiola in my opinion. They can run your ailing neighborhood 7-11 and turn it into mega million buisness empire
This is why I listen and keep up with all the videos. its from the heart, it's authentic and some of these advice are life changing. Some on the other side, not so much. People from the outside looking in, trying to change the narrative of someone's life and bash his character. That thing never works. Its clear to me who's telling the truth and who's not and I'm glad your still alive and well. Thank you Mr.Franzese!
Been studying the mafia for ten years now. Between listening to the stories about the Chicago outfit, the Five Families, the Philly Mob and even talking to former wise guys from the Cleveland and Pittsburgh families, you sound genuine in your words. Respect.
When I was a teenager I was out parting and getting high almost every night. My poor mother basically gave up trying to control me. But she kept praying. The one consistent ray of light in my life during that time, was almost every time I walked in the door (high and God knows what I had just done) she was sitting there in our living room with her bible on her lap. She just showed me love, and I knew she knew everything. I gave my life to the Lord 20 years ago. I’ve been in ministry about 15 of those years and have a family that I’m able to love and take care of. The influence of just one person, even if it’s subtle, if Gods in it, it can change a life. Appreciate his story in this clip. Just made me think of my sweet, Jesus loving mom!
All your stories are VERY inspiring. A real man admits his faith and there's so many lost souls out there. I hope more young people will listen to these lessons and change their lives. There are so many kids out there growing up without their fathers and they need influence
All due respect. Michael in his late 20s early thirties looks like someone you could smack. Now when you look at him he looks like the last person you would smack!! He's like wine he's definitely gotten better with age!! You just can't ever underestimate the value of a good woman!!
Meeting my dear wife was a turning point in my life. I had to travel 1000 miles to meet her but I will never change that for anything. Thanks for meeting you
I grew up not glamorizing mobsters but I’ve always had a large interest in them and their lives. I really love hearing the stories from someone who was in that life and always relates it to a real life lesson that everyone can learn from.
That's right bro. This is a rare thing to have these days coming from very liberal feminist women. If most woman where VIRTUOUS, their would be less divorces, separations, hate ,mistrust etc. Between the man and the woman. Woman need to give a man a reason to believe , love and trust in her. She's his helper.
@@firstnamelastname6717 yes his helper Not someone to be used, dumped on, punched, manipulated, bullied, belittled, betrayed, talked down to, ignored, berated, or any thing similar to that. She is his help mate his helper. I could go one but I won't.
I could listen to you all day. I actually tuned in because your name came up when I was trying to explain to my 15 year old what the mafia is and how it works. It was a gift that you were not only interesting and direct but that you are a Christian who loves to talk about his faith. You and your wife are blessed to have each other. Thanks for putting yourself out there.
U have an extreme ministry. You're changing and touching many lives. An assignment given by God. Different believers of God just can't understand and accept you're assignment. You're push is of God not self will. God bless U Mighty Man Of God!!! I Love U
You have 100% power to change. Most dont because they cant do it. If you pray and ask Jesus Christ to come into your life and save you from sins wages, which is death. When you do that the Holy Spirit of God will come and seal your salvation by living in you. He will help you overcome anything! So, it's all up to you to seek him, it really is your choice. God bless and put God to the challenge...I did!
I'm 4o and had two women like that and I fucked up both situations and I never cheated or hit them. I was young and picked my street fame and my friends over them and now I'm scared God is not going bring another great woman into my life to live since I have ruined it twice before
I’m not religious sorry, plus I’m not expecting someone to come along, if that happens great, if it doesn’t happen I’m okay with that too !. Thanks for for thinking about thou, I do appreciate it.
"Whatever God has put together, let no man put asunder" Sir I'm a fan of your content all the way from South Africa. I have to say that this is probably the best snippet I've listened to in your series.🙌. I relate so much to this account of you and your wife's faith, not so much the events that took place in your lives more than the essence and evidence of your faith's substance. I truly believe that one to really derive true meaningfulness out of life, Our Heavenly Father must be the one to connect the dots. We derive inspiration from your testimony Sir. I also am very blessed by the video you share an account of how you feel about your Dad🙌. Great work Mike, and may God bless and extend you and continue to work through your life, you and your wife.
This is one of the only channels I make a point to not skip the ads, to ensure it’s a profitable venture... the world so badly needs more truth, more sage advice and more faith. Thank you, Mr. Franzese ❤️
I've been watching Mike's video for years now. This is, in my opinion, the best video. The most significant. Well done Mike. Hope to visit the pizzeria. Grace and peace to the Franzese family. Look forward to future videos. Thanks.
Love you mike. You're an inspiration. God knows how to get people's attention. We love mob movies and many are fascinated by real mobsters. As a former mobster, you're a perfect choice for planting seeds in our hearts.
I love how Mike is just a normal straight talking family guy. Unfortunate that you entered a life of crime but now using your example to help others out. Good on you Mikey.
Yo Mike, iI can hear and feel the realness pouring out of your heart when you talk about your wife. That's beautiful my guy. Respect. Keep up the fantastic work. Also, I'm glad I can come to you on your own platform instead of someone else's. Your inspiring. Peace to you and your family. Thanks.
I absolutely love franzese. This guy has so much wisdom and ability to see himself and his situation with a discerning eye. Got the gift of gab and charisma to tell insanely interesting stories for days.
So just like 99% of US "schmucks", we go saved from our ladies! By no means was I a mafia guy but more a street guy. My wife firmly pulled my head out of my ass & set me moving forward in the right direction. Gotta love the ladies in our lives!!!
I’ve been hooked for weeks...this is the only channel I have notification turned on. As former military leader/member for 22 yrs I can relate to the discipline and rules in his stories. As to where I am my life, sometimes I feel lost without the military structure in my life but I am grateful for my family especially my wife, who has stuck with me through all these years and the stress that came along with multiple deployments. Forget about it!
Mike, big fan. I love what you’re doing with the channel. Really totally pro. Good stuff man! From a Catholic kid who admires you, your story, and message, I say thanks!
Michael. I have to admit that at times I questioned your sincerity. However after opening your personal life by showing your wife and hearing her words; there is no question. You are the real thing. Best to you and your family. Thank you
I so enjoy listening to you speak about your life now and I’m Cosa Nostra, you’re a wonderful speaker, articulate, quietly spoken and I truly enjoy all your interviews and content on your RUclips channel. Stay safe and happy.
Great story, ya know it’s funny how one person/one thing can flip your whole perspective on life. Thanks for sharing this with us. Have a great day hoss.
You know in a time of doubt and a lot of lies being said in the world. It's great to hear a humble and honest man just tell how it is. Just that alone is a breath of fresh air. The more I watch these videos. The more Michael Franzese has become a real life hero to me.
I've been binging on all your videos since I found them. I like all of them for different reasons. This one really stands out to me. Love it.So much respect to you and your family.
When I was younger I watched the “cosa nostra” documentary. And I didn’t know who you were, but of all mob shows, movies, documentaries I had ever watched for some reason your face, your mannerisms, and demeanor of speech never left my mind your words had power in that documentary and they really stuck. When you said you showed up late to an event and then you were told to show up at another event, and they had you waiting for hours and they rolled up on you asked you if you “got the point” for some reason I never forgot that. And now that you’re out on this RUclips platform I have watched your videos nonstop. Mr. Franzese you are true inspiration with power behind your words that make a lot of people act. You’re awesome!
Hey Michael, you truly possess a special talent for capturing the attention of your viewers when telling stories about your past, and present. Love your channel brother.
I'm going through a bad problem with an addiction that hurt my family and destroyed my marriage. After hearing you it really opened my heart and mind. I'm going to make a better life and be a better person. Thank you Micheal🙏👍❤ Sincerely
Not only are these stories super interesting to listen to they are actually really encouraging, I'm a former heavy alcoholic who is not completely broken free of that but these vids help me stay on the right path plus I'm finally gonna start working again and getting back on my feet, so huge thanks Michael for the great content and advice in life, now lets get this man to the 100k subscriber mark boys and girls. :)
Again great content, straight to the point and doesn't beat around the bush. Nearly 100k subscribers within a month since starting your channel. Looking forward to you hitting that 1 million, You deserve it.
Im sittung watching from the Phillippines.I am a disabled Navy Veteran.Your videos are helping me so much and making my thinking stronger more positive.

Just found this channel and i can't stop listening to all your stories. Michael this is great stuff . Thank you for taking the time out of your schedule to do this. Not only is it extremely entertaining but being sicilian it's kind of cool to learn about how the old culture was before everything got drowned out. Thanks again Mike. I'll be subscribing and listening when I can.
Wow, I love this story!! Wonderful testimony. That's a great woman and so is her mom! So many men have a good woman and they don't realize it or appreciate it. A woman of noble character is a blessing from God!
I love to listen to you. My wife and her mother had the same influence on me. My mother in law was my religion teacher when I was a kid. Thank you for telling these stories. It’s so helpful. Thank You Michael very much
Such a great storyteller, Hollywood should get in touch with Michael about writing a story on life in the Mafia. His insights would make it a gripping story.
I've been getting into mob history mainly because of the Godfather and let me say I love these stories from listening to them and learning from them. Thanks for the great content keep it up Mr. Franzese!
I don’t think you understand how happy I am that you made your own RUclips channel... I first seen you on American Mob from National Geographic and have been a supporter ever since.
Mr. Franzese, you are a very wise man, and I appreciate you sharing your stories. I am certain there are many haters and doubters out there , but for many of us you are an inspiration. Thanks
Love hearing about your lovely wife and children. What a blessing. Behind every good man is a good woman. That support can be the difference in lasting change.✨
Quickly becoming one of the hottest true crime channels on this platform. Love it! Thanks for taking the time Michael (from the UK) His websites well worth checking out also! :)

Think he gets paid for the full add after 5 seconds. Either way I keep them running just in case
I thought they got paid for ads either
Skip ads because youtubers don't get more money.. That's a myth
I haven't thought about this. I will do the same now 🙂

I love that you never downplay the role of the women in your life. It was great to hear your wife's perspective on things! 🥰💕
Downplay his wife? Of course not! Without her in his life he'd be dead or in jail!
Having a wife like that is treasure from heaven.

I've been watching Mike's video for years now. This is, in my opinion, the best video. The most significant. Well done Mike. Hope to visit the pizzeria. Grace and peace to the Franzese family. Look forward to future videos. Thanks.
Love you mike. You're an inspiration. God knows how to get people's attention. We love mob movies and many are fascinated by real mobsters. As a former mobster, you're a perfect choice for planting seeds in our hearts.
FRANZESE’S words always brings me chills.. such a straight good hearted well rounded stand-up guy.. EXTREMELY motivational
God bless you Michael it’s great to have a woman of God behind your back! Very organic stuff
I love how Mike is just a normal straight talking family guy. Unfortunate that you entered a life of crime but now using your example to help others out. Good on you Mikey.
Yo Mike, iI can hear and feel the realness pouring out of your heart when you talk about your wife. That's beautiful my guy. Respect. Keep up the fantastic work. Also, I'm glad I can come to you on your own platform instead of someone else's. Your inspiring. Peace to you and your family. Thanks.
I absolutely love franzese. This guy has so much wisdom and ability to see himself and his situation with a discerning eye. Got the gift of gab and charisma to tell insanely interesting stories for days.
So just like 99% of US "schmucks", we go saved from our ladies! By no means was I a mafia guy but more a street guy.
My wife firmly pulled my head out of my ass & set me moving forward in the right direction.
Gotta love the ladies in our lives!!!
I’ve been hooked for weeks...this is the only channel I have notification turned on.
As former military leader/member for 22 yrs I can relate to the discipline and rules in his stories.
As to where I am my life, sometimes I feel lost without the military structure in my life but I am grateful for my family especially my wife, who has stuck with me through all these years and the stress that came along with multiple deployments. Forget about it!
Mike, big fan. I love what you’re doing with the channel. Really totally pro. Good stuff man! From a Catholic kid who admires you, your story, and message, I say thanks!
I cannot get enough of Michael Franzese. He is a history book of knowledge and insight. Keep the info coming
I’d watch a movie about your life. Keep it up man I really love watching your videos, very inspiring stuff!
I think he would make a great actor in a high budge mob Hollywood movie.
Michael. I have to admit that at times I questioned your sincerity. However after opening your personal life by showing your wife and hearing her words; there is no question. You are the real thing. Best to you and your family. Thank you
I so enjoy listening to you speak about your life now and I’m Cosa Nostra, you’re a wonderful speaker, articulate, quietly spoken and I truly enjoy all your interviews and content on your RUclips channel. Stay safe and happy.
Great story, ya know it’s funny how one person/one thing can flip your whole perspective on life. Thanks for sharing this with us. Have a great day hoss.
I love hearing people like this gentleman.As a Christian myself when I see God turn someone like this around it truly is something to rejoice over.
You know in a time of doubt and a lot of lies being said in the world. It's great to hear a humble and honest man just tell how it is. Just that alone is a breath of fresh air. The more I watch these videos. The more Michael Franzese has become a real life hero to me.
The best story!! We should all be so lucky to have a love like yours!!
I've been binging on all your videos since I found them. I like all of them for different reasons. This one really stands out to me. Love it.So much respect to you and your family.
My wife saved me from a life of demise.I owe her everything.........
Michael youre awesome man. I could literally sit and listen to your stories for hours. Saluti!
I dunno why anyone would not like this, this man expresses and shows his heart on his sleeve.. life lessons to coming to faith.. thumbs up Mr. MIKE
This guy would of been a leader in any field he he chose a true gent very intelligent and full of morals and principles.
i could listen to him all day
This story is why I'm a huge fan. I respect anyone who changes their life- for the better- for love.
Love that, “I always felt God’s presences”, great testimony 🙏🏼.
The power of Christlikeness!!!
When I was younger I watched the “cosa nostra” documentary. And I didn’t know who you were, but of all mob shows, movies, documentaries I had ever watched for some reason your face, your mannerisms, and demeanor of speech never left my mind your words had power in that documentary and they really stuck. When you said you showed up late to an event and then you were told to show up at another event, and they had you waiting for hours and they rolled up on you asked you if you “got the point” for some reason I never forgot that. And now that you’re out on this RUclips platform I have watched your videos nonstop. Mr. Franzese you are true inspiration with power behind your words that make a lot of people act. You’re awesome!
Hey Michael, you truly possess a special talent for capturing the attention of your viewers when telling stories about your past, and present. Love your channel brother.
This is what I love about you Michael, a OG tryin tell us to do right because living that wrong life not going get you nowhere.
Digging the fully-stocked bar (and Old Glory) in the background, Michael! Blessings -
I'm going through a bad problem with an addiction that hurt my family and destroyed my marriage. After hearing you it really opened my heart and mind. I'm going to make a better life and be a better person. Thank you Micheal🙏👍❤ Sincerely
Not only are these stories super interesting to listen to they are actually really encouraging, I'm a former heavy alcoholic who is not completely broken free of that but these vids help me stay on the right path plus I'm finally gonna start working again and getting back on my feet, so huge thanks Michael for the great content and advice in life, now lets get this man to the 100k subscriber mark boys and girls. :)
what a wise man. hard to believe this soft spoken man had been in the mob and left and can still give these kinds of insights. what a great channel
He gives the best advice, and he is a very good man he has all my respect
getting involved with that life to help your father,then walking away from it because of love. you have a beautiful heart Micheal!!

Im sittung watching from the Phillippines.I am a disabled Navy Veteran.Your videos are helping me so much and making my thinking stronger more positive.

Michael, your wife really is something special. And she is just a flat out beautiful, humble woman.
Michael, John from Tennessee.....so great that you give credit where credit is due. As always, God bless my friend, John from Tennessee
Just found this channel and i can't stop listening to all your stories. Michael this is great stuff . Thank you for taking the time out of your schedule to do this. Not only is it extremely entertaining but being sicilian it's kind of cool to learn about how the old culture was before everything got drowned out. Thanks again Mike. I'll be subscribing and listening when I can.
I listen to this knowledge closely. It's not often you're able to gain this type of viewpoint from both sides. Good stuff!
Wow, I love this story!! Wonderful testimony. That's a great woman and so is her mom! So many men have a good woman and they don't realize it or appreciate it. A woman of noble character is a blessing from God!
Can't stop listening to you Michael, such an inspiration.
I love to listen to you. My wife and her mother had the same influence on me. My mother in law was my religion teacher when I was a kid. Thank you for telling these stories. It’s so helpful. Thank You Michael very much
"You can take the boy outta Brooklyn, but you can't take Brooklyn outta the boy." Great quote!
Such a great storyteller, Hollywood should get in touch with Michael about writing a story on life in the Mafia. His insights would make it a gripping story.
I've been getting into mob history mainly because of the Godfather and let me say I love these stories from listening to them and learning from them. Thanks for the great content keep it up Mr. Franzese!
I don’t think you understand how happy I am that you made your own RUclips channel... I first seen you on American Mob from National Geographic and have been a supporter ever since.
A stand up guy comes from a great woman in his life indeed
Mr. Franzese, you are a very wise man, and I appreciate you sharing your stories. I am certain there are many haters and doubters out there , but for many of us you are an inspiration. Thanks
You made a great choice in choosing your beautiful wife over the mob life. Behind every strong man there's is a stronger woman. Good luck micheal .
Love hearing about your lovely wife and children. What a blessing. Behind every good man is a good woman. That support can be the difference in lasting change.✨
Quickly becoming one of the hottest true crime channels on this platform. Love it! Thanks for taking the time Michael (from the UK) His websites well worth checking out also! :)
In the clip of you speaking of faith you’re a mirror image of your father. Never noticed before.
Always wonderful. Thank you ❤️🇨🇦
