This is the only Mob Channel I watch man. No BS, No politics, just Mafia Shit. Greatest mafia channel hands down. What New York boss actually gave the ok for Stanfa to take over Philly? Or was it a commission ruling
Jeff I power watched your entire catalog of content this past year. I got a rare illness and it paralyzed where I was in the University of Michigan unable to walk for 3 months, after surgery and physical therapy, I'm back to normal. Thanks for being part of my process...If I wasn't sleeping I was listening to your show. I'm glad you got your original channel back up and going again. You and Scott Bernstein are the best at the genre. You got him in the interview part, you get good stuff from your guest, Scott specializes in the Detroit partnership and Canada and Philly he's more than knowledgeable.
Lifelong Philly native with a video request - Salvie Testa- The Crowned Prince of the Philly Mob.At least that’s what The NY Times thought.Nicky Scarfo thought differently,the nut bag
Salvie would have taken over one day and it just makes you wonder if a lot of these guys that were killed by their own people had lived how long would the mob truly have lasted.
If Scarfo wasn't such a psycho and didn't jam Crazy Phil up how long would Phil and Salvie been around to run the mob? It sucks to never get to see those guys reach their mobster potential.
@@thesitdownwithjeffnadu Also, good job on pronouncing South Philly Street names correctly 👏 :)..Obviously u really did live there at some point bc "Sigel" and "Bouvier" are usually said incorrectly by outsiders, but u did it right! Haha. Great vid as always
@@thesitdownwithjeffnadu I agree,l love the stories that are longer,too. I'm catching up on your channel videos from earlier please forget me for being late, Jeff. Great response as always.
@Warrior J. I,too, could listen to Philly mob history All day long. So much to tell about Mafia and All that goes with them. I love to listen and learn about things that really are important and factual events; that's why I love to listen to Jeff! He does his homework and gives US The real story. I'm a fan and a Philly girl, growing up spent ALOT of time with my grandparents when my parents were working alot. IT was a good lesson for me and a whole different life there than living in the 'burbs'. Great job Jeff AND keep Philly mob history coming! Absolutely an interesting interview and I love if you can do more of them!!! Thanks Jeff AND keep up your good work and style of reporting the factual events.
And another tremendous John John story is he said he once got in a beef with another member of the mob but at the time he had no idea the other guy was also a member and said “ how was I suppose to know he was a member too?! So after that, when I met someone I would just ask, are you in the mob too?!” Lol can’t make this shit up
Perfect response!! He certainly was something else. IT was a great story and he was truly broken in his life. He was said to have ALOT of great responses to situations AND they got him in trouble at times.(I read that in an article about him). Great job Jeff AND thanks for the story. You never seem to disappoint, you are so well, and I enjoy your informative and factual events.Good job, Jeff AND thanks again for everything you put into your podcasts.
I just found you on RUclips, I have to say you tell a great story. Really enjoy listening to your story's. You , Sammy , Jimmy and OC are my go to guys for mob story's. Keep up the great work !!!!
Philadelphia checking-in. Jeff I've watched several videos and I finally realize that you are from Philly. South Philly specifically I can hear it in your voice 😂 you have some of the best content out there brother! Keep up the great work 💪 GO BIRDS!!
I cant believe you dont have more subs than what you do with the guests u have on along with your knowledge and content. When your channel does blow up, its going to blow the roof off the whole thing over night!!! Greetings from Tampa aka shotgun city. You should do something on the trafficantes or some other old school tampa organized crime figures. Charlie walls story is fascinating.
South Philly was a good place to grow up. Love watching these mob videos. There are lots of mafia videos but I love watching the Philly videos. Keep up the great work !!!!!
I have read over a 100 mafia books and scene every movie there is. One that I liked but got terrible reviews was 10th and York. Great movie about South Philly gangsters. I went to Philly for work one weekend and we arrived late at night. I checked in to our hotel and left in the rain immediately and drove to South Philly and Passiunk Ave. to go get a Steak at Geno's it was amazing. I sat right outside in my truck and ate me Steak with Whiz and fries with Whiz and thought about all the mobsters who played on the ball field across the street and ate right where I was eating. South Philly was awesome we even road over to the Italian restaurant where Nicky Jr was shot by the say Skinny Joey, Anyway your channel is bad ass keep up the excellent work.
Im 100% Italian both grandparents came from Italy i live in south Philly all my life 10th and wolf my mom and dad new some ppl in the Philly mod ..I saw a hit when I was like 12 up Franklin and ritner me and my friends heared the gun shots we where playing hockey at the time and went to were we heard the shots and saw a dead body in the street..I'll never forget that..#Franklin&Ritner#10th&Wolf#215🇮🇹
Jeff sometimes people deserve to be hurt/ I have a neighbor that thinks his dogs can shit on my property/ so I had to beat the fk out of him/5 years later and I have to do it again/ my point is sometimes you really have to hurt someone who just doesn't understand/
I am from Delaware County, parents and grandparents came here from Italy. Many 100 percent of Italians lived in Delaware County, pop grew up 26 & Reed, mom grew up 11& Moyamensing.
My grandfather knew Long John from being President of The Philly Building Trades also knew his nephew Steve and ate their along with other family of man at his first restaurant Macaronis Steve’s restaurant that is. I could go on and on all the people my grandfather dealt with in Philly Mobsters,Politicians,Cops,judges,lawyers and Union Bosses. Great Video on Jon Jon Veasey I read in so many books the craziest stories that happened with him and Billy.
If he kicked a substantial hard drug habit cold turkey in a prison cell it is entirely feasible that he never touched drugs again. Unless you have done it, you can never understand how bad it is. It's not just the physical symptoms, although they are bad enough; it's the psychological nightmare you experience as well. We can never know if he did quit 100% forever, but it's more than possible. That's why in some ways a bareback cold turkey is the best method. It's not just getting off it's staying off!!!🙂👍💯🏴
@Jonathan Collier. IT certainly is possible!! MY x husband did it in prison;he was an intervenious drug user for a long time and got caught up in ALOT of shit; got to spend 13+years in prison. Had to go through ALOT to get off the Coke habit and it DOESN'T look pretty what he went through. The needle 💉 Was his favorite,yet, All of a sudden, IT All disappeared and he was Left to decide what he wanted to do. He said he could get any drug in prison,yet he chose to get clean. He went through hell; The physical and mental stages were awful and it took awhile before he left that behind him!! Now, thirty three years clean and he's never gone back to it. IT was amazing how he did it; cold turkey is absolutely a terrible way to do it; but that's what he chose and he's glad he did. Knowing he could get anything in prison;any drug I Was floored to get informed of it. So that MADE it much harder to quit. I'm proud of him for getting clean and reuniting with our beautiful daughter. He's come a long way!! Cold turkey is a BITCH!!!
I no when the voices. Begin that is when the battle erupts there is only 1 way 2 stay clean total abstinence 2 those out there u r right we done this 2 r self's but we become stronger with some positive thoughts rather than those negative ones so thank s 4 being behind us we need r Friends and family

Hey Mr. Nadu, Sorry I haven't been around but I've caught up on the last two videos you made I had to finish up that work on the fire restoration I'm really enjoying your show you put out a lot of information my friend, it's always good to get information from somebody who lived in the same town as the person we're discussing just tends to be more accurate lol
Great story bro..im a big flyers fan..know Philly well..i was in rehab at bowling greens..in Chester co..my room mate was skinny joeys neighbor..wow I shared many story's wit him bout north an south philly..an joey..i had a million questions..but Joey got out and he's living in Fla wit his mom..they have a real cool resturant!!✌✊🇺🇸🇮🇹sorry I thought that's what it was..💪🇮🇹❤
No offense, but u should be skeptical if ur friend even knew Joey..bc he didn't own pizzeria, neither did family. Plus every tv channel from Fox news to local stations have been covering Joey living in Florida since 2011. Also, South Philly is small, but not small enough to personally everyone outside ur neighborhood
@@thismothafuckasaid7304 yes I was wrong about that...sorry✌almost had it right..still I always admired the guys lifestlye..im just a freelance civillian..godbless✌🇮🇹❤

Frank Martines use to be part of the Harry Riccobini’s crew & that was said by Phil Leonetti. What I don’t understand is how in the hell did Frank become Stanfa’s underboss if he’s not Italian? Last time I checked Martines is a Spanish name and I thought for you to be part of the LCN you’re father had to be full blooded Italian?
U don't need to be anything to become a part of LCN, cos no such thing exists. It is Cosa Nostra/Our Thing. La Cosa Nostra translates to The Our Thing...that make any sense to u ? Hope u got it mate. Dont mean to be condescending, just want people to be aware that LCN is a mistake. Common one, but mistake nonetheless. Understand!
I got to be honest I wasn’t on your side when the war of the mafia genres were going on ! Lmao But u one me over I’m a subscriber ! Great job with this format !!
They actually came out of the bathroom and shot him in the back of the head with a 22 John turned around and said “ wtf u shot me “ then they fought and he ran out of the room !
John is not living in the witness protection program. He is not been living in the witness protection program for years. He is openly in the car business in indianapolis, and isn't hiding his identity at all. I had the privilege of working for him when he was a used car manager at another dealership in approximately 2014 or so. He's a good guy, and honest guy, and someone easy to do business with as long as you are on the up and up. He's just a normal guy.
My son lived at 5th and Christian for a while, 2013/2016. he now lives farther into South Philly cross the street from Gold Star Park on Manton. A MUCH nicer neighborhood.
@@thesitdownwithjeffnadu my grandfather is Anthony DiSalvo he was on trail with scarfo for racketeering. Linnetti ratted on him he only ended up doing a year
Have met John a handful of times. Very funny guy. Always friendly. Almost bought a motorcycle off of him a few years ago. You can still tell he is nobody to fuck with though
@@darrenforest1492 Very unique, and not just paraphrasing a single book-he seems to drill down to the bones of every story, and takes us through each layer as he peels them back.
Okay, so I can vouche for the dope-sick kick in lock up and staying sober. There are a whole of cats who have been forced down this route. Let me paint you a picture! So they come by and say I don't look so good. How astute of you deputy, isn't amazing the amount of isht and vomit can come out of one person. Of course they didn't want to touch me as I had just spent the better part of my day wallowing in this filth. I'd only move when my body spased again, alerting me that stomach acid needed to come on up! Finally, after being awake all of 11 days minus 15mins here or there, they decided I should get to my doctor! They figured they pushed my body almost to a stroke and the fun was over. All that fun watching a human on the brink of death w/o the paperwork for an actual body! Ppl wonder why I feel like I do for law enforcement. Doing a job is one thing, taking pleasure in another's pain is something else.
I'd like to hear more about the family closest to me, St. Louis's Giordano Crime Family. Tony G was a very, very powerful boss, w/close ties to the Chicago Outfit and the Detroit Partnership. And of course The Civella Family in KC.
@@thesitdownwithjeffnadu That's awesome! Tell em anything he needs to know abt St. Louis's Giordano Crime Family, or The Syrian Mob's leader there, & the last of the old Cuckoos, James 'Horseshoe Jimmy' Michaels.... I got em! Hehe. But don't worry, I'll definitely be watching! One can only here abt the Five Families, The DeCavalcantes, or the Bruno Family, outta Philly, so many times, ya know?! Great work, man. BTW, as an aside, Michael Franzese insists that Russell Bufalino wasn't a boss. That means he must've just been a very powerful caporegime in a family. I'm thinking the Brunos or The Genovese, if so. Anything you could find out abt that would be awesome, as well. You do great work, brother!👍
One thing about Italians mobsters or not and I’m 100% Italian and my wife is 100% Italian from Brooklyn we love our families specially the women the Italians protect the women with their lives at all times hell I went out last week to hunt a guy down that was pointing his finger in my wife’s face if I would’ve found that finger I would’ve broke it off luckily for me and him I didn’t find him it would’ve ended bad 🤷🏻♂️ I also love my father-in-law he was a straight up nice guy my wife’s maiden name is Duca my father-in-law‘s nick name was Duke he Fought in World War II landed in North Africa with the Americans worked his way up the boot of Italy met my mother-in-law in Naples they got married in a military wedding came to America she was a war bride a beautiful person inside and outside, I love my in-laws very much they passed away I miss them 💔❤️🔥.
That 100% Wop went away everywhere but Detroit years ago. John Gotti was married to a Russian jew and they made Jr. Detroit is how it was 60 years ago, blood relation to be considered.
John Gotti Jr. Is 1/2 Jewish Tommy Karate is also 1/2. I can see giving someone deserving so a pass if you're 50%. I hear they are even making guys who are only 1/4 Italian, if the Father's are Italian. The underground Club is about finished. The higher Up's are guys now in their 70's who didn't hold much merit back then and they escaped indictment, they are softer and the fear factor isn't in it anymore. This guy was a total nut. He got shot I believe 4 or 5 times and fought his killer's off.
@@thesitdownwithjeffnadu u take this stuff way to serious man ,I'm not correcting u ,in fact I could care less ,it's just conversation man that's it .U can know more than me about the mob I don't care ,I was gonna say u were smart for staying out of the bullshit with all these RUclips clowns ,but it don't matter because u got some complex with mob information or something like I'm correcting u when I could care the fuck less ,take it easy ,when u start making millions from you're show then u can act like this ,untill then it's a hobby that u should not take to serious .
@@DaveSCameron no David go back and look at the other comments he is very offended ,way to uptight for a RUclips channel on the mob ,I can tell he is wound up very tight by just watching him on here ,that's ok he does a good job and he has good info and all that ,but those last 2 comments I made were not correcting him it was just conversation that's all
You say children need parental guidance (true), but then say that the government needs to play the role of parent by providing the things that it is a parent's responsibility to provide. Completely contradictory.
This is the only Mob Channel I watch man. No BS, No politics, just Mafia Shit. Greatest mafia channel hands down. What New York boss actually gave the ok for Stanfa to take over Philly? Or was it a commission ruling
Two kids by 16, addicted to drugs with a mom in prison.... Yea sounds like South Philly.

Great Vid!! Everybody who knows goes to MELROSE..LOL
Frank Martines use to be part of the Harry Riccobini’s crew & that was said by Phil Leonetti. What I don’t understand is how in the hell did Frank become Stanfa’s underboss if he’s not Italian? Last time I checked Martines is a Spanish name and I thought for you to be part of the LCN you’re father had to be full blooded Italian?
U don't need to be anything to become a part of LCN, cos no such thing exists.
It is Cosa Nostra/Our Thing. La Cosa Nostra translates to The Our Thing...that make any sense to u ?
Hope u got it mate. Dont mean to be condescending, just want people to be aware that LCN is a mistake. Common one, but mistake nonetheless. Understand!
I got to be honest I wasn’t on your side when the war of the mafia genres were going on ! Lmao
But u one me over I’m a subscriber ! Great job with this format !!
thanks for watching Danny
“Won “
He ducks n dodges Joey and the rest of the guys takes pictures at 4 am. In Philly acting like he's out for them
Did you really say borough of prisons or am I bugging out?
why would I say borough... BUREAU
@@thesitdownwithjeffnadu I dunno closed captions picked it up as borough also just sayinnnn
They actually came out of the bathroom and shot him in the back of the head with a 22 John turned around and said “ wtf u shot me “ then they fought and he ran out of the room !
John is not living in the witness protection program. He is not been living in the witness protection program for years. He is openly in the car business in indianapolis, and isn't hiding his identity at all. I had the privilege of working for him when he was a used car manager at another dealership in approximately 2014 or so. He's a good guy, and honest guy, and someone easy to do business with as long as you are on the up and up. He's just a normal guy.
My son lived at 5th and Christian for a while, 2013/2016. he now lives farther into South Philly cross the street from Gold Star Park on Manton. A MUCH nicer neighborhood.
Hey Jeff Iam John jumbo DiSalvos nephew. Pretty cool hearing his name I listen to your show often. Ever want to talk let me know
thanks for watching... i will
@@thesitdownwithjeffnadu my grandfather is Anthony DiSalvo he was on trail with scarfo for racketeering. Linnetti ratted on him he only ended up doing a year
Have met John a handful of times. Very funny guy. Always friendly. Almost bought a motorcycle off of him a few years ago. You can still tell he is nobody to fuck with though
Something has to change bro
John and his brother had to be hard men to survive.
Amen
was jon jon ever made ? i cant remember
yes Stanfa made him
Way better than FBS. Good shit!
Great, original story. I would imagine we’ll see copycat stories all over YT within 6 months
thanks for watching my man
Yeah it's hard to keep ahead of the rest of the mainstream top 20. Just love Jeff's research and detailed telling. Cheers from Australia
@@darrenforest1492 Very unique, and not just paraphrasing a single book-he seems to drill down to the bones of every story, and takes us through each layer as he peels them back.
Sorry for longer video?... More info is always better coming from you
thanks Peter
It's crazy cause Scarfo went to New York for permission to kill Stanfa cause Stanfa wasn't supposed to go back to Philly
Okay, so I can vouche for the dope-sick kick in lock up and staying sober. There are a whole of cats who have been forced down this route. Let me paint you a picture! So they come by and say I don't look so good. How astute of you deputy, isn't amazing the amount of isht and vomit can come out of one person. Of course they didn't want to touch me as I had just spent the better part of my day wallowing in this filth. I'd only move when my body spased again, alerting me that stomach acid needed to come on up! Finally, after being awake all of 11 days minus 15mins here or there, they decided I should get to my doctor! They figured they pushed my body almost to a stroke and the fun was over. All that fun watching a human on the brink of death w/o the paperwork for an actual body! Ppl wonder why I feel like I do for law enforcement. Doing a job is one thing, taking pleasure in another's pain is something else.
I'd like to hear more about the family closest to me, St. Louis's Giordano Crime Family. Tony G was a very, very powerful boss, w/close ties to the Chicago Outfit and the Detroit Partnership. And of course The Civella Family in KC.
you're in luck... i am doing a podcast with Gary Jenkins, the king of KC mafia history soon
@@thesitdownwithjeffnadu That's awesome! Tell em anything he needs to know abt St. Louis's Giordano Crime Family, or The Syrian Mob's leader there, & the last of the old Cuckoos, James 'Horseshoe Jimmy' Michaels.... I got em! Hehe. But don't worry, I'll definitely be watching! One can only here abt the Five Families, The DeCavalcantes, or the Bruno Family, outta Philly, so many times, ya know?! Great work, man. BTW, as an aside, Michael Franzese insists that Russell Bufalino wasn't a boss. That means he must've just been a very powerful caporegime in a family. I'm thinking the Brunos or The Genovese, if so. Anything you could find out abt that would be awesome, as well. You do great work, brother!👍
It looks like snow from informer
Great fucking video.
thanks for watching
John veasy remind me of my friend god rest his soul exactly the same face and personality
john veasey is still alive
@@thesitdownwithjeffnadu yeah I know .Talking about my friend.
My grandfather's cousin was Frank Martines
*is* ... Frank is still alive. My grandfather recently passed
One thing about Italians mobsters or not and I’m 100% Italian and my wife is 100% Italian from Brooklyn we love our families specially the women the Italians protect the women with their lives at all times hell I went out last week to hunt a guy down that was pointing his finger in my wife’s face if I would’ve found that finger I would’ve broke it off luckily for me and him I didn’t find him it would’ve ended bad 🤷🏻♂️ I also love my father-in-law he was a straight up nice guy my wife’s maiden name is Duca my father-in-law‘s nick name was Duke he Fought in World War II landed in North Africa with the Americans worked his way up the boot of Italy met my mother-in-law in Naples they got married in a military wedding came to America she was a war bride a beautiful person inside and outside, I love my in-laws very much they passed away I miss them 💔❤️🔥.
That's because Angelo taught him well but he set him up with Tony bananas to kill Angelo smh
Frackville was my home jail not in 92 though
Veasey Surname is not Italiano. It would be spelled Vesci. Veasey is French or Norman. The Normans did conquer Sicilia for a while though.
Good job Jeff !!
What do you mean? They're all miscreants, and most of them turn out to be rats.
I hope hes scaring the shit out of the people who he believes killed his brother
Jason Mayhem Miller was a hitman? Damn!
there are plenty of guys in all races that get high and put in a lot of work
That 100% Wop went away everywhere but Detroit years ago. John Gotti was married to a Russian jew and they made Jr.
Detroit is how it was 60 years ago, blood relation to be considered.
Wasn’t he on 60 minutes ?
John Gotti Jr. Is 1/2 Jewish Tommy Karate is also 1/2. I can see giving someone deserving so a pass if you're 50%. I hear they are even making guys who are only 1/4 Italian, if the Father's are Italian. The underground Club is about finished. The higher Up's are guys now in their 70's who didn't hold much merit back then and they escaped indictment, they are softer and the fear factor isn't in it anymore. This guy was a total nut. He got shot I believe 4 or 5 times and fought his killer's off.
You're dad has to be a hundred percent Italian now ,that's how Gotti Jr got made I think
I’m well aware
@@thesitdownwithjeffnadu u take this stuff way to serious man ,I'm not correcting u ,in fact I could care less ,it's just conversation man that's it .U can know more than me about the mob I don't care ,I was gonna say u were smart for staying out of the bullshit with all these RUclips clowns ,but it don't matter because u got some complex with mob information or something like I'm correcting u when I could care the fuck less ,take it easy ,when u start making millions from you're show then u can act like this ,untill then it's a hobby that u should not take to serious .
@@DaveSCameron no David go back and look at the other comments he is very offended ,way to uptight for a RUclips channel on the mob ,I can tell he is wound up very tight by just watching him on here ,that's ok he does a good job and he has good info and all that ,but those last 2 comments I made were not correcting him it was just conversation that's all
Why children need parents guidance blame American tax system that doesn't provide preschool or after school services
amen
You say children need parental guidance (true), but then say that the government needs to play the role of parent by providing the things that it is a parent's responsibility to provide. Completely contradictory.
Not something to glorify
