Moral of the story:
Don't worry about it.
Forgetaboutit
Maybe they both got killed at the same year:/ but forgetaboutit
😂
@@zeke2388 Exactly!
This man killed my cousin tony, and my uncle giovanni but like I told my aunt lucia, just forgetta boutt it.
The "crew" I hung out with as a teenager was a sure path to prison or death for me. And I had a bad feeling. One day I noticed a Military recruitment center, walked in, and joined the Navy. Back from a couple months of Bootcamp and two had been killed in a robbery. Four years later when I finished my service, ALL of my pals were in prison or dead.
You did the right thing and were smart enough to see where you were at in life.
@@chazgirl6186 I don’t know if I’d call it smart...I was lucky to have a good father who told me what to expect if I kept hanging out with my “friends.” I miss him.
Minus a few details we have the same story.
Goodness what a story and testament...
There's a reason you are alive.q
qim so glad you had that guy feeling God gives us to stay outta tr1oub1le or death
Good luck in life. Wish you well young man
Come on, think about all the fun you missed
Utterly heartbreaking. To think you lived through all these things and still came out the other side as such a good hearted person. Really inspirational.
The thing is not all criminals are evil as what the media seems to make them out To be.
@@aceofcheems7685 yeah well some people are just born into that life like Michael here
He is not good hearted. He is a killer. Fascinating to listen to? yes, but he was a killer.
Mr. Franzese's charisma is off the charts, and the stories are powerful, captivating, and morally informative.
It's amazing that we get to hear these stories for free.
Not free, you have to watch dreaded ads every 2-3 minutes

Shhhh
RUclips made me a recommendation I couldn't refuse...

Lol i really did 🤣
Best comment ever!
Underrated comment lol
Haha. Well played!
Thank you, Mr. Michael. I don't think I've ever heard anyone talk of the courage it takes to commit suicide. Suicide is the hardest decision anyone can make. It takes incredible pain (emotional, physical, etc.) to go over that tipping point. My heart felt condolences for the loss of your dear friend. He was not a coward. 💗
Your body fires ever neuron and synapse in itself as your trying to kill yourself trying to make you not do it like if you see in a movie or tv show someone about to shoot themselves if they make the gun shake or their finger tremble a lot its their brain telling the body not to even though youve made up your mind the body still goes into self preservation trying to stop it
My relative took his own life 4 years back, stunned us all, many emotions of course my heart went out to his parents especially, late 70s, but I told them that he was at peace,I hope he is
Am I the only one that loves micheal’s “don’t worry about it” I’m about to turn that into a ringtone 😂
Add a "Forget About It" and boy I'm gonna ask my people to text me/call me every couple of hours...
I remember Jimmy “The Weasel” Fratiano was asked how he balanced his Catholicism with being a mobster. He simply replied, “We weren’t good Catholics”.
🤣🤣🤣 just a lil´ bit
Well that is the reason when you TaKe the oath to la Cosa nostra you denounce virgin Mary and god, burn that saint Mary picture in your hand.
@@oggamer3737 Every family has a different version of the oath. I've never heard of any that denounce the Virgin Mary or God, though. And the prayer card that's burnt also depends on the family I think.
Liam Beamer each family had a saint and none of the la cosa Nostra family’s denounced god or the Virgin Mary
Anyone remember dominik montiglio.... Looks different every video....
Much respect to Mr. Franzese. I met him at a book signing a few years ago at the University I work at and it was an amazing lecture and a fascinating man. Very personable and eloquent man. My great-grandfather was in the bottling business in the 1920's and delivered bottles to Lucky Luciano, and some distant relatives were "connected" in the Jewish mob in NYC in the 1950s/60s in the trucking business.
Michael is so sincere and his voice is so moving. Such powerful testimony. I can feel from his voice that he had went through tremendous emotional journey. He is a living example of the "Godfather"
Micheal is the true OG of “that life” I love the severe truth he tells about it
Michael's stories are all unbelievable. This RUclips channel is one of the best things to come from 2020.
Him and Larry Lawton are fucking A1 content dude. Just recently found this guy from another channel that interviewed him.
Very true.
Try out Sammy The Bulls youtube channel! Doing amazing stories and awesome podcasts now
@@metalfacedeyedeas9760 he has crazy stories as well
@@seanmiller4559 True
It sounds like your friend lived on his own terms and died on his own terms...respect.
I feel for his family though and it would have been better to pack everyone up and move to another state
HamiltonRb bro the mob would have got to him regardless
annoying huh Not necessarily. Did they get to Michael or Gotti jr? Also there are all kinds of made guys and associates out there that put a lot of guys in jail that are walking around, not too concerned about getting hit.
@@HamiltonRb The 70's were a much different time for LCN. Look at how many families across the nation are now defunct.
HamiltonRb Yeah but those were main guys they brought in money unlike tony
I'm addicted to listening Michael talking. Amazing!
These stories are straight out of a movie. I’m glad Michael lived to tell his stories.
Same here. He's a good man. Very precious...
I’m so sorry about the loss of your friend, Tony. 💔🙏
Haven’t even watched it yet and already gave it a like. Fuhgetaboutit.
Same here!!!
Every damn time 👊🏽
You just know It’ll be good!
Fuhgetaboutit!
Haha me too! Did the same
I can listen to This man all day. 🙏🏼❤️
The life can be very dark & Michael describes some of that darkness he experienced or knows about yet he brings things to a lesson for us all to learn from & better our lives.
My grandma was friends with all those Italian mafia guys from working at Lennys clam bar in Howard beach Queens New York way back in the day . She said this Michael guy was a good kid back when she knew him.
Props to your grandmother.
@@QED_ thank you :)
🤔🤔🤔🤔
@@adrianruiti3508 spit it out
Did she say he was a standup dude?
I am truly a fan of this guy. Michael has my respect. He understands and accepts that that people have a fascination about the mafia or mob life. He is humble today, respects others of that time he talks about. He don't down, talk bad about, snitch, or disrespect, he just simply tells a story and answers questions. Great guy. He really got me thinking about his way to Christ. I can relate
Yeah man
Right and he done his time🤷🏾♂️!!
It’s so cool to hear these stories. Not just out of a book or movie but by someone who actually lived that life. Such interesting things.
As a self-proclaimed mob buff I love how you address shortfalls of the life and don't glorify it but keep it entertaining
I was born on February 6th. Dad died young I'm now older than he was when he passed. Great channel.
@Adrian Valladares didn't you watch the video?
@Adrian Valladares you must be blind or just plain stupid if you can't tell what it has to do with it
@Adrian Valladares also you misspelled hell you put he'll
The legendary story teller keeps giving us content. Thanks Mike
"You've been very loyal."
I don't know about you but I'm proud of it when said that. It gave me chills.
I cant tell you how much I enjoy listening to Michael's stories. Its honestly changed my outlook on life.
"Don't worry about it" is the italian version of a Indian head nod
forget about it
@@amanlala6266 *fougetaboutit*
🤣
More accurate than you think! We get really triggered when someone tell us "Non preoccuparti"..as it could sound a reassuring phrase, but it has a threatening shade as well
@@MoejiiOsmanTV bustin beans
I like the way Mr. Franzese carries himself
Hes a godly man now
Me 2
Great guy
Being a person of Faith changes you. Christ and CHRIST Alone Is The Answer.
Absolutely Leonel, i share your liking for Mr. Franzese 100%, I admire Mr Franzese in more ways than one, God Bless him for sharing his stories and all the positive works he is doing.. i just appreciate being a subscriber..
Thanks for sharing your story and I did get a stomach roll about your close friend taking his own life due to the fear of being taken into the room you spoke of. I like your moral to this story, Robby
This is one of the most badass YT channels out there
It sounds like you really loved your crew, Michael. Much respect.
Mike was in the minority (back then when the mob were ferocious, vicious and were constantly killing each other) in that he wasnt a sociopath. Hes a guy that couldve been the head of a big company due to his intellect. Of course he went the other way and rose to the point of practically amassing his own family as a powerful capo. I agree and believe the reason is that hes not a psycho or sociopath etc. Mikes my favorite former mob guy around.
Yall know as a capo he 100% either murdered or ordered murders throughout his mob career right? I can respect him for finding Jesus sure.
@@mr.rogers7612 it is what it is if he didn't make those orders he'd of been killed and that's all she wrote and somebody else would've just taken over his business and his capregime status. This was the late 70s early 80s before Giuliani & the RICO act really did a number on the mob in the late 80s
@@mr.rogers7612 ooooo in he bb hi b
@@mikimiyazaki B hi j
Black dude, born in Africa, raised in Sardinia Italy. Yep I have seen my share of mobs and gangsters. Funny enough, they always showed me love and never cared if I was black or whatever. I love this dude and his way of sharing his stories. I would love to meet him face to face and show the same love I got back in the day. I am a subscriber, are you? 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
I envy you being raised in Italy! Beautiful country and a beautiful language!
@@angelawhite3058 thanks 😊 currently living in the UK, but I do go back to visit my family every now and then.
@@TilleyOlsen
U must find the UK easy to live in.
@@drfeelgood5870 yeah because UK is multi cultural. Italians are still quite keen on their own people and habits, and also hardly accepts foreign cultures. The UK has a lot of multi cultural people living within it, although there are still people of Mafia caliber around, they don't really show themselves cause they only show themselves where the money goes. So yeah🙌🏾
@Auxiliary Stream Services
Really? You mean with human sacrifice, voodoo, open air slave markets etc. The british have alot to look forward to. Maybe they should just nuke the place to prevent it.
I love hearing the stories that Michael Franzese tells about the life in the Mafia and how they operated back in the 70's and 80's
It's interesting that former mafia mob can teach you about real life more than any school teacher.
This dude looks 45. Youngest looking 70 year old man ever.
No way this dude is 70 u lying
@@indianumberonecountry swear. His dad just died at 103.
@@jazzdiamond2917 thats insane. I heard italians in italy had long lifespans due to their diets and lifestyle so maybe that has something to do with it. “He has the aging secret DOCTORS DONT WANT YOU TO KNOW”
Wow I just started watching this guy and I would have guessed late 50’s.
@@garnetnard4284 shit late 40s. And just think that's after a lifetime of booze
I'm so sorry to hear about your dad. He lived SUCH a long life, one of the longest. It still doesn't take away the pain though.
His dad killed a dozen people
Michael I love your storytelling style and how you don’t need to drop curses every other word to have impact. You are a true talent at anything you do, whether mob, business, coaching- you are a fascinating guy!!!
Michael you can tell looks better than maybe 99.9% of most guys his age (got the good genetics as he mentioned before his father made it to 103) but the internal scars are immense, the mental anguish, the tension, suspicion, losing good friends, the close calls...you can see how much it changes you and gives you a perspective on life few others have. Maybe only soldiers who have seen the worst of combat can come close.
Can’t wait for mob movie Monday
Last time I was this early Joe Pesci was still shining shoes
You think that's funny? Like he's a clown, he amuses you?
Didn't ya hear? Pesci dont shine shoes no more. You been gone long time so I dont know if you you though. Pesci dont shine shoes anymore.
How many times I gotta tell youse: I don't shine shoes no more!!! Hahaha
Hey I'm just breakin balls don't get too big on me ya prick ya.
Tommy should have gone home and gotten his fucking shinebox like Billy told him.
I love hearing old stories and also love the positivity on the channel.
Michael, the more I watch the more amazed I am. You are so blessed in so many ways. God Bless you, and be safe always...
Thats a genuinely heart wrenching story
I’m becoming addicted to hearing this guy talk about the life. He seems like the only no bullshit man out here talking about these things.
Hes telling us his own personal stories so it's got a Lotta truth to it
Ya getting down to brass tax sin sends you to hell
Please listen to his coming to Jesus testimony.
Sammy the bull is great also
@T R what are you talking about?
For a former mafia guy, this man is very well put together, educated, well-spoken and these stories are cool.
Facelift?
I love re-watching your videos! They are gold! Please upload more content on strategies/business/negotiation!
Michael what you said at the end applies to me this time - “When you agree to play by the rules, you play by the rules or there could be serious consequences at can affect your life”. Just want you to know that these messages reach people.
I work as a civilian employee in a state prison complex. This is what my employer expects of us. I try to keep on the straight and narrow, but there are numerous gray areas and loopholes, lol. No, nothing like smuggling in major contraband, but along the lines of letting an inmate keep a golf pencil than can no longer be sharpened (they use them for art purposes, but they can purchase new ones from the commissary so it is not something they can't own).
Don't make vows you can't keep.
Mike tells his stories just like Sammy. He has a great memory to. I could listen to Mike and Sammy talk all day and night.
Now you know why these guys can run things .very well spoken and 20 steps ahead like a chess player .
Getting to hear these stories are simply simply amazing.
The pain of loss so evident its in his eyes...
These Mob stories are overwhelmingly striking..
I can listen to this guy talk everyday of the week!
💯
Me too ♥️♥️
What about weekends?
Such a well rounded speaker I love listening to him speak.
Michael is legitimately one of the nicest people out there. Thank you for all you do my friend. God bless.
I knew a leg breaker when I was younger & knew his boss too, we all got along. So, one day, I asked this leg breaker if his boss would send him after me, would he do it. He said, if I do not, someone will come after both of us. It's not a life of getting to choose what you can or cannot do.
That’s the nicest way of saying “fuck yeah id break your legs. Make you cry too”
Scary.
I've been watching videos with Michael in recently. And I have come to the conclusion that this man's wisdom is on another level. I couldn't imagine walking a mile in his shoes. Much respect to this man.
Could never get enough of your stories Michael, very humbling
Love that Michael is always straight forward with us, keeping it real and no bs. Keep it up boss
The phrase "Drug Kills" in Mob applies differently. It is not the drugs that will kill you (overdose, addiction, etc), rather it is another made guy who kills you because of drug 😲
@Fab StillSmokin any data or facts to back it up?
@@USA6160 that’s just how it is lol. But I’m sure a lot of guys did coke here and there but if you were known at all as a junkie you were dead too
PrinceOfTheCity1 yep I'm apart of the Dixie mafia we don't kill only if circumstances came to it especially if a person is on drugs screwing up and becoming a danger to our business. Because if your on drugs the government will pinch you and you will definitely turn on us. No one likes a traitor even your own country will kill you lol.
PrinceOfTheCity1 like you probably don't believe me or don't know what the Dixie mafia is because we are not as big as the Italian mafia but back when the Atlanta mafia was alive we supplied them with moonshine and guns or drugs. The Dixie mafia has only been mentioned once but they painted us as racist assholes in mafia 3 video game and that we were murderes but we took the John Gotti root and didn't harm civilians. We also don't have the Same hierarchy as the Italian mafia its more of if you make the most money and supply the most business your the boss but we want that to change.but yah drugs now we try doing stuff helping communities now like protecting locals from robbery and other gang violence.
PrinceOfTheCity1 also another thing is the only big murder that happened was a judge decades ago and it was horrible because the Dixie mafia is southern nationalists unlike the Italian mafia we don't kill our own people in the south.
I cant get enough of his stories.
The stories from your experiences carry great lessons. I appreciate you sharing your experiences.
I stumbled across Michael on Mike Tysons podcast and have been hooked ever since!! Such a positive guy. I love all of the content!
Me too
Michael, you're wonderful and straightforward when you narrate your stories. Thank God you're of that underworld and now you're advising people what is the right way to live. I enjoy your shows. Keep up the good work.
I love hearing all these stories...I've bought 2 of his books and absolutely LOVED them...
If you haven't Read his books you are missing out
Always informative and entertaining especially spiritually! Thank you from one Mike to another.
Love the water balloon story but so sad the way it ended for your friend. I truly hope he made his peace with Christ. God bless Micheal🙏🏼✝️
Just found your channel and am now hooked! Your words of wisdom are not always what I want to hear but I have needed to hear. Thank you for making a difference in this strangers life.
That’s crazy because in the movies they do make it look like it’s a lavish lifestyle but no one thinks of the consequences.
Truly enjoy how Michael Franzese shares his history with us all.
Fantastic stories, a wealth of insite & knowledge. We met years ago when you spoke at my church. Much respect 🙏. My dad is 95, in good health, still drives & runs around. I'll be blessed if he lives to 103 as your dad had.
May Sonny Franzese and Arnold Spielberg Rest In Peace (2/6/1917-2020)
It’s crazy 1917 that’s so long ago r.i.p
They both weren’t born on the same day in the same year you know.
Ste Roe Michael Franzese literally says that they were. Check in google, both r born February 6, 1917
I saw ' The Godfather ' in 1972 when I was eleven and I admit the Mob Life has intrigued me ever since. I have a large book and film collection covering every aspect Mob Life including the history of the Mafia going back to Sicily and my own city of New Orleans where there was a war between the Matranga and Provenzano families for control of the docks. But the grim realty and the destruction of families as Michael described shows the ' true face ' . Thank you Michael again for a gripping heart felt look into that stark, grim life . . . still it's fascinating.
This is how I keep myself entertained, Michael is a fantastic speaker.
Love hearing these stories, could listen for hours at a time!
I remember that line from "Gotti" movie well. Carlo's line, "you deal...you DIEEE!"
One of the biggest hypocrisies in the life. EVERY boss made drug money. They pretended to not wanna know where it came from, until caught, and then someone was scapegoated
You an amazing man ! I love hearing you’re stories it so different ! Glad you stopped and had someone to get you through it all ! Much respect to you and ur family !
Mental issues are the hardest to get away from.... ive been there myself. Thanks for the story.
Thank you for your videos, Mr. Franzese. I've learned much from your insights and I'm glad I discovered your channel. -Manuel
Hearing these stories about life in the mafia is truly unbelievable! Glad I was recommended this channel by RUclips
Mr. Franzese, this was such a tragic story about your close friend Tony, and I send my condolences to his family. May he Rest In Peace. Thank you for sharing this. 😔
So glad I discovered this channel through the Infographics Show. Michael Franzese's life was featured in one of their videos, and since then, this channel is one of my staples whenever I'm working.
Pure genius! I hope Michael never stops! We love him!
"Whats the moral of that?... I don't Know" 😂
I believe everyone watching and listening to your stories believes you 100% and that's why the view's and the subscribers on your channel keep on growing!!! You're the best!!!
Love hearing your stories. Articulate and as real as they come. Much respect to you my brother.
Just love the way you share your life experience to help others!
Was really interesting hearing about Allie Boy Persico
hey master
So your the reason why this is in my mentions 😂😂
Loot from 24 hours of mob hits.
fancy seeing u here
Lol I see you here and in Jim can't Swim's comments. Don't tell me we watch the same porn too.
Most profound thing you said...”you can’t be a Christian and a member of the mob...”
Unless your name is Christian :)
I'm enjoying these videos. Like so many others, I've long been fascinated with this stuff, and I'll probably spend all weekend watching the videos and learning.
God bless you, Michael
Michael, you're channel is the best thing going on RUclips! I can watch these every day of my life
Wow 10 minutes and more than a 1000 views already. Michael Franzese rocking RUclips 👏❤️💪🏻
Although you say it wasn't one incident that made you leave, I remember seeing you on TV and saying when you met your wife you knew then you were going to leave. Also being a college educated young man you could see the writing on the wall and you knew it was time. You were ready to be fair to your wife and kids. Love you and god bless you. Also I think you went to Hofstra with a family friend that became a prominent doctor in the New York area.
Great story...great lesson...great moral. This message can reach a broad audience...people who normally don't respect "advice". Thank you.
Great story. Hard when a friend or family member gets in trouble and you can't help.
Contest is sending me back to videos I’ve seen before yet I’m watching again. These sit downs are captivating!
Hi Mr Franzese once I saw this pop up on my notification jumped right on. I been watching you on these mafia show back when you did the 10 commandments of the mafia on discovery channel. I love your channel now I have it all the time.
Could listen to you for hours,did you ever know or have any interactions with the Westies ?
Michael, I have so much respect for you after watching some of your videos. I'm from rural Ireland, and in my 20's and can't say I can relate to your life. The way you were able to leave that lifestyle, leave that money, all the time, a bounty on your head. Also, you're a great storyteller! Best wishes from Éire 🇮🇪
It’s always great to hear your past life stories.
This man is a National Treasure. He had the courage to leave that life, and even more courage to talk about it openly and change his ways and find Faith.
Many great lessons can be learned from this man. Cheers to you 👍.
