Who has only been to this channel twice because of Michael? 🖐️
Same
Same here bro
Ignorance at it's finest lol
With this amount of ads it won’t be a third time
Same
We need Michael Franzese on the Joe Rogan's podcast.
The church of what's happening now would be better
I thought this too.
No
@Rafael goddamn you beat me to it
Why... he has done so many interviews already you won't hear anything new
Michael Franceze: "I have a temper."
Looks like the calmest, chill dude ever lol.
Those are usually the most dangerous ones
The guy is like 70 now
His temper was'nt challenged. He just gives smart interviews and became a wise man. disrespect him seriously and you will see how he reacts, even at that age.
That's an Italian thing. I'll cool as a cucumber but once my Sicilian blood starts boiling, look out ... Guys to be afraid of (I'm not one of em) are the ones that don't say they're gonna come get you. They don't talk, they just do ... Michael is one of those guys.
@@seansense I'd bet all my marbles those guys weren't around much longer after that. If someone did that to my sister I would 100% have a serious decision on my hands, and I'm an average Joe. I don't think it matters that I'm Sicilian (American), I think a lot of people would think that way. But someone like Michael? Probably would wow us how he handled it.
And your little dog theory is perfect. Being loud is usually a defense mechanism the weak use to scare off potential threats. The strong don't need to use it.
Talking about the things he did with his sister’s drug dealers/abusers was too real. “I did some tough things.... I did some rough things.” You know those guys left this realm screaming.
He should start a podcast. I'd listen to this guy read the phone book.
Not_Reqd
That hilarious 😂
Your a fucking idiot!
He’s ultra Christian so I’m not listening to shit he has to say.
bobby wright He may be but all people are interested in is his mob stories and he’s got thousands of them no doubt
He should. He has a unique perspective of this subject.
He maintains the same facial expressions no matter what he’s talking about. It’s scary how controlled & composed he is.
...yeah. ...like Putin. Never changes his expression. Must be KGB trained?🤔
Normal behavior
@@kirklandsewell3776 If we still had a large Cosa Nostra influence there would be no threat from Putin and Trump
@@sds5502 at least he didn't sell uranium to Russia
Like the fox leaving the hen house
This guy is telling him fascinating things and he just responds with “okay”
okay
Okay
Vahe T. Well it is vlad 😂😂😂
Vlads a simpleton
oOBombaclackOo oh shut the fuck up
He doesn't brag or boast. He tells it like it is. He reveals but he knows when not to reveal. He is totally believable and respectful and honest and that's why I love his stories.
HE IS HONEST WHEN HE SAYS “ ILL BE HONEST WITH YOU”. BUT WHAT SBOUT THE OTHER TIMES. SUCH A COMPULSIVE LIER.
Most actual "Gangsters" don't brag and boast. A real gangster moves in silence and keeps his fuckin mouth shut. Ppl bragging and boasting has been the death and the arrest of many dudes.
@@GoldBlumsRUclipsProductReviews explain what a lier is
Teacher: hey Michael can you tell the class what 2 + 2 is?
Michael: Well look....
Well , look, you know.....
I’m gonna be honest wit ya, vlad
@@soir910 this one too , you know 😂
Michael : I cant give you a straight answer for that but look at this ....
" Look Vlad, my family got devastated due to my father's involvement in that life . Not hurt I mean devastated "
A true "wiseguy"(with respect). He only answers what he wants, uses logic, and you can't tell if he's lying. All this, while being smooth and diplomatic. Movies are based on guys like this. Good interview. SALUTE!
BADABING.
He knows how to give a good answer while also not admitting to anything he wasn’t already caught for
@@ethancooper1560 Absolutely!
@Steve N I knew someone was gonna say this, rappers are not the black equivalent of wise guys!
True wiseguy = a snitch
You can tell this guy was a real wiseguy by how he answers questions..not too direct with the deep stuff but says enough to make you understand what he doesn't want to say.
Exactly right
Look at this man's background and look how he's turned out! An absolute gentleman,I really respect this man I don't listen to any gossip on people like Michael I listen to the man himself. He tells it like it is no bullshit with him! He's a credit to his family and I'm sure he's dad is looking down extremely proud of what he's become! Great interview Vlad of a great Man.
*The Legendary Michael "Well Look" Franzese*
😫😩😅😂😭😭
Dayyyum
AKA Michael "You Know" Franzese
Rather get busted by 5-0 then be a bust like u
Rather listen to “well look” rather than “like...like...like” every sentence like some bitches talk
Anthony Bennett #antibeast
The only time this guy breaks his stone cold face and has a big smile is when he talks about that Helicopter. He must have really LOVED that thing haha
Lol
He has a sparkle in his eyes when he talked about it
U hate your life don't you
Wow.... 🤯
He smiled and chuckled 5 times within 8 minutes of this video though lol?
FINALLY WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THE FULL VERSION FOR WEEKS.
I mean, is there anything new in the full interview that wasn't already shown in the clips?
@@bigdc202 No, but I only caught like half of the clips because I hate watching it piece by piece.
Facts
@@xGregglesx Same here. But imo its really smart for vlad to do it the way he does. I bet he makes 3-5 times more money doing it piece by piece than all at once. Its actually pretty brilliant. Logically if he averages 500k per video for 10 videos or if he did it all in one video he would only get that one 500k video.
Chris Watson I beg to differ..although he cut up the whole interview those bits are only gonna get 150-250k a piece. I bet the full interview will barely crack 1.5 mil. As opposed to his previous interview where he didn’t cut as much and the full video is already over 2 mil since April
Threw me for a loop when they mentioned Kobe and his helicopter. RIP Kobe.
I was thinking the same. Michael mentioned a helicopter being a great tool for Kobe. I instantly figured they have no idea what's to come and without looking I knew this interview had to be atleast a certain amount of time ago. but like he said: I'm sure the helicopter was a great asset up until that point.
Same here
Yeah I definitely did a double take there, had to check the comments see anyone else heard that
WOW.....
@UCVRSA7bW6dy-ZixFrs7exbw yeah you’re definitely a troll piece of shit
I feel like I owe Franzese money after watching this.
As 50 wud say then... Get the strap
This - Best comment ever!
He wants your money by monday!
🤣🤣
@@thunder5843 I paid him sunday!
This guy always sounds believable and doesn't brag. Makes him likable.
Thats why i enjoy his interviews, he talks matter of fact but not in a way that makes him sound cold or as if he doesn't regret it. Also when he talks about the ugly stuff he did he doesn't come off cruel or proud of it like other mobsters do. He says things in a way that doesnt leave room to be misconstrued.
@@johannarollery9694 Yes he seems very credible and doesn't pause before answering to make himself appear anything other than what we see. Its usually easier to spot liars than what I have seen in the many interviews Michael has given, I believe he has a good heart and has spent many years correcting any of the things he may or may not have done in the past.
He's a businessman. He knows in order to make money you HAVE to be likeable. Looking people in the eye while your talking, not blinking alot and answering fast answers without hesitation can turn any lie into fact, boom, like that! Just remember that when he's found out to be a swindler again.
I 38 in ssw2.....jhjjj?..?sßssss$s$t5
W p
Agreed . You can tell hes telling the truth theres no question
I stopped at this channel because I saw that the subject was Mob related. As a child I listened to my grandparents and my mom whisper stories about the Mob on our street and the atrocities they had committed. These stories never were repeated outside our home.
This is the second interview on this channel with Michael Franzese that I am listening too. I decided to subscribe. Mr. Franzese’ style is smooth he tells much without giving away the farm!
Bravo !
Smart family.
My mother, Norma Claypool, adopted all of us. To me, she was my mother. I found a guy who could be like a father to me and even though he getting adopted me, I still view him with the respect and love I would give to a father. My mother is dead, but this gentleman is still around and I’m glad to have them in my life.
It doesn’t matter who your father is or your mother is it matters who fills those roles for you.
It absolutely does.. some of us still put a lot of stock in bloodlines
“Think Kobe has a helicopter”, “helicopter be a great tool for Kobe”.....yep well that’s awkward now
Yup
Nah it was a freak accident. He didn't know it was coming.
Visor Down see u my friend can’t spot a slightly sarcastic joke lol
@@grayson7677 Your mom can't spot a slightly sarcastic joke.
It was strange hearing them talk about that.
This Wikipedia deal is killing me. What interviewer does that?
Michael Franzese is one of my favorite people hands down.
Same here. I respect the hell outta this man. Hes definitely a goodfella.
He should give workshops for young Men on how to be a Father + Husband.
We need an old school fella teaching us how to live in the age of Feminism.
I say this in all sincerity.
@@etherealcatholic5711 well. Send these disgusting feminists to go fuck themselves...
Greg Scarpa was the man's man
HeitorD 👍
Michael always composes himself well in interviews. Could listen to him for hours.
Yup. I have so much respect for this man
@Nick Phillips False. He chose the right path.
I always find myself doubting a lot of the dudes that Vlad interviews.. I Feel like most times they talk themselves up for a better interview.. With that being said if you’ve watched other Michael Franzese interviews he doesn’t do that tho and his story never changes... He only answers on things he knows or has heard personally, he doesn’t dry snitch on anybody and when he gives his opinion on something (that may go against your own) he seems to be respectful and open minded.. If you a real one it don’t take long realize he ain’t selling wolf tickets 💯!!
Yeah. He's being as frank and honest as he can be. Very clever guy, and he doesn't need to talk himself up to anyone.
Nick Mason that you brother?
Mr.Franzese is the real original Mafia.He is a classy truthful Person.
all the other mafia folks in those youtube interviews talk like they need to prove themselves, Michael doesnt. he is just himself and answering questions. thats why i like his interviews the most. you can tell he isnt there to show off but teach people a lesson.
NewsOracle I agree
The gas scam was sheer brilliance
Yep and unlike most mob hustles everybody benefited from it.
XmenMagnetoAcolytes yeah and gas pipe ended up in prison for life because he was a greedy psychopath.
I got a few going myself... easy money!!
@XmenMagnetoAcolytes This was a Russian Scam first...Italian mobsters wanted a piece!!!
It's gaspipes scam Michael is a pussy 😎🤘
Michael looks amazing for 68, but just like the old saying “black don’t crack” we got “olive oil don’t spoil” we age well ❤️
"Olive oil, don't spoil"...I love it🍷
L
Meghan Servidio Italians have good culture and age very well 😊
Meghan Servidio is eeeeeeesh GOTEEEEEM! Olive oil don’t spoil!
Same here with the Greeks 👍🏼💯
The mention of Kobe and his helicopter 🚁 😢 🙏 RIP
The things this Man has seen and been through could be a real life horror movie, with some light at the end of the tunnel so to speak. He comes across as raw but real and respectfully intense , if that makes sense.
Old timers like him are still alive because they are smart and loyal, without loyalty you cant be a man of your word and you wouldnt be here to speak.
It just goes to show why this man is still standing, regardless of the negative persona he has, he was still someones father , husband, brother, son and so on and im sure he is leading a somewhat normal and positive life now.
He comes across as strong but firm and fair, smart, respectful and honest but can be brutal if he has to be!
He does not look 68yo
I am stunned
My pops is his age and I hate to say my dad doesn't look as healthy or as youthful as this guy. I wish my pops looks this way at his age.
He does in others interviews without make up
Moon Child ruclips.net/video/qyZphhbDyBM/видео.html
Moon Child that’s cuz he has money. Being broke is the worse thing ever.
You joking right this guy's had more plastic surgery than Phyllis Diller got fake dyed hair and facelifts nobody's not blind that you can't see that are you joking plus he's never done a day of work in his life
Anyone else get chills when they mentioned kobe and his helicopter?
Had to find this comment because I knew someone else felt it.
Yes!!!
No
No.
No
1:11:08 a helicopter would be a great tool for Kobe... I am absolutely speechless. So crazy and random that he said that. R.I.P. Kobe
I thought the same
My first thought was fuck this didnt age well
A month prior also
Wow.....
Why? They’re both celebrities and might know each other.
Over 60 and still handsome. I could listen to him speak all day!
@Jimmy Two Times ok 70 and still handsome;-)
Bruh!
@Marcus Aurelius because I gave someone a NICE comment? Apparently YOU are the one with issues.
You look crazy ash
@@Avogadros_number WTF is ash
I don’t understand how he’s so calm, whenever he’s telling a story doesn’t even curse, very professional. If it was me I’d use curse words and what not, this guy was meant to be a made man. Good thing he was never killed either these interviews are amazing, although he’s never gonna say it but I’d Love to hear the brutal things he did lol.
What separates this guy from many others is he has a really good head on his shoulders. He can be successful in anything he puts his mind to, and it was only by chance that it started in the mob.
Well funny u say that he owns a Pizza chain now. And I reckon it is doing really well.
He was in med school before he decided to be a mobster or something right?
If you pay attencion you ll notice that anything he admits to or says he has done or had a hand in is something all ready paid for or beyond the stat of limitations
@@ianleary6452 pay attention to spelling.
I just love how intelligent Michael is! He knows how to relate stories without incriminating himself. He doesn't dodge questions but only goes so far in telling things. He knows the law is really pissed that he's the only one they couldn't put him away for life like the rest! One incriminating statement and they would put the cuffs on! His dad schooled him well! Also the reason the mob didn't put a hit on him is he never informed on any of them! I really admire his work in trying to turn kids away from crime! He has really turned his life around. I think he never would've gotten into the life, if it wasn't for his father.
Michael is a great talker, so absolutely perfect for any interview or even his own show.
Can see how he made it so well in the Mob, prison and then his legit life as has a true salesmanship aura about him....
Really enjoy this guy he comes to my church once a year great speaker & stories
I can't imagine Michael showing up at my church, that'd be wild
Amen!
Mikey went through good and very bad times but he is now a part of my Christian family I am proud to see someone strong of heart to give these interviews thank you brother Michael.
Do you believe in Father Christmas and tooth fairy’s aswell hahaha the biggest ever told god !!!!
There is no way that Sonny is not Michael's biological Father. Michael looks just like his Father. I love this interview. A+.
Maury would have gotten the answer
He starts freely talking about Hoffa and Vlad just skips past it...come on man....
Not Vlad's best interview. I mean, he didn't even do his research beforehand and had to resort to Wikipedia. Very disrespectful, and I anticipate Micheal wasn't too pleased.
RIGHT!?!?
He sucks at interviews
Surprised the interviewer had not seen "The Irishman" yet. Way to do your Homework. Lol.
Interesting too that he said "the Irishman" movie was not accurate.
This man is the the definition of an OG.
Peter Parker 300 people under him and ready to do what he wants them to. There’s this quote I read somewhere and I know these aren’t the exact words it says like this “you can only consider yourself a rich man if you own an army”
And he cooperated against people....but I think that the guy got off in court though, so nobody got prison time because of him
Brother Michael is blessing to people who come out of a life of crime. May the Lord protect him and fill him with the Holy Spirit and wisdom of the Gospel
Mike Franzese is now a Christian but I could see him losing it when he was in the life. His eyes are like steel. He’s the real deal. He tells it like it is. I think he’s awesome.
He’s extremely intelligent. How many people can speak so clearly and tell a story better than Michael?
Gianno Russo is even better
Although his dad was "Sonny Franzese", Michael was never going to go into a life of crime. He was actually in pre-med and going to be a doctor. When his dad got pinched, he asked Michael to step up and take control of the family. Because of his love for his father, he did.
A lot
@@deanrichardson7725, Russo is full of shit
@@TheRelger no you are you absolute imbecile
This man is so interesting. Can listen to his stories for hours.
Me too
As a guy, I can only pray my hair looks like Michael’s at 68 years old.
🤣🤣🤣 me too..and not just hair, on his face you cannot tell that he is 6 freaking 8!
shut up puzzy just get hair transplants like he did puzzy
Space Worm shut up virgin worm
Space Worm Wiesel got nothing to say now. U little bug. I’d squash u
@@peterbarbera your responses literally made me lol. 1. I have a daughter. 2. It's possible, but that's why I always carry an equalizer. 3. I plan on getting a hair job in the not-so-distant future, so I'm not hating. Look good feel good right?
I love watching this guy talk. I second Vlad's words at the end. I'm glad he got himself away from the violence.
He ratted bro lol....well like halfway ratted, but that got a 15 or 20 yr sentence dropped down to under 10, AND his millions in restitution for the gas scam just disappeared.
He owed MILLIONS, paid like 500 or 750k, and he was allowed to stop paying it😅
Sorry but to save a 8-figure pile of money, I'd snitch on my own mama😅
He seemed like a really cool guy, UNTIL he described telling athletes how to shave points. The way he leaned forward, & was like, 'You'll do this until I tell you not to", I was like, "DAAAAAYUMM...I would NOT want to be the player he told that to!" This guy, is fascinating AF!
Tee Oh 😂😂👍
Mine was, "Bring me my money!"
Having gotten used to Franzese being classy on multiple interviews, that was the point when I was like, "This man is gangsta!"
@@aabidamn 🤣🤣🤣 For real!
Michael is incredibly composed and disciplined, in the fact that he can go from nice to scary with a flick of a switch. This man is respectable but he still has big gangsta in him, and it still has that threatening aura around him, even though he doesn't need it anymore.
Is that any different from the actions of the government when someone steals money?
Franzese is genuinely still upset about those chickens.
😂😂
😂😂😂😬
sounds like a Sopranos episode.
Haha yea you can tell
2 mob fams had to meet up over “a couple hundred dollars worth of chickens” 😂
Mikey Francese is the real deal. No nonsense, straight shooter. Respect, from Ireland.
You sound cringey as fuck bruh
@@5edzstr916 You sound like a tosser bruh 👍
It’s erie listening to them talk about Kobe and his helicopter now.
WOW..... !!!!!!
First comment I wanted to make when he said it. R.I.P Kobe
I love every time when he says “when I got straightened out.”😆 And, he never skips a beat 🤣
Franzese operated I’m my sphere of business...he took a lot of money out of the pockets of legit businesses who had to compete with his network.....but when the smoke cleared, he emerged a compelling speaker with a steady handle. His stories ring true. His history is consistent; he never trips over his narrative. There are some questions he politely sidesteps. He s doesn’t pander to dweebie interviewers who think it makes them cool talking to a real gangster. He s become a good cultural historian .........who might have a very very big lumpy mattress
I love how this dude answers without really incriminating smooth asl
Man, that ‘Kobe has a helicopter’ comment was gut-wrenching in hindsight.
this is by far my most favorite interview of anyone that had anything to do with the American mob and that's because of Michael's' integrity. I've worked in healthcare for most all of my life and in particular with substance abuse individuals. I consider myself extremely intuitive. This man is telling it as he see's it and no BS.
My grandmother dated Sonny back when she was a teenager in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
I love listening to Michael’s stories.
RIP, Sonny
Are you serious lol she has stories
michael chiappetta
I’m dead serious. I’m sure she had a lot of stories, but would never share a word. She had a code. She worked at Greenpoint Casket company for many years and surely had many stories to tell from there as well. She fed many a gangster at her home as well.. But if you’d ask her anything she’d just smile and say “ohh of course, I know things”.. but she’d just turn around and go back to her cooking.
My dad (her son) also worked at a well known club in Williamsburg with these guys. But he too won’t speak much of it.
I’m actually visiting with him as I type.. he’s dying of cancer 😔. We’ve been talking about the old days in Brooklyn and some of the guys he used to run with, but he’s too medicated to talk too much. He knew Michael back in the day. I don’t know if Michael would remember him or not.
Quick story..
I grew up in Queens.. (parents divorced)..
One day in the mid 80’s my best friend’s boyfriend showed up at my door threatening me with a gun (looking for her)...I wasn’t worried, but my mother let Dad know something guy threatened me with a gun.. Well... within 2 hours, my dad and 3 or 4 carloads of wise guys in Cadillacs show up to my house, pick me up and ask me where to find the guy. I’m like... “I don’t know”.. Dad looks at me like “yeah right”..
Well, off we go to the local schoolyard where this guy was with about 25-30 of his friends. Dad and his friends were clearly outnumbered and I was terrified.
Dad and ONE GUY... got out, walked straight through the crowd.... found “Richie”...
I never found out what was said or done that evening, but I can tell you this- “Richie” showed up at my house a week later and apologized to my mother and I ... and my neighborhood treated me with a whole new level of respect 😂😂
NO ONE EVER as much as blinked at me wrong again.
The end ☺️
@@JenKelly that's very interesting!! My classmate's grandmother used to date Donald Trump in the 70's. They met in a club in New York but then she broke up ans called him a jerk. Her reasoning was that he had "weird opinions".
Question Authority he learned his lesson haha, get as much info from him as you can! Wish him the best
@@michaelchiappetta3453 shes taking you for a fool lmfao
You can hear the gangster come out when he starts talking about the athletes gambling
01:13:55 "Bring me my money!"
Having gotten used to Franzese being classy and all that, that was the point when I was like, "This man is gangsta!"
I didn't owe him anything but I feel like I'm going to give all my money anyway.
yeah he kinda transformed back to what he used to do. cool
Loves the way this guy handles conversation, you got your work cut out for you interviewing him. know your shit and don't ask stupid questions Vlad!!!
He needs a movie about his life! Love listening to him speak.
Michael is a class act! I loved his other “shoot interview” with a different interviewer. I never heard of vlad but he sounds like a high school Sr asking questions for a school news paper.
100 % class act
Lmao he sucks that interviewer
What shoot interview? Can you give us a link?
Can Joe Rogan bring this guy in for an interview :D
hope so that’d be epic
Fuck Joe Rogan. He’d probably say he knew some mafia guys. He’s a tool bag
@@mancaveandgaragedesignsrec1492 And Joey Diaz will tell fake ass stories trying to compare to an actual gangster.
NO WAY , ROGAN IS GARBAGE BUCKET.
No because this guy hates weed
'You learned the two most important things in life. Never rat on your friends....and always keep your mouth shut'. Franzese lives it. Proper old-school wiseguy.
How did Vlad not follow up with a question about how Michael knew Frank was lying about killing Hoffa? Why did he just pivot like that?
There must be a good reason
Whitts Journey cuz he hasn’t seen the movie
Blair Patterson yeah. He doesn’t know what he’s doing
Because they talked about it in the first interview. "Hoffa is buried somewhere wet"
I like how Michael answers the questions. Well organized and respectful.
Guy killed 16 Chechen rebels. Single handed. Guy was an interior decorator....
"... his house looked like shit."
😂😂😂
“Mix it with the relishhhh” 😂💀😂
Yeah but it's house look like shit
Actually didn't he say to Paulie he killed 16 czechoslovakians anyways with the interior Ministry
"I did some tough things as a result of that."
Spoken like a man who's been bugged by the feds for most of his life.
He whacked em

@@dantelane2020 Ohhhh boy another RUclips gangster. Ppl laugh at ppl like you do you realize that?
He sounds so humble and smart especially from where he's come from. Great guy. Great convo
Update: RIP to your sister. I also have a sister dead from an Overdose and it hurts.
One of the best interviews I ever heard. Michael did a better explanation of the Prince than my university Professor.
This guy is so cool and collective he would play Liam Neeson in a movie not the other way around
He’s the only gangsta that I could understand how he sleeps well at night! When it’s all said and done. And he’s kinda a class act! I enjoy his interviews!
He is literally mob royalty. Epitome of a refined wise guy.
Vlad you have to research your guests more before you interview them. Going on Wikipedia mid interview makes you look silly and does a disservice to your guests. Now go get your shine box
Vlad is a thirsty click bait clown.. I love some of his interviews...I think some of the guests are respectful that Vlad is Vlad...he has followers..period, but do better research when you interview.. I was sitting here yelling "Nicky Barnes!"....almost like he wasn't listening to Michael's response..comes back as says.." It was Nicky Barnes" that I was thinking of...LOL...clown
I agree with you guys!! Mind you, this is the SECOND TIME he had Michael on the show!!! Like c'mon man!! 😄😄😄
But Vlad is coo shit though 😄🤙
@@woodruffv76 i guess may be Michael already instructed Vlad before the interview on where to go and where not to go with the interview. Trust me, thr was definitely some discussions over what can be discussed and what cannot be discussed. Michael has all this information in his head, he walks on a very thin rope when doing interviews abt his past life. Any confidential information tht he leaks cud mean the end of his life or someone else's.
Pat Powell 🥳
In this case doesn't really make him look silly. He got Micheal to state if the information was true or false. Obviously it was stop on, but it was inferred to.
I really like him, I’m drawn to mob books, movies and documentaries but I really enjoy his interviews.
I’m a fan of you too VLad❤️
He’s so good looking. Look him up in the 80’s. He had long hair & wore cool as hell clothes. Made more money than most mob guys. Smart dude.
I can ASSURE you that he can get more women now than in the 80s.
He looked like a need back then.
Now he actually looks like a mobster lol and being in prison made him the tuff guy that he never was.
LMFAO, I like how Vlad tries to tell a Mob guy about mob business.
Oh I'm so glad to get this as a Christmas present! I've anticipated the full interview for weeks and it's here, I'm very happy for Mr. Franzese he seems to have legitimately moved on and has a wealth of knowledge on the mob too.
*I respect the hell out of this man, hes definitely a goodfella*
His name pops up in the movie. Bar scene....early on.
Michael Murray “YEAHGUY I WANNA SEE HIM” LOO
@@jpocksmma1
"Hey Henry. I took care of that thing for ya"
A wise guy
He's not a rat. In other interview with Vlad he explains what rat to them means.
You can see in Michael's eyes that when vlad is asking a question, he's 3 steps ahead.
Not really !!! Michael brings up the Appalachia meeting and VLAD had to look it up. How you going to interview an ex mafia capo and not even know about the mafias historic history ???
Ok first of all, this interview is amazing, best person Viad has interviewed. However, I am SHOOK that this man is 68 YEARS OLD!!!!?????
“I think Kobe Bryant has a helicopter.” I about jumped out of my chair.
Why? Its been well known for years that Kobe often traveled by helicopter.
Countkwarr yeah he’s been riding helicopters daily for years
had*
Do you happen to know the time stamp of that exchange? I can't find it again.
@@MichaelFougere 1:10:53
I find it crazy that the interviewer is basically arguing with Michael about what took place, and what the mob was actually involved in or not. Just because you saw a few mob movies doesn't make you an expert.
He does that in all of his videos
CJ literally
Drih Lord it’s so frustrating to watch, he thinks the interview is about him.
I like his interviews
You obviously don't know VLAD. This guy is the epitome of an armchair QB talking about life from the comfort of his suburban living room.
Michael is very articulate and appears very truthful I’m really in joying the interview!!😀
VLAD, good interview, however, it's a little annoying to keep hearing you repeatedly refer to the MOB as the Mafia when he went to great lengths to explain to you the Mafia is the Italian organization. He kept correcting you without correcting you.
Just an observation, I hope it helps.
Well look...Franzese is always a great interview...even if I've heard all of his stories ten times already. I tune in for that one I haven't heard yet. This is one mob guy who definitely would have probably been successful in anything he did in the legit world.
This is the best interview I’ve seen on so many levels.
Michael is pure class.
Thank You
Watch the first one, even better.
Dean Fox Watch Patrick Bet David's interview of Michael
If it is, it is in spite of the interviewer. I can't speak to other interviews he has done, but this one is less than impressive.
Takes after his pops class ..when i met his dad 2005 i said to myself what a great human bein.loved him
This guy has had divine intervention. He came through the fire. Hollywood producers would be wise to make a movie on this autobiography.
Vlad "I never prepare for an interview and don't know who the hell I'm talking to" TV
It's that obvious isn't it
That Vlad doesn't know who Castellano is when he is so integral to Gotti's story is pretty mindblowing.
Im surprised he didn't mix this guys story up with that of Sammy the Bull or any other mobster. I was waiting for, "no Vlad, wrong person, that was 'so and so' not my story, wrong person"
I’m from Malta, an island just south of Sicily and I can assure you that even in Italy and Sicily it is known as La Cosa Nostra. It means “our thing” which is also like saying “our family.” The mafia on this side of the pond is much worse and much more strict than the mafia you have in America and the one in Italy, Sicily and Eastern Europe still goes strong to this day.
He looks great for 68. He's gonna live to be 100.
Probably. His pops lived to 103
Definitely 100. He looks in his 50s
While in my profession have seen the worse and best in criminals am always glad to see his interviews. Mr. Franzese has made the best of his life since his quitting the Mob and as for the family thing I raised three that were not mine and never have said stepchildren, they were mine and will be mine till the end and know how his Dad felt because it's really no one's business except the families! Keep on trucking Michael!
Imagine if Joe Rogan had this guy on.
You'd get a much better interview.
Yall say that like he'll go into detail about everything hes done on Joe Rogans show...he wont
It would be better because fundamentally Joe doesn’t talk over you like Vlad does
_"Has the mafia ever worked with aliens?"_
He'd ask him if he'd ever tried DMT.
Watched entire video, very interesting guy. Well spoken. Exudes confidence and is charismatic. Most happy he found God!
Yeah he found it just in time .!!
He could easily impersonate President Reagan with a little effort! It’ll awesome if he do the audiobook if Reagan biography!
Yes All Good things are possible with God 🙏🙏
@@ronniewoodinsteadofmt2615 better late than never
Why is Vlad reading Wikipedia to this guy?
Jason Russell 😂😂😂😂
Lol vlad just wants gossip hes about click bait.
Loooooool
And a lot of the shit on Wikipedia is wrong. smh
John Williams 90% is bullshit on hearsaypedia
This guy has to be in a movie of some sort. He could play the part of a mob boss FLAWLESSLY. I’ve said this before, they need to do a movie on the heads of the five families of New York, specifically in the 70s and 80s. The height of their power was in the 70s and they were brought down in the 80s so it was a very interesting and polarizing time for cosa nostra.
Michael is not a Hollywood wiseguy he's a real life wise guy
Vlad needs to up his pre interview research game. He often sounds like a mook.
I was thinking this. A lot of time wasted on questions with known and obvious answers
Yeah it's really bad, and you could tell Michael didn't appreciate it. It's disrespectful ... I mean, reading Wikipedia? Really?
Yup he sounds like a dumbass aswell.
@@rachelfoust2566 a big dum dum dummy dum
Vlad ASKS THE SAME QUESTION 2 OR 3 TIMES... "How many guys is your dad accused of killing?"
“What kind of drugs did she do?” Really dude? I would suggest you select better questions and practice asking them with dignity and grace.
Oh shut your complaining ass up. Some people wanted to know. Why not. I did....
@Michelle Hilton it makes no difference if she was hooked on heroin or coke etc
Vlad has no decorom? He's too much of a dork for this interview period!
Word. vlad is a shifty reporter.
My sister died of an overdose, what drug, didn’t ask, don’t care. She’s dead. Why did ask?
It’s weird if you think about it, how different interviews with mob guys from back in the day were just cronies or associates but this man is/was a legitimate BIG name in the life. Glad he’s open to some extent to tell his stories. And also how he changed his life around. Shits actually first hand history! Love his RUclips channel as well!
