Michael is proof that many criminals have the business skills to do really well in life. Many legitimate businesses do really well as well as the crime. But for many the allure of crime is too much, good for Michael he made it out and got himself on a good path. Shows you The Power of seeing The Light!
I have no desire to be involved in crime, but the St smarts most of these guys had is astounding. They were hustlers and many could have made millions legally. There’s still a lot to learn for young entrepreneurs about the opportunities that are waiting.
Great Interview. As a retired NYPD officer myself Bill and Micheal were spot on with the way things were during that time period. I myself had several interactions with mob guys on and off duty in particular Columbo and Gambino members all because of the area i worked in was a bastion of mob activity.
How much did yet as a bonus on top of your cop salary? Or you know colleagues from your precinct or nearby that were on the payroll? Were the mob neighbourhoods as safe as Franseze said they were? More questions? Yes!, but maybe later
I remember reading a magazine in the mid 80s. It clearly showed Michael Franzeze as a star in the Colombo Crime family. In other words, a very intelligent and capable man. Michael is such a lucid speaker who educates people and shows a lot of class and style..something very much lacking in today's world. God bless you Michael.
Legality was aspirational in NYC. There were far worse men than Mr. Franzese. I probably broke as many or more laws than he did, though not as profitably.
The reason I like this channel is I am 40 years old, African American male born in the early 80s. All of this just puts my childhood in perspective. Just the way the world was, how police were, how the rumors of organized crime was. But the one thing I can say is I respect both sides of these stories. As a man, I can empathize with their young decisions and where it led them. I never was a big risk taker, but I knew people like them. And we all make decisions. The good part is sitting down like this and talking about it. It's life and experience. Talks like these give a lot of wisdom that we can gain from.
I agree, but I believe respect has always been lacking throughout human history, to one degree or another. I personally believe a lack of respect is at the heart of all conflict to some degree.
Men(myself included) need to get over the stigma of were men and can't show emotions or talk about it. It was ingrained in us as kids without it being talked about. We somehow just knew.
@RONNIE_WATTS I remember in the late 70's-80's we were always told to straighten up and stop crying. Somewhere along the way, all the emotions that we are supposed to feel as human beings got pushed to the back of everything that we shouldn't feel. Toughen up! I'm going to give you something to cry about! Yes, boys got it worse. Do you wanna know something, though? I have seen my 77 year old dad cry more in the past 20 years than he did when I was growing up. I don't care how old you are. Mental health is so important these days with all of the horrible things going on in this world. A veteran who comes home from war has to go through extensive trauma therapy. I was never in the military, but life has not been good to me. I have been in and out of therapy my whole life. Brain health is just as important as your heart health.
@Libralove1772 you are correct and I feel your Dad because all the stuff I've been through and avoided growing up is now catching up to me and I cry about certain stuff all the time when I feel it. Like regretting talking to my mom because she did her own thing when her and my dad divorced and she wasn't around much and when she was she was always more than a friend than a mom and my dad was an alcoholic and a mean one at that and he fucked me up mentally when I was younger to the point I hated any drunk asshole and when I would see him with a beer or liquor a switch would flip in me and I would be angry right away. I was always an angry asshole till I met the first girl who showed me what real love is and she calmed me down alot. That kind of stuff never leaves your mind until you take care of it but I've always been afraid to talk to someone about it out of trust issues. I used to be a extrovert until out of the blue years down the road I've started changing and became an introvert and I didn't even know what it was at first and couldn't explain it to my ex gf why I quit talking to her as much and she thought I just didn't love her anymore which wasn't the case but I couldn't explain it because I didn't know. I've had a rough life but I don't use it as an excuse for who I am. I've become more of a loner as I've grown older.
I’m really enjoying this channel, it’s interesting educational and captivating! These “sit-downs” are my favorites on youtube!!! God bless you and your family, Michael 🙏 ♥️
Michael, at the opening of today's show I looked at the way you were looking at Bill, you Crack me up! Once a mob boss always a mob boss. Much respect love your content!
@@ColKurtzknew u know what now that u say that your right.. He always says “glory to my God” and gives credit to his faith getting him thru.. there is only one God and His name is Jesus and His name is above all other names and it’s faith in Him that makes a believer an overcomer and a victor!!
@@MichaelBlain7990 Many self described Christians in the public eye are reticent to affirm His name because they rightfully know it will alienate their audience. Not saying that's the case here but it's plausible.
Great interview I worked with Bill a long time and what he’s done is 100%. I’ve also watched most of your interviews and totally enjoy them. Great stuff much success to both of you
Bill recently did an interview with Greg Scarpa Jr. Would love to see you sitdown with Greg Jr, two made guys from the same era and same family is rarely seen in this space.
Another great show Mike! Ya know it's funny, you guys make New York sound like a small little town cause you former guys know all the same people. God bless you & your family Mike!
@Michael Franzese: Very Interesting & Fascinating Interview Michael to have Bill on your Show!! He has a lot of interesting Stories!! I can't wait to check out his RUclips Channel!! God Bless You & Your Family Michael!!😀🙏👏👏👏👍
"It was different back then " Yes it was Mr Franzese, 1950's boomer here, America had a polite society , even made men were part of that society,; they didn't do violence in their Grandmother's neighborhood. A few exceptions (quickly corrected by general consensus) to maintain the regular order for all.
58 year old White woman here .... your past lives fascinate me. Got my 35 year old daughter hooked on you, too! LoL So good to see where you are now. God bless 🇺🇲❤️🇺🇲
Long time mob reporter who went through the power days of the Mafia, into Giuliani and RICO taking down mob was asked who would take mob's place. He said the FBI. They'd studied the Mafia's organization so long, figured out use it. It was a sincere comment he made. He was very sad about it.
@@SubManifest That was my interpretation. He said power abhors a vacuum. It's kinda like the FBI was a 6th Family. It eliminated the other 5, took out the competition. J. Edgar Hoover would have approved.
Not only men who are 50 and are interested, but some women in that age bracket are also very interested in what you are talking about. Never did I thought I would be supporting someone like Michael Franzese. And thank you for saying that the mob were involved with Kennedy’s assassination. There was so much cover up with that situation. 😢
I grew up in NYC from '91. Even though technically there were more murders back then, the quality of life, and general safety of civilians was 10X better, than what it is now. The majority of that violence was limited to the criminal world, civilians were not really bothered. There was also much less other crime, robberies, assaults, etc. At least in normal neighborhoods. I always say, back then you never had to worry about your girl, mother, sister, daughter, walking home alone at night. You never really had to worry about leaving a nice car out on the street. Now it's just chaos...
That’s because you were in a white neighborhood other neiborhoods saw the exact opposite people use to congratulate you for making it home without Being robbed even boys were sexually assaulted in the streets
Dear Michael Franzese I would realy enjoy when you bring judge Caprio. Because he is an upstanding guy. Please i would love that because he is a beloved judge and Christian
I really respect you. My great uncle was al Capone nephew his father was a older brother of al Capone and his brother Frank who nobody ever remembers some of his family lives in Washington State today and we aren't in the Mafia or anything my great uncle married into a good family
Thoroughly enjoyed the podcast. Bill will definitely have me as a subscriber to his channel. Michael , I totally agree that "people are enthralled with La Cosa Nostra" , and I believe that Bill will have a huge following as well. I don't believe that the "general public" really has any idea what goes on behind the scene on the Cops side of things or what they know or who they know. In addition , and I have no idea why , but people are out of their minds , intrigued by serial killers !!!! Are they born like that , does something trigger them , are they bullied Altar Boys etc. Great , great content.
I'm a former criminal myself, member of a Infamous group that you all have heard of. I did 12 years got out, found God had two children, bought a home and car and have completely turned my life around.
The mob bares responsibility in their own downfall but the federal government also used unconstitutional means like wiretapping and so called “RICO” laws to entrap people.
Thank you Michael for showing us all how to be honorable and legitimate. You are an inspiration at the crossroads and the universe forevermore with Ryan Blount ❤
I like that sit down like it with Bill Courtney it's very excellent 👍 keep doing more sit down I like it be safe and I pray for you Mike and good health and happy Easter 🐰🐣 did you enjoy Easter
Mr. Franzese...Thank you for your insight. You have been an object of strength not by fear but by compassion. I know that life was glamorous one. If I may ask you sir....How hard is raising teenage girls. I have two ..and frankly..It:s tough. But I'm not done. Any advice to make this transition easier? I have a junior in college and another just got a scholarship offer. Yet.. I feel like chopped liver. Thank you for your insight in advanced.
Mike you need to interview Tommy Dades a serious guy and love seeing him on RUclips… can’t wait to see you in a few weeks in Ireland I’ve been following you right from the start
MF - GREAT to listen to you - I am a cop - and appreciate listening to you and your life and where you are at now. Would love to see you interview Dan Bongino!
Hey Mike, just a constructive tip - there seems to be an echo in the room, maybe you can remedy it by putting those sound absorbent mats on the wall you don't see and the ceiling that look like egg crates they put in recording studios
This is such a great interview and both sides being frank about things. We have massive street gang violence in England and if a cop sneezes in the UK they lose their job. Stop and search powers pretty much neutered and cops under so much scrutiny that it benefits little thugs. The swing has gone so much the other way that it benefits all these street gangs
The police should be watched and policed themselves by the public that they're supposed to serve. The lawmakers too. Manny of those sentences were and are extreme especially for drug offense
The public know nothing about the realities of police work so that wouldn't work. That said, it already happens and is one of the reasons policing in 2024 is a bad joke.
Yes!! That’s the big question!!! Who watches the people that watch us?? It’s supposed to be citizen journalists but our news media has been hijacked by liberal politicians
Michael is proof that many criminals have the business skills to do really well in life. Many legitimate businesses do really well as well as the crime. But for many the allure of crime is too much, good for Michael he made it out and got himself on a good path. Shows you The Power of seeing The Light!
He had to do himself but he met and married the right woman and turned his life to Christianity! His is a inspirational story!
I have no desire to be involved in crime, but the St smarts most of these guys had is astounding. They were hustlers and many could have made millions legally. There’s still a lot to learn for young entrepreneurs about the opportunities that are waiting.
The Son of Sam sit down is going to be awesome I can't wait. Great content Mr. Franzese keep it up.
Son of sammy the bull?
@blunntslt8023 No brudda. Just no.
The son of Sam episodes were very good!
Great Interview. As a retired NYPD officer myself Bill and Micheal were spot on with the way things were during that time period. I myself had several interactions with mob guys on and off duty in particular Columbo and Gambino members all because of the area i worked in was a bastion of mob activity.
Any interesting stories?
Yes we definitely want stories. Maybe consider making videos?
How much did yet as a bonus on top of your cop salary? Or you know colleagues from your precinct or nearby that were on the payroll? Were the mob neighbourhoods as safe as Franseze said they were? More questions? Yes!, but maybe later

I don't even understand this level of d riding.
In 1986 he was ranked 18th out of 50 of the most powerful and influential mob bosses at the time
@@justinthebeau2590 Wow.
Legality was aspirational in NYC. There were far worse men than Mr. Franzese. I probably broke as many or more laws than he did, though not as profitably.
The way some people idolise criminality is hilarious.
Like always, a nice and calm talking between 2 wise man about an interesting time. Thx for sharing the conversation.
Great discussion! These interviews with current and former law enforcement are my favorite ❤
The reason I like this channel is I am 40 years old, African American male born in the early 80s. All of this just puts my childhood in perspective. Just the way the world was, how police were, how the rumors of organized crime was.

Puts the whole "respect your elders" into perspective a little.
I saw a knife fight on 42 and 8th with a cop standing right there. This was back in 1979. NYC was wild as all get out back then.
Chicago is becoming the same way
Excellent interview. I grew up up in SW Philly/eastern Delaware county in the 70’s. The one thing that lacks in todays world is RESPECT
I agree, but I believe respect has always been lacking throughout human history, to one degree or another. I personally believe a lack of respect is at the heart of all conflict to some degree.
Another great sit down Michael, look forward to seeing you Dublin Ireland in May . Grazie millie
I'm looking forward to listening to your interview. Mental health really is something that society needs to get a hold of.
Men(myself included) need to get over the stigma of were men and can't show emotions or talk about it. It was ingrained in us as kids without it being talked about. We somehow just knew.

The real problem is claiming normal human emotions are a metal health issue.
You have some great guest!! Thanks for sharing the “ truth” with us!! Take balls!!!
Mr Franzese, your mic has a distant sound to it, Bill’s mic sounds fine though
the camera keeps going in and out of focus also
@@michaelfranzese You're a goat bro i'd love to just sit and listen to u talk
It’s because his mic didn’t work so they had to use the audio of the camera
@@michaelfranzesethe sit down w Matt Cox had similar audio technical difficulties off and on as well Mike
It happens every other video. Easy fix but he’s not doing anything.
I’m really enjoying this channel, it’s interesting educational and captivating! These “sit-downs” are my favorites on youtube!!! God bless you and your family, Michael 🙏 ♥️
I have the upmost respect for this man He is an very intelligent and educated also been through a lot and seen a lot so kudos to you Michael franzese
Michael, at the opening of today's show I looked at the way you were looking at Bill, you Crack me up! Once a mob boss always a mob boss. Much respect love your content!
Please for god sake he was a captain or caporigime in the columbo family not the boss of the family !!

Fantastic interview!!! Please have him back on again. It's a great mix seeing each sides take on things in your former lives. Good going!! Thank you.
So glad the Lord kept you safe and gave you a testimony and the ability to tell the truth about the life.

What an amazing interview! A view from both sides. I love how you show the respect both sides have for eachother
Keep up the good work Michael!! America first! Trump 2024. Make America Great Again and FJB!!
Fascinating history stories ! I could listen to these two for hours !

Yh he's like yh this guy full of bollox
Really enjoyed this sit down! Thank you!
Dear Michael Franzese
I would realy enjoy when you bring judge Caprio. Because he is an upstanding guy.
Please i would love that because he is a beloved judge and Christian
It is so sad that he is so ill! He seems like a great man.
Amazing conversation as always brother Michael 🙏
i dont normally watch a whole video, but holy cow you have great content man
Im so hyped for the Son of Sam Talk 💯🙏🏽
I really respect you. My great uncle was al Capone nephew his father was a older brother of al Capone and his brother Frank who nobody ever remembers some of his family lives in Washington State today and we aren't in the Mafia or anything my great uncle married into a good family
Very good interview looking forward to the Son of Sam upload
Good to see people getting along!
Good video love the dynamics between you and Bill.
Happy Easter Michael He is Risen
This was good. I look forward to these interviews.
Wow. That's going to be a great interview. Thanks for your work Michael.
It was a great show and conversation, as always.

I don't believe that the "general public" really has any idea what goes on behind the scene on the Cops side of things or what they know or who they know. In addition , and I have no idea why , but people are out of their minds , intrigued by serial killers !!!! Are they born like that , does something trigger them , are they bullied Altar Boys etc. Great , great content.

Good Afternoon Michael, hope you had a great Easter. Thank you for the great content.
One of the best channels. Always very interesting.
The mob bares responsibility in their own downfall but the federal government also used unconstitutional means like wiretapping and so called “RICO” laws to entrap people.
Sometimes the law has to be broken to stop bad people.
The irony of someone saying the government wasn’t following the rules to to take down people who do t follow the rules
Thank you Michael for showing us all how to be honorable and legitimate. You are an inspiration at the crossroads and the universe forevermore with Ryan Blount ❤
Great sit down interview Michael a lot of good stories love all your videos. Keep up the great work.
Love your videos! I’m from utica. Served in politics and your videos remind me of home.
Happy Passover/ Easter, etc.
These two make an interesting duo. Good chemistry.
Another great interview Michael.
Just watched Casino and the start of this interview is very gripping considering the events of that film!
Fascinating interview!👏
Michael is all class all the time.
I love these stories ..
greata sitdown watchen right now god bless be safe
Michael, keep doing what you’re doing, I have a few of your books I absolutely love all the videos!

Fascinating interview! Just subscribed to his channel.
I like that sit down like it with Bill Courtney it's very excellent 👍 keep doing more sit down I like it be safe and I pray for you Mike and good health and happy Easter 🐰🐣 did you enjoy Easter
The movie business loved me so much, when I worked on a picture at Alcatraz, the put me in Capone's cell.
Thank you brother
Mr. Franzese...Thank you for your insight. You have been an object of strength not by fear but by compassion. I know that life was glamorous one.

Great interview!!
Mike you need to interview Tommy Dades a serious guy and love seeing him on RUclips… can’t wait to see you in a few weeks in Ireland I’ve been following you right from the start
Solid interview.
Liked this one alot Mike bring more nyc cops on
Love the sitdown! 💪
Michael I love the painting behind you enjoyed the sit down
Nice one fellas. Really enjoyed this
MF - GREAT to listen to you - I am a cop - and appreciate listening to you and your life and where you are at now. Would love to see you interview Dan Bongino!
Great show
Hey Mike, just a constructive tip - there seems to be an echo in the room, maybe you can remedy it by putting those sound absorbent mats on the wall you don't see and the ceiling that look like egg crates they put in recording studios
Well it's good to see that you are now on better terms with gene knowing that you guys had issues before
Great sit down @MichaelFranzse, will you someday do a sit-down with Johnny Sack (Vincent Curtula) he was very underrated in the Sopranos
MANY NY Residents have told me, that the Building Companies, Garbage Collection and Utiliities were BETTER run when they were under the Mafia!
I’m happy to see someone expose the government maybe more will see how bad the justice system really is.
This is such a great interview and both sides being frank about things. We have massive street gang violence in England and if a cop sneezes in the UK they lose their job. Stop and search powers pretty much neutered and cops under so much scrutiny that it benefits little thugs. The swing has gone so much the other way that it benefits all these street gangs
The police should be watched and policed themselves by the public that they're supposed to serve. The lawmakers too. Manny of those sentences were and are extreme especially for drug offense
Exactly. This guy complaining about not being able to beat up citizens and get away with it anymore.
Police don’t exist to serve they exist to enforce
The public know nothing about the realities of police work so that wouldn't work. That said, it already happens and is one of the reasons policing in 2024 is a bad joke.
Yes!! That’s the big question!!! Who watches the people that watch us?? It’s supposed to be citizen journalists but our news media has been hijacked by liberal politicians
Just an excellent chat. Tku gents.
Mr. F, when will you be interviewing Mike dowd?!
That would be a fun interview!!!
Excellent. Thank you
Good stuff like usual!
