I agree with your belief on women and men relationships. Including what you said when you had your daughters on. These days it’s difficult to find a man with those beliefs, traditions and I’m in my early 60’s. I hope the men out there listen to you. Love your sit down!
I agree 💯 with his belief on women & men too! I have always wanted a man exactly as he described for the reasons he described. I enjoy being a woman & everything that goes with it. I have no interest in being anything else.
I’ve been watching your shows since 200k. I love how you’ve diversified your channel but still remain true to what popularised your channel to begin with. Shows you really listen to us and try tomorrow we what we what. Thanks man!
I'm 65. I'm sure Mr Frazese like me, everyday you wake up on this side of the grass you're thankful to God. By the way Gianni Russo said he slept with all the women you mentioned too, and some you didn't mention, before he was even born! Lol!
I haven’t gotten past your intro before I had to comment. You summed it up in a few sentences. You are 100% correct. I have always been asked why am I attracted to the bad boy persona. I don’t think I’m exactly attracted to the bad boy persona. I think it’s more of being attracted to a confident man. One who comes off strong and sure of himself. We do want to feel safe, protected by a man who we can look to to be strong. Basically I want a man who can be my rock. One who is intelligent, honorable, and one who not just demands respect, but deserves it. Nothing is more unappealing to me than a weak, wishy-washy, follow the Leader type. I want the leader. That’s it… so yeah, I can see why women are attracted to mafia men. There is something sexy about a sharply dressed, Italian made man. 😉
Hello Michael. This was a great one. Nice to break it up with a little fun sit down sometimes❤ Love your content and am so happy to see you living your best life and happy.
Beauty and the beast scenario…women are attracted to the man who is rough around the edges, they are protectors. Some also enjoy the task of a man who requires some “work.”
Many women do seem to "work" on whatever man they get. Some like the challenge of difficult or dangerous men. I myself have retired from that unfortunate inclination.
@@ANoneYaMouse goes for women as well. We all need “work” men are just more prone to violence because we are capable of it. I promise you if women were as strong there would be over double the domestic assaults.
Hi Michael! I hope that all is well. There is such an emphasis on the men in “the life”… I am curious about how women interact in that life. Looking forward!
HI Michael. "Moll" is probably American Italian slang for "Moglie" which means "wife" in Italian. That is the only way I can figure that one. LOL! Interesting video. The things we learn about our parents over time.
Great content as usual. The thing about you Mr. Franzese is that you’re very approachable in your personality and growing up I was very enamored with the lifestyle and once in a while the tough guy comes out and you realize that you’re not all bubble gum and roses. Keep up the great work.
A video about Pete Milano from Los Angeles perhaps? I know you briefly talked about meeting him in prison. Did you meet any of the other LA mobsters like Caci or Brooklier? Thanks!
@@mercuryxyz7222 lmao what a dumb comment she tried to be like her , and have you seen what she looked like towards the end of her life? She is not better
Micheal. Absolutely women love real men. They love security and money and real manly men are protective of their women in that life so I can see how they would be attracted to that. God bless Micheal.
Fun video! As a woman, I can confirm this phenomenon because I was very drawn to "bad boys" until around the age of 26, when I married one 😂. I ended up leaving him because he cheated on me every single time my back was turned! Thankfully, we didn't have any children and I went on to "nicer" pastures. 😅
Hey Michael! Would love to see a video dedicated to insecurity within the mafia and it’s members, seeing how the lifestyle causes paranoia and sensitises the egos of its members
Donna Reed? I see her daily on the Donna Reed show! Unbelievable!! Michael, I love your sit downs. My husband and I watch them together while eating dinner:). I’ve ordered your delicious wine too! I’m Sicilian and just fascinated by our Italian culture!
I appreciate these videos because I grew up in NYC. I live and farm in a small town in the south and you are like a breath of fresh air from the old times. Thanks for sharing your experiences on such an uplifting way. God bless.
Hey Mr. Franzese, don't think Bugsy will be to happy with you not mentioning his glamorous gal Virginia Hill, but hey out of that list Jayne Mansfield Wow. good video as always keep up the good work my friend. aw the best fae Scotland.
Really good show...I have a season of Donna Reeds show.I was watching it one day It made me cry.I felt so stupid but that time is gone I feel sad about that.People maybe couldn't maybe live up to that family life but it was a positive role model .Boy we truly need a positive role today.God Bless.
Oh, that's funny, I was just thinking about exactly that subject and that it would be interesting project for Michael Franzese to speak about what kind of women make it with a men like himself and what that kind of men expect from their women to be like - and here it is, 30 minutes later, new episode on the similar subject!:) Thoughts are a really powerful thing! I was growing up in '90ies, it was Perestroika time in ex-Soviet Union countries and a lot of unlimited crime. I was a beautiful girl and spent my youth dating "gangsters" (we called them 'bandits' in Russian over here). Expensive fast cars, no limits in everything... Back then I've also got my love for shooting ranges, was pretty good at that, did a lot of shooting when I lived in Florida later in life. Since then I've changed a lot, I do art and I do not cross with that sort of people anymore, but it's still my type, can't help it and I've also absorbed a lot from them, so that spirit became a part of my personality. Seems they read in it my face somehow, when I see those people somewhere, it's like we recognize each other and both know who we are, one quick look in the eyes is enough. Unfortunately (or fortunately) I never could make it to be with a man like that longterm coz I've got a really strong character, can't stay under someone's control and it seemed that sort of men had to be in control of everything and everyone, including their woman, plus there was always manipulation. So, that's still a dellema sometimes, because, despite all the wisdom I've gained over life, all the experience and all my deep psychology knowledge - I'm still deeply attracted to men with a criminal background because I've never felt more feminine, more understood, more close to each other, more same-spirited and of course more protected in all means, than with that kind of men. It just felt like we are same-minded and have the same blood. God knows better, maybe there is someone out there, who will be just the right one for me one day. For now creating art is a priority in life. Thank you, Mr.Franzese, I absolutely love your channel, many things reminding me of my youth!:)
Mr. Franzese this was a great and interesting video. I especially liked YOUR comments about each "starlet affair" -- they sounded authentic,trughful, direct, and sincere. And that's why I liked it.
Omggg! I love this!! My uncle bill (he passed away) he was one of her photographers!!! He had all his photos in his studio. Our family had a big property. So I would ride my little pink Barbie corvette up to there house. Years later my aunt and uncle told me when I would ride up to their house…I would always come in and look for “ Janes pictures.” Lmao. Once I saw the pictures I remembered❤️
Hi Michael, I remembered you saying that violence and whacking people was the last solution. But has there been any Family that never committed murder.
There is nothing sexier than a man who is a man and that makes a woman feel safe, and I think men in the mob and Italian men in general mastered this. Too many men today have dropped the ball... and woman are not ladies either. I am old school, and I love the 50s style ideals for women and men. Bless you Michael! I keep you and your family in prayer.
the irony is that you sound no manly at all lol saying men are sexy .. also praising criminals: what a characteristic... I found mob stories very interesting but im not starstruck by those guys
Oh, and Toddy (Thelma Todd) was thought to have been murdered. She owned a very popular restaurant and, I think, Lucky Luciano himself tried to buy it from her but she refused. Interesting she was with Giancanno the night before she died. Zasu Pitts (?) was her best friend and told this story years ago.
Hey Michael Again You Nailed It I Enjoy Hearing Your Perspective It's Nice To Hear Other Points Of View That Might Be Different And You Are Right Women Do Want A Real Man But We Won't Put Up With Abuse Or Any Controlling I Just Ask For A Man To Allow Me To Be And Do What I Feel I'm Called To Do I Don't Think Men Should Decide What Women Are Allowed To Do Respect Us And We Will Respect You!
Love your stuff Michael. God Bless you and your Family. I have a question for you. I'm from Danbury, Connecticut. Could you do a spot about mob in Connecticut I would greatly appreciate it
Everything you said is so true and on point about what attracts women to 'STRONG' men. They treat you with respect, protect you and above all carry themselves with style and flair. LOVE IT!!! Yes, loads are 'really, really' bad boys...but not abusive to their women which is dangerously important.
How much more interesting to read this article with someone who knows the 'mobsters' being written about and who can add additional personal knowledge to the story! Though, I have always heard "moll" pronounced with a short letter "o" (to rhyme with "doll"). The word "moll" allegedly derives from the word "molly,' which was slang for a 'woman of ill repute.'
Thank you for nice video. I wanted to be a Hollywood actress since I was eleven years old. When I was sixteen years old, my parents said some of entertainment industries have connected to mob. Your speaking about entertainment industry is important for me.
Mr. Franzese: I have a question about the obligations assumed when becoming a Made Man. I understand you can't sleep with a Made Man's mother, sister, wife, or daughter. That is pretty straight-forward. My question is regarding mob girlfriends. In listening to many anecdotal stories, it becomes obvious to me that girlfriends get recycled. Virginia Hill comes to mind. One man's trash is truly another man's treasure. I expect that if "Connie" was with "Brian" 2 years ago, it's fine if "Vinnie" takes up with her today. But, what about much narrower time frames. What if the break-up happened 3 months ago? Is Vinnie fine to pursue Connie? What if there has not been an official break-up, but things are distant between Connie and Brian? In that instance, should Vinnie choose not to pursue Connie? The Oath says nothing, specifically, regarding girlfriends, but you have to "live together" with your fellow mobsters; hopefully in peace. So, clue me in on how the dust usually settles on this particular matter. Thanks.
Hey michael!.. Hope you are doing OK and the family. I remember you saying that you had basically "control" in long island. New York. You were made in 75? Now this happened the year before November 74 if I'm right... But is there any truth that you know off to the rumours of the mob being involved in the "defeo murders" in amityville? I know there was mob ties in the family on the mom's side Louise defeo?her father being michael brigante... Just an interesting subject is all...
Mr. Franzese excellent excellent show. My sister and brother-in-law were born completely deaf. It would be great if you could "close caption" your broadcasts. Keep your podcasts coming.
Hello Mr Franzese great video as usual. I think with the movies like ''Goodfellas'' but particularly the tv shows like the ''Sopranos'', they showed that mobsters wives and girl friends did not go round with machine guns and wear hats like Faye Dunaway in ''Bonnie and Clyde''.
Hey Mike, I’ve been watching you for awhile now and I gotta say, your dad looks a lot famous actor Jon Bernthal (Tony’s dad from sopranos movie), you think he’d make a good Sonny?
You definitely like the same music I do. My grandfather brought me up on Sinatra, Tony Bennett, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Nat King Cole, and all the classics. You can’t beat it!
Hey Michael, I respect you a great deal and im a younger guy really trying to make it in my industry. I would much rather be loved then feared and I am a nice, hard working guy. But how can I establish myself as a person that commands respect, without becoming a monster? Thanks and much love.
You have to have a balance...it just depends where to use certain tactics..find out what circumstances require for you to be loved and where it requires you to be feared..can always capitalize on both
My aunt was married to an enforcer named Isadore Goldberg. Jewish under gang to Capone, but left to go on his own. Killed by Jack McGurn. My aunt told me some crazy stories about Chicago in the 20s.
I agree with your belief on women and men relationships. Including what you said when you had your daughters on. These days it’s difficult to find a man with those beliefs, traditions and I’m in my early 60’s. I hope the men out there listen to you. Love your sit down!

Thanks for sharing! You were wise for getting out. I was acquainted with a couple of gals who weren't as fortunate.

Great podcast Michael. I wouldn't believe everything in that article but it's really interesting and some of it is probably true.

Mr. Franzese: I have a question about the obligations assumed when becoming a Made Man. I understand you can't sleep with a Made Man's mother, sister, wife, or daughter. That is pretty straight-forward. My question is regarding mob girlfriends. In listening to many anecdotal stories, it becomes obvious to me that girlfriends get recycled. Virginia Hill comes to mind.
