I am an Italian American, but my father is half Siciliano & half Neapolitan, so i am loving this episode. My mother is (Toscana) northern/central Italian. Don't ask. Viva Italia 🇮🇹

In italiano standard non si dice carrozza da morto ma " carro funebre".Siete molto simpatici,un abbraccio da Firenze.Sono nato a Firenze da genitori siciliani.
You guys should interview the rapper jojo pellegrino!
Scuderi needs me actually
Sicilian first. We have a long and distinct history, and have definitely not always been politically connected to the Italian Peninsula. And we definitely have more in common with Southern Italy than Northern Italy because of Greek colonization (Magna Grecia), but even then, we have distinctions from Southern Italy because we have that Phoenician/Carthaginian hostory and then the Islamic period with the Aghlabids, Fatimids, and Kalbids.
And the greatest general in Fatimid history was a Sicilian. He also rose to the rank of Grand Visier of the Fatimid Caliphate and helped found the city of Cairo.
You know you also have a Norman history ensuing the Islamic period? And you had Northern Italians settlements in the 13th century, at the time of emperor Frederick II? Those people were mostly from Lower Piedmont and Liguria, they were called Lombards (not to be confused with present-day Lombards from Lombardia though). The town of Corleone, for example, was repopulated by Lombards after the Saracens were forced to leave it. Sicily is a melting pot of cultures from many different places, Northern Italy and Northern Europe included, don't forget that when you mention history.
“I’m a man of science “ I’ma start using that now
Its a another form of "trust me bro".
Who borns in south italy it's tougher than the americans with italian origins...that's a fact..south italy the surviving lifestyle, the tough jobs and that tlreal street life made us tough
Get the Bosco guy on this thing full time
I thought it was a chick
Siciliana with 6 black cats 🫣
My late grandmother ((extremely superstitious)) sent Mama🐈⬛ to me, out of nowhere, when I was crying in the backyard, at their home the hour my grandfather passed. She is solid black with the exception of a white heart-shaped locket on her neck.
The following day, that little kitten, showed up with her boyfriend 🐈⬛🐈⬛.
The pair are bonded + named after my grandparents.
They also had kittens, then one of their kittens, had kittens... Now, I have three generations of gatti that all act like
la mia famiglia siciliana. When you ask for signs from your deceased 🇮🇹 loved ones be careful what you wish for 🙃
#VivaSicilia #TNR #FeralCatsNeed❤Too
I agree, the kids are being brought up with no respect and no standards

2 much corruption in Italia there will be no bridges connecting Sicily to the main land lol.🇮🇹✌🏼🇺🇸
3 Americans 1 italian
I’m from Calabria and I see 4
You came here and clicked on a video that you don't like just to make a moot point that fell apt ears.
@@David-mz8xkhe's not lying though
It’s actually St. Jude
Sicilian? That means you’re Mediterranean but not really Italian right?
Good episode, but that “fact” that Giovanni presented at the beginning is BS. There is absolutely no connection between beard growth and bone strength.
Shoot for the moon, but do not fight any top 10 ranked heavyweights
These guys look a bit Turkish.
We are good people at the core. Giovanni talks about principles and code and respect at 29 wait until you’re 40 or 50 and look upon it. It’s disgraceful
They lost respect especially in usa for us real italians
