There's people that you could hear talking for a whole day and never get bored, this is one of them.
@C S Would Franzese ever do a conversation with Sammy the Bull?
Agreed. Excellent story teller. And its purpose driven
@C S Ah, I gotcha! Thanks.
@@FatherAndTeacherTV i fkn hope so. With these two puttin vids out daily its like having two favorite uncles non stop hittin us up with amazing stories. In one of his recent vids Sammy respectfully name dropped Michael so I think its only a matter of time til they have a sit down
Cmon Uncle Mike, we all know you were more of a business mind money maker than a hitter but you gotta give us some stories about when you were comin up and had to do some dirty work
Michael Franzese is going to be the type of grandpa with a lot of stories in a family reunion that you could hear and never get bored
Heâs 70 he is a grandpa
@@bigsauce1971 dang he looks great for 70
No need to tell the stories. His family can just watch the records from court. He was singing there.
Im guessing that the Family let him go on the condition that he doesnât do any harm to them. Hell, they may have made him their PR guy and heâs still working for them. Otherwise l cant see how he and Hoffa arenât in the same hole.
@@joeyrossetti13
A lot of people already have grandparents that were in the military brother
Once an earner, always an earner. You made money as a made man in the mafia, now you make money from your books, CZcams channel, and tours around the world. This guy knows how to make money in any avenue he's in. It's awe inspiring.
I've always liked Mobster movies. My favorites are the Godfather and Goodfellas. I just found your channel over the weekend and find it fascinating.
Michael is actually in Goodfellas :) Bamboo Lounge.
YOU R doing well helping PEOPLE. BUTWHAT DOI U FEEL SHOULD HAPPAN TO BIDEN. THE BETRAYER TO US AND THE USA
Hbo gotti movie is very good
@@stephenmcguire1935 ⊠best mob movie ever!
@@luciamaria1859 The whole lot of them are betrayers
Anyone else appreciate how Michael's videos are always one shot?
They are well edited, but as soon as i saw this comment i watched him do a slight transition.
No acting, hes as real as it gets.
He definitely does edits and cuts but not as much as other folks on other channels
Itâs supposed to be two đ
He just talks
Nothing like hearing a former mobster teaching me about the spirit of Christmas.
Bless you and your family bro.
GUERRERO!.. SALUDOS D MEXICO
The Sopranos crew insulted me on their last podcat.
I'd suggest checking that on my channel, seems like Michael doesn't like the Sopranos either.
@Leo Messi they did insult him tho lol
@Leo Messi u said he has 15 subscribers as if it matters

"use your imagination"
Damn...
Vagazoide por aqui ahaushsishsisjsj
Did he kill someone?
@@ajjohnstone7063 He said he got made right? What do you think?
@@lucasr531 Na, I donât know nothing đđđ
@@ajjohnstone7063 Use your imagination literally means I do lots of illegal stuff and also even kill to get made, but I ain't giving the Feds nothin' haha..
"What is the normal day in the life of a mobster?"
Stress 24/7/365.
Exactly!!! Don't believe the crap hollywood shows you. It's pure hell
@@salmaccarrone2401 Sal I was never in a criminal organization but I read books on it.
Donnie Brasco, Underboss by Sammy Gravano, Gotti, you get the idea.
All of them think about:
"What did my boss mean by that remark today? Am I in trouble."
"The head guy gave me a bad look. That's not a good sign."
"I might have to go to a sit down, will I walk out of there alive?"
"Are the Feds going to get me and will I be in for 20 to life."
"I got an order to whack my best friend."
Their real families are always dysfunctional.
@@kevinhealey6540 yes Kevin, like I said it's a life of pure hell and big time stress. If fucks up the entire family. The FBI does that in the hopes that the mobsters will stop for the sake of their family but, they don't. Hollywood glorifies these people but, it's a horrible horrible life. It's changed so much. There is no more honor. Your brother will back stab you. The mafia just isn't what it was. They had real power. I mean real power like having judges and even senators in their back pockets, now they've been reduced to just ordinary criminals.
@@salmaccarrone2401 It never was good. See the problem with it is with what they do they're going to have to hurt people.
No matter what it is.
Believe me if you do something bad to a good person it's going to come back to you.
@@salmaccarrone2401 Im pretty sure mob movies dont glorify that life. Tell me 1 mob movie that has a "happy" ending.
The "mob life" has never had any place in my life.
And, yet, I still love the personal stories and the history.
Wow! So you were never a mobster??? You coulda fooled me!!! Ha!!!

âThis Thing Of Oursâ - one of THE BEST BOOKS Iâve ever read. Treasured & read many times. âïž
đ„°đ„°đ„° I didn't know about it until JUST NOW!!!!
I NEED THIS
.... being I can't afford FOOD, it's going to have to wait. đ
I saw you speak maybe 12 or 13 years ago in Ohio, I went with a mentor of mine who was in the mafia for nearly 30 years and was able to walk away relatively unscathed. I recently rediscovered you and started watching your videos and really appreciate the message you give. There is nothing quite like a story of redemption and your life is an example of what people in dark places can hope for. God bless you, God bless you, God bless you, you and your family.
Was he made or an associate?
I can relate. We used to travel cross country with my mom and dad chain smoking while driving with windows up and when you start to roll the window down. It is the end of the world. I guess thatâs why I never smoked. Thanks for sharing your life. It is fascinating and scary at the same time.
Why didnt they like to roll it down ir even a bit? Lol. Is it cos the road nkise affecting their conversation
Mike ever since I've heard you talk about the importance of waking up early I've been trying to do that too, just wanted to let you know that. Thank you â€ïž
Same! And already feeling better!
@@michaelfranzese donât get killed in your pajamas!
@Dapper Don You canât be that naive. You really think he was getting up at 6am every morning after being out til 1am or 2am getting hammered at these clubs. Donât believe everything he tells you. He is a mob guy and he knows how to BS people. You job to listen but not necessarily believe everything he tells you. One of the qualification of being in mob is to be a good lier. People who are involved in illegal activities are naturally dishonest.
@@daoudaqtash9243 I watch all of his videos and he seems to be a pretty honest guy
@J H he testified against 3 people, but refused to testify against a made guy. look up times articles from that time period and you'll see.
âUse your imagination...â Translation...I ainât giving the FEDS nothin!
If you know you know đ
Thats why I love the guy he didn't care about what everyone was saying and he left in an honorable fashion
lol Michael gave the feds PLENTY he testified numerous times in the senate
@@roydemeo509 thatâs just a lie. Show proof if youâre gonna say dumb shit
@@roydemeo509 just show proof dont blah blah blah đ
I love Michaels positivity and encouragement, I think thatâs part of what made him successful then and now
I think it's interesting the amount work ethic, creativity and ambition these guys have....start putting that towards things that are legitimate and the sky's the limit without all the stress, anxiety and worry of "that life".
Most realistic quote in any mob movie, A Bronx Tale: "The saddest thing in life is wasted talent."
Too many of those guys found that out the hard way.
Loved the video listened to the whole thing
Hey youre also enjoying Franzese ? :D Good to see, love the videos my man. Any loot videos coming from trailblaizers maybe?
Wow... you managed to sit still for 17 and half minutes!
My fuckin hero! đđ
Now I know how you entertain yourself for the Loot from vids :D
Round of applause LOL
I'm from Providence Rhode Island I can totally relate feels good to reminisce
Michaelâs house must have 24 rooms. Heâs in a different room in near enough every video. Ha ha.
Could be green screen.
His house is just one room so he changes the camera angle and gets new background props every video!!! Hahaha!!!
Heâs breaded...the government never got back any of that $ from the gas thing...moneybags
@@Cubanb3 - He spread the money around the family. And yes, he had to pay 15 million in restitution!
He's a millionaire with a big 2 storey house. So yeah. Big house.
Just discovered this channel and I cannot stop watching the content! Youâre a very insightful, wise and humble man. Itâs very inspiring to see that no ones future is set!
Kind of funny how an ex mobster says that the commute was tough lol
I drove back and forth from Long Island to the city every day for almost 10 years. It takes a major toll on you.
I can listen to you sir whole day long.Especially when you say -Let me tell you this-You know then you gonna get a very smart,wise,advice based on life experience.Take care mr. Franzese.
I am glad you get to tell these stories, its like going back to the 1980's all over again
Youâre an inspiration to us all! What you do for your viewers is amazing!!! Great video! Keep it up! Iâm praying for your safety and health!
Finding this Channel was one the best things to happen to me all month! my dad and I been watching a lot of these, love the stories! Michael really is a great story teller đ
Itâs always great to listen to your stories . Thank you Sir
Merry Christmas Mr Franzese to you and your family. We are indeed all blessed, I think more are waking up to that realization and are trying to do the right thing and live accordingly
I appreciate your message brother. Very uplifting on a crappy day at work
Michael, I love hearing your stories.
I'm a huge fan of the mob's history, and as someone who has recently found christ you really inspire me to live my best life.
Thanks man. Best wishes to you and yours, and happy holidays.
Really inspirational Michael! You deserve so much respect for your family loyalty and priorities with your kids. Regards from the UK! đđœ
Michael i love your content.. always been a mafia history buff so I cant get enough of your stories and experiences. They truly help me greatly, in a positive manner. I would love to see you do a series on your fathers life.
I have no doubt the story of your fathers life from recruit to boss is absolutely unreal and it would be a shame to not hear that full story. God bless you Michael and thank you so much.
You're a good man michael. Some things you can't hide. The lord changes hearts.
I thoroughly enjoy the videos you make Michael. I enjoy the stories and the sharing of experience. I could listen to you all day, credit to you and that golden voice. Thanks for all the inspiring words.
I feel like he opens up another dimension in my head and I picture all he's talking about instead of seeing him, he's like a walking novel!
I still can't get over how young and healthy you look. Keep uploading these great stories.
You can hear the life experiences in the tone an characteristics in his voice that you know are pure. Great video brotha đ
I like this guy hes so likeable and natural
And he treats people with such respect
This is so informational. He broke down the positions and I understood it a lil better
I've read the books and have seen about everything possible followed you for years Michael. Love all of it
@@michaelfranzese I am a big fan as well. Your inspiration helped me get my life in order. I just wanted to say thank you. God bless.
i love listening, to me its like a podcast because my grandparents never had a sit down with me and told stories
I could never get bored with watching these videos, thank you Michael for sharing it with us. Hope all the best for you and your family.
I love these sit downs...I have learned so much and thoroughly enjoy the topics and all of the guests. I have purchased 3 of the 4 books you mentioned on this video and I am looking forward to your new project about our government.
âA day in the life of a mobster named Mikeâ đ¶ đ”
I like the story. Very encampsulating. The way he describe every detail is like drawing a person inside a book
For a guy like me being interested in the history of the Cosa Nostra, it is really a privilege to hear the stories from a man who not only has been there but also gave it some deep thinking in all the aspects. Presenting this in a polite way, without being proud of violance and using F words all the time makes it worth following this. Well done Mr. Franzese!
U have a good heart Mr.Franzece! U always try nd soothe us at the end of your videos ...Thank U nd Godbless u nd your family as wellđŻđđ
That was a great outline for an informational background. Leadership principles apply in most formal public or secret organizational structures as Michael clearly communicates. There are educational gems with perception. Happy Holidays to the community at large. A very thoughtful channel.
The best âshowâ found on CZcamsâŠâŠ Thank you for your time and energy⊠Salute
I love the authenticity, straight forward, no BS content. MF you definitely inspire me to get where I want to be and obtain what I want! Thank you!
Love the way you fit your shirts. Perfect choice color and style. Thanks for the stories. Blessings to you and family
I know your goal now is to spread the word of God. But I hope you never get frustrated telling old war stories. You provide an incredible insight into a world that 99.9% of us will never see. Much love from back home in Brooklyn.
What Satan meant for his harm, God can use for good! đ (Gen. 50:20) Mr. Franzese has a unique inroad that most donât have. And he certainly has the forgiven background that prevents almost anyone from being able to say, âBut MY stuff is so much worse than yours...â I find the whole thing quite fascinating. Meanwhile, Satan is half bald from tearing his hair out over THIS one. đ Well...euphemistically speaking. I, too, am fascinated by his stories and before now I had ZERO interest in the âmob worldâ.
Iâve been watching Michealâs videos for ages. Half Italian fellow New Yorker, and love the history the stories provide. Keep âem coming Micheal. And many prayers for you and your family in your hard times (and your good)
Thank you for that last message.. when the going gets tough the tough get going..
Hey Michael LOVE YOUR CHANNEL! I've been following up on you for a few years now and I was really excited but to hear about your podcast. I would really love to hear more about your earlier days as a soldier. I know you may not be able to go too deep into it but it would be really interesting. Also can't wait for your sit down with Sammy
Michael, you need to get in the kitchen and show us how to cook an authentic Italian meal.
YESSSSS
I'm Italian, I wanna see how HE does it!!

Thank you Michael. Enjoy the shows you offer. You are a very upbeat and positive man. Thank you again. I look forward to all of your stories.
The tone of your voice, the way you relate your messages, very inspirational and motivational. I was watching a Henry Hill interview and my God the way you come across as opposed to Henryâs outcome is a complete difference, they should of made a movie about you, you totally overcame and changed your life around! Definitely inspirational! I didnât know who you were but I stumbled upon some of your videos and now I canât stop watching and listening! So educated and humble and I can listen to those stories for days! Please continue all your content is amazing! đđ»đđ»đđ»
Hope you and your family have a great Christmas Michael, God bless
When you hear that music intro, you know youâre in for a good time! Always a pleasure watching your videos Michael !
Michael is such a charismatic guy who is honest and sincere his online business is destined for great success keep up the good work
I just love your videos sir and you wisdom i feel like im talking to my wise grandpa please keep the stories coming btw i miss my grandpa so this helps
Loving all the content !đ bought the book for my uncle as a present during Xmas as he is a born again Christian and I'm so eager to hear his opinion. He's also been through a lot of struggles so I'm sure he can relate in ways.. keep up the amazing work đ
I wish I could sit down and listen to you talk for hours, great storytelling and depth.
No matter how intense your stories are, you always find a way to encourage us to learn & grow. With Great Appreciation, Many Thanks!
Like everything in life there may be advantages being a mafia man but nothing is gained without some form of hard work Michael
Whoever said illegal was the easy way out
Couldnât understand the mechanics, and the workings of the underworld, granted

Ive always been fascinated by the mobster life and because of you we can get a depth look into that life. Thank you Michael!!!
Love this channel
I'm going to have to order your book
I've been watching these videos daily. đ
It's so interesting to be able to get this kind of insight into the world of organized crime. I love tuning in and enjoying these stories with you!
Merry Xmas Michael!Keep up the great stories about the mob!I love listening to em because I've always been fascinated with the mafia and mobsters!
IDC what I'm doing here in Vegas I see franzese forget about it
Inspirational brother đđŒ My life is nowhere near as extreme as yours but I did do time in jail and grew up on a rough council estate in Birmingham U.K.. Iâve now completely change my life around and I can relate to someone whoâs took them negatives and now turned it to positives. All the best brother great content đđŒđđŒ
This is so perfect thank you!!
I love the story. I love that it's told in the same voice and inflection that I heard around the Sunday dinner table growing up.
Great story, can totally relate with the car filled with smoke and as a nonsmoker rolling down the window then get screamed at because it's now freezing in the car.đ€
Wow 3 minutes that's a new record, glad you uploaded Michael, good weekend and happy holidays.
@@michaelfranzese Thank you sir, i enjoy the life lessons.
I love this story! You tell us how it was being a mobster and what you did during the day in the life! Tells us a lot tbh.
You quietly radiate stability and goodness. We need these attributes in our society. Thank you.
Reading blood convenant right now, bought it for my self for christmas, greetings to you and your family. God bless.
Would love to see celebrity guests on this channel. I think itâll elicit tons of great conversations and content.
Thanks Michael. Appreciate the video and more importantly the positive message at the end. Take care and be safe.
Could listen to your stories all day, great content. So fascinating
I read the title too fast and for some reason I read âday in the life of a lobsterâ and saw Michael... it took me a solid second to figure it out lmao
I will definitely be looking forward to buying "I'll make you an offer you can't refuse".
Hi Michael, love seeing your videos and joined your crew some time ago. Really appreciate your story and what you do for your crew
Michael you are big inspiration.Good bless you in the new 2021!
Michael, one video Iâd love to see you do would be to talk about the Mafiaâs ârulesâ and how closely they actually stuck to them. I think a lot of what fascinates people about the mob is the âuomo dâonoreâ aspect, for instance that the mob would not involve themselves in drugs, engage in contract killings (except on their own members) or kill civilians or cops for any reason. Iâd be really interested to hear if these rules were kept/enforced, and what defined a âcivilianâ when dealing with the mob.
Have a great Christmas Micheal
I love your sit downs and the way you speak from the heart. God Bless you!
Sorry I missed this a few days ago. The channel is amazing and gets better and better. Havenât been working because of the pandemic so not as many gifts this year for my son but we are healthy so thatâs what matters. I hope you and the family are having a great end to the year Michael.
This year has been a rough one to say the least bit prayer and Gods grace will get us all through it. Much love and God bless xoxo

It's a scientific and logical impossibility. Please don't let that pass you over. Think about it. And let the historical evidence for the resurrection of Jesus Christ speak for itself, instead of rejecting it by blind faith.
Real G. Awesome stories. Better than any âshowâ on at the moment. Thanks for the content!
I really enjoy all you've had to share since I found your channel. I can't get enough of it.
I am obsessed with researching facts about the mob and youâre channel is something that I listen to while Iâm am researching
