I could listen to this guy all day long. It’s refreshing to hear from someone who’s really lived the life and stayed humble. It’s obvious he has nothing to prove. Again Dodge you get the true story and show how interested and respectful you are. I’ve said it before many times, you yourself would be a great person to sit and chat to about your own life experiences. Without blowing smoke, you’re the best podcaster in the game. 😊 well done to you and your tight team.

Genuinely probably the best interview you've had to date, and you've had some great interviews. No disrespect to the UK gangsters, but this guy comes from a whole different world. You can tell just from the odd smirk and grin we have no idea how big he really was in the mob

@WangPaste 3 ай бұрын

@tomz5704 Exactly. The mob left the earners to bring in the money and used the thuggish gangsters to dish out the beatings and do the hits... Michael must have been involved in a hit though or he wouldn't have been made... he can't admit to it as he's not got immunity from prosecution but he tells you enough for you to work it out. This guy could start a toilet cleaning business and grow it into something huge, he's just got that business acumen.
