@@EternalVirgin Such a fan I, are I.

I remember watching this interview years ago and really being impressed by Michael Francese but now knowing everything I know he is a scumbag liar snitch stool pigeon that never did 90% of the things he claimed to do. He ratted on the mafia, on his partner, and his father. His brother also snitched on their own dad. He never killed to make his bones. He sat down with the government and gave them information to avoid a long prison sentence and to keep his assets from being seized. And the only reason he was ever allowed into that life was out of respect for his father. He wasn't a street guy. He was a spoiled little brat that ran around using his father's name to profit. Sonny is not even his biological father. He's an adopted bastard with no idea who his real father was. And he's not allowed back in NY unless he's got a film production crew with them and armed security. Now he is a fake pastor hiding behind the Bible. What a clown 🤡

Yep even in answer's well done mike

We don't watch it for free.

You think Michael would be still alive if anything hes said in the last 15 years are true? He was making billions for the mob.. not millions. And hes still helping them even with his press tour and motivational speeches..

I'd subscribe immediately. I agreed with Martypants Magoo, the amount from the 1st weeks take changes every time he tells the story, but I still listen.

He could be reviewing mob movies, telling stories, answering questions. So many topics he can talk about, heck he could even do a cooking show on what monsters eat.

Best comment on this video. This comment should be pinned. 💯 All i gotta say is theres a reason why 2pac and mike were such close friends. They were both REALLY alot alike and had ALOT in common. Interesting that Tyson fight was rigged the night 2pac was killed..... They knew No one even mike couldn't protect Pac on such a busy MGM boxing night. Karma ALWAYS comes back around look where Suges at now. 🎯

I TOTALLY AGREE

You never lied. One of the most fascinating celebrity personalities of all time. Great comment!💯

I don't know that Mike is a good or bad guy today, how could you? You know him personally? Impressive? Jesus man, relax. You know who is impressive? A single mom who works and takes care of her kids, a first responder that risks his life for someone, a soldier that risks his life for his country, doctors, nurses, etc, etc. What is with people like you worshiping people you don't even know, especially someone like him who definitely has a checkered past. Again, not saying he's not an upstanding citizen now, I don't know the guy and none of you do either, but stop with the worshiping of celebrities for no other reason than you are a fan.

Well Cus was well respected as well. Not on Franzese level, butI have seen other interviews with both Mikes since this one. The stories are amazing. Tyson did Mike Franzese's podcast. In my opinion they get even more in depth.

Tyson is from Brownsville , next door neighborhood is east New York and next to that is Howard beach , look up the history of the mafia in that area and near by . Those who grew up in Brooklyn in the 70s 80s90s know that the Italian mafia was around ,serious like nypd. Gangs

Mike knows alot of mob history. The bosses, families, deaths etc. he is well read in history. Especially in history about powerful men. Conquerors, mob, boxing history etc. guy is a walking Encyclopedia.

Cuss was a well known Italian in the same area , so ...

It’s so good! Mike could literally get any guest he wants no ones going to say no

@@desiredausrap8153 You can tell Mike is asking questions because he wants to know the answer. He's obviously very interested in the topic of the mob and is throwing out names because he wants to know just to know. I think we can pick up on that and it's just really enjoyable to listen to.

Mike probably grew up hearing stories about this guy, especially since he was in the wrong side of the rails robbing and doing shit urchins do. These were the guys no one messed with no matter how tough you were in the streets. Edit: I realize looking up Michael as a hero during his crime career is wrong in itself. It's just amazing now, looking at him using it as an avenue to teach people that it was wrong, he did pick up things there that he valued though. Like never talk, be disciplined, be loyal to family, be faithful, carry yourself well, if you have to the lie to save a life etc etc. And to the point of him being an informant.
