I’m an ex con and since I found Michael franzese and started listening and taking note of his words and his wisdom I am back on the right path I owe him a lot and want to thank him personally

This happened in the 60's. I was young and driving an old beater late one night and my car died but had enough momentum to coast into a gas station. I noticed a guy on a motorcycled at the pump in front of me...but I did not take notice of what he was wearing. Back then they had gas station attendants who would service your car on the spot....and my car was smoking indicating it needed attention. The station attendant was in the station (I could see him) but did NOT come out. I figured he was busy with something and would come out as soon as he was through and I had no choice but to wait since my car would not start. After a while, I noticed that the jacket on the man on the motorcycles said "Hell's Angels." Then I realized that was why the attendant did not come out. The Hell's Angels guy got off his bike and came back to my car and tapped on my window. I rolled it down a crack. He said, "I see your having trouble with your car." I said "Yes, it just died." He told me to wait until it cooled down and he would get it started. I did what he said. He pushed my car to the side and waited until the car cooled down. Then he filled the radiator, suggested that I get anti-freeze for it, and told me to try to start it. The car turned over and began to chug again. I thanked him profusely and offered to pay him. He smiled and refused the money and got me on my way. I know the Hell's Angels are tough guys...but they have their moments and I was glad when one of them was around!

I cant believe im watching the mafia and hells angels talk about modern politics this is a crazy time to live in.

My daughter was in children’s hospital in Dallas tx and the Angels came in and seen the kids and brought toys. It was amazing and I shook their hands and man the kids need that. I would thank them guys again.

As a truck driver I've run across almost every MC I can think of at one time or another over the road. Never had a problem with any of them. Can't say the same thing about highway patrol.

Whether you like George Christie or not, he is a personable guy, and always gives a great interview. This is one of the few times I remember a guest asking so many questions to the interviewer, which made it a genuine conversation, in which both guys displayed genuine interest in the other's experiences. Dynamite show.

What does that say when a mafia and hells angel boss, sit together and critique the criminality of government. Surely this is food for thought.

A truly respectful conversation between two well spoken gentlemen who come from a day where things like honor and respect mattered. A+ interview!

It's still mental to me that an ex mafia boss has a you tube channel but I'll be buggered if it's not one of the most interesting channels on here. Michael, you're a legend for the right reasons 😊 (sorry NOT boss, apparently this is very important. Can't say it affects my life but ppl are really cranky about it)

This is an amazing conversation. To watch a former Mafia Boss and Head of the Hells Angels sit down and have a conversation of their days in their organizations is just priceless.

The intelligence of these two is astounding. So well spoken without speaking a damn thing. Well done gentlemen.

First I need to explain I post on my husband Frank's KZfaq acct! I don't know George, but was friends on Facebook with Sonny Barger and he did something that really touched my heart! Hubby and I don't have kids we rescue stray and abused animals and when one of our dogs crossed The Rainbow Bridge we received the kindest message from Mr. Barger and his wife! Gods speed to you both! Patricia Gambino Harrington

True story about a Hells Angels encounter... I'm British with Italian heritage on my father side, as a consequence I really got into the old classic Italian Scooters and the smart "mod" way of dressing. Back in the 90's when I was a teenager, a group of us teens were going to a scooter rally on the South Coast of England, which involved a long ride down there on our little scooters. Now vintage scooters don't go very fast, and whilst we were in the slow lane on a motorway (3 lane highway), a bunch of 15-20 guys on sports bikes, all dressed like Power Rangers thought it would be funny to come and take the p*ss out of our little scooters. They were riding inches away from us, giving us the bird & hand-job signals and generally being intimidating. Next thing, we heard the unmistakable thrum of Harleys and turned round to see 5 patched up Hells Angels ride up from behind and then in amongst the group of sports bikes. We thought we were gonna get our heads kicked in, but it was the opposite. The Hells Angels basically got the Power Rangers to f*ck off, then rode with us (at our speed) to where we exited the motorway and gave us the thumbs up as we waved them goodbye. The HA and us scooter kids looked the complete antithisis of each other, however, I like to think it was a shared love of our respective two wheel machines and the open road that made them to do what they did. They didn't have to take the time out to watch our backs and I've had immense respect to them to this very day.

George is 100% stand up and has the greatest stories. Can't wait for part 2!

This is a amazing conversation between two friends. It’s refreshing to watch a honest conversation. Thanks for allowing us into your lives. 👏🇨🇦

Great interview. Brings back memories of when Mr. Christie was released from TI. The officers were giving him a hard time bringing his personal belongings out and I was given a call and asked some questions about what he was capable of. He is a class act and although we never met face to face, I was happy to help out in a small way smoothing things out.

This was hands down one of the most fascinating and interesting sit-downs I've ever watched on KZfaq and I can not wait to watch the second part! Thanks Michael.

Mr. Christie is a legend indeed! thank you Michael for bringing him on. He’s a great storyteller!

I'd trust either of these guys more than the head of the FBI or the CIA at this point. Seriously!

Bear in mind, that these guys are talking about what they got put in trial for doing…..but the reality is that’s only a tiny fraction of what they’re guilty of. Today, they’re nice, affable, gentlemen, but in the day they were cold blooded. Kudos for finding a way out, but for those in the comments who are gushing praise, remember the pain they’ve caused.

This was a great conversation and I can't wait for Part 2. It is so interesting to see the two organizations side by side! Thanks for this one Michael.

Mr. Franzese, this was an EXELLENT conversation. I can't wait for part 2.

I'm shocked that these 2 men have both left their previous lifestyles and survived. Glad to see they have turned their lives around.

I could listen to all this man’s interviews and stories. Many blessings and Gods provision over you Mr. Franzese

I appreciate you having these conversations publicly. It brings perspective to the world and it is much needed.

I also served time in Terminal Island in the south yard F unit from 2007-2013. I swear just hearing this conversation with Michael and George just brings me back, I met so many big players in the feds that taught me so much knowledge, I just wish I could of met these guys!!!

To think how these guys have seriously turned their lives around for the better and even when they were the "bad guys", they were still less corrupt than today's politicians. They almost never leave their "life" Much respect to these guys!

I could listen to these two talk all day. They’re so interesting and I bet they have so many stories!

So glad to see Part 2 coming soon! Excellent interview, Michael! I’ve seen George Christie on several shows. He’s intelligent, articulate, interesting and has led a life so similar to yours. Great work!

This was an awesome conversation. I got the vibe that both guys really enjoyed talking with one another and it made the conversation flow so smooth.

I could listen to these guys talk for hours. You gotta appreciate listening to people like these guys

Thanks Michael! Thanks George! Very educational. Have a Blessed Day!!

The "PODFATHER" is back!!💯

I'm from Oxnard. The Hells Angel's ran a club called Nicolbys in Downtown Ventura. The best club I've ever been in and they ran it smoothly.

Michael has always intrigued me since I was in highschool in the early 80's. I really enjoy his channel now

Franzese is the man. Truth be told, right here. 👍

Micheal I'm so glad that you turned your life into such a positive direction. For people to become motivated to be better people.

Great conversation, you can see the mutual respect these two had for each other. Also, you can see the relief that they're both doing something else today

Our government is just so scary seeing his corrupt it is at times. There needs to be more independent investigations into these politicians.

One of your best Mike...casual and sincere back and forth..George looks great!

Great conversation going on. Alot of similarities between the two lives. Thank you for sharing 👍

This is one of your better interviews, if not the best. You guys go back and forth very respectfully.

What an amazing conversation about two different lifestyles, both legends of different worlds, both of these men hold a degree of respect most won’t understand! Awesome conversation!!

Thanks for sharing Michael. George is a good dude. It’s an honor to know him.

It's cool to see you guys sit down together! Blessings to you guys for being changed men with alot to share.

This is no doubt a great sit down. George seems like a genuine person & you both vibed off each other so well. You talked to each other like you are family members. Can't wait for part 2.

What a great interview. Of all your episodes this is probably one of my favorites.

The way you speak Michael is just so fluent. I really respect or idk a good word for it but its super cool to me to watch you carry a conversation like this and the time and effort you put to ask certain things and pay attention. Ya big fan of this ive watched a couple but ill make sure to sub keep it up love to learn more about being a good man

Right arm George, you rock my man. Much love from Canada

Riveting interview...and it's obvious that Michael & George have genuine respect for each other. I could watch this conversation for hours.

Excellent content Michael, I feel so good for both of you that you've turned your lives around for the better. As you get older I think you get wiser and certain things become more important. God bless you

One of the best sit-downs ever. Christie is brilliant! So viewable.

Michael, George....2 men I have a very high respect for. Thank you for doing this sitdown together.

Hey George I met you 45 years ago your the reason for my motorcycle addiction goodto see you again

Two absolute gentleman. Class conversation. Lot of mutual respect. These guys are street guys at their core and it's fascinating to see the understandings they share without using words.

Remember he came to the school i graduated from,on many occasions. He was at my graduation and he was randomly pictured in one of my graduation photos when i was walking off of the stage. At the time, I didn't know him,or cared to know him, he was just a random guy at the time (in my eyes). Graduated from NHS. We have a movie/documentary that made it to IMDb called "Love Goes Public". About 2 years after i graduated high school (i graduated in 2014), i realized how big he was and who he were. To this day i can't believe he came to the school i graduated from on (many) occasions. NHS was like a performing arts schools disguised as a public school. We had campus for life, we went on trips for free, every Friday, we got tickets to Auburn games for free. At the time,our principal son played for Auburn university with Cam Newton,then they went to the NFL. Our principal would always get her son to bring the Auburn stars to our school and set up basketball games with them. We also played grade vs grade basketball,6th vs 7th grader, 8th vs 9th you get the point.We had people that was currently during life in prison come up to the school and talk with us, (supervised of course). Looking back, I realized i didn't soak up everything I could've have and how special the school is that i graduated from. Michael told the entrie school so many stories in the auditorium. He had the entire school locked into his grasp.Idk if it was because the things he did, and witnessed but the teachers and students was in awe. To this day, i still don't know how my school got him to come speak and hang around with us, even came to our graduation in 2014. One day (a few years after highschool), i seen a video of him and my mouth dropped,i was thinking to myself (THAT'S THE GUY!!!!!)This video had over a million views i think. It was then, when i realized who he was, how big he was and couldn't believe he came to our school on many occasions and he came to our graduation in 2014. I regret not knowing who he was at the time and the "Mafia" was irrelevant to me, but I was slightly familiar with it. I know he's not the biggest known celebrity in the world, but it was an honor to meet him. He done terrible things he's not proud of , but he's a changed man and i wish i can meet him through as an adult eyes.So many questions I could've asked. Who he is on video is exactly the same man that came to our school about 10 years ago. He's a good guy, i wish i knew how my school pulled this off, he's a great pubic speaker and he's good with children and teenagers .I hope God keep on blessing this man .

I love George’s stories

Fascinating conversation I can't wait for part two! Much respect for you gentlemen!! Thank you 💛

Blows my mind How these guys " sound like they're the nicest men in the world!

I could listen to these guys all day.

Mike traveled all over the world for 10+ yrs preaching, teaching, sharing his story. I was with him in Lompoc for 3 yrs. Super humble approachable guy is is exactly as he comes across on this channel. I think this was the best business decision he made so that he can be more effective and be a great husband Best channel on tube 🎉🎉🎉

This was such an interesting interview Mike. I hope you both do more interviews. I could sit and listen to you both talk all day.

Wow.. what an awesome episode. Can't wait for part 2

I’m supposed to be getting ready for Easter brunch with my family, yet here I am completely invested in watching this interview. 👀

Thank you, Michael! Cannot wait part 2

Just in time for lunch. Thank you Michael!

I loved this sit down Michael keep doing what you are doing. You are doing an excellent job brother. God bless you sir

I think it's valuable when people like Michael point out the flaws with the justice system, and how there are people who feel the need to break the law in order to uphold the law, they feel the need to weaponize the system to go after people they don't like. It's quite revealing when even former members of the mafia can recognize the mafia-like enterprise that plagues our country today. But for us Christian men it should come as no surprise, you can't change human nature, but what you can do is accept responsibility over your own life, and model yourself after somebody who is free of these flaws.

Great interview Mr. Franzese. Hope you are doing well :)

Thanks Michael, one great video after another ! God bless 🙏 🙂 Paulie from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺

Top notch interview. Both sides. Straight to the point. Can't wait for part #2.

Mike you are an inspiration in more ways than I can count. God bless you and your family 🙏 ✝️ 🇺🇸

outlaw chronicles on KZfaq with George is a hell of a series

I have been dreaming about this sit down. Not going to miss it!

Thanks for sharing your stories!

I remember me and my dad were passing through Morgan hill, California and we saw a huge group bikers going into some warehouse. My dad was very into motorcycles at the time and he said “ damn those are some clean choppers.” As we drove by closer we saw the hells Angels logo on all of them. That shit was crazy.

This was GREAT ! Can't wait for Part 2

Another fascinating episode! God bless to you and your family!

I'm from Ventura and George Christie is a great guy wishing him the best

Two good men here. They’re both real and it shows in their words and actions. They were outlaws and now they’re just men with knowledge trying to earn a living and pass on to those willing to listen their experiences and advice. God bless them both.

Respect to Michael and Family. From PGH.

Great back and forth, the government is going to watch both of you for life. Over 30 years ago they told me they was going to watch me for life and they have done what they say. The code of silence has been the reason why, i think. Your show has me hooked

I love how these two me can have a talk like men and share a message of life that you can overcome your past and be a example that God has got a plan for everyone 🙏

Michael, I love that you always give praise to our father🙏 and I really enjoy your pods❤

I'm 30 years old, and I don't know anyone my age that trusts the government.

I lived in the southern California area, can't say i missed the chaos these 2 so willing embraced

I am completely out of my element listening to this conversation but Im here for it.

George Christie JR. is my most favorite person. Love & appreciate him sharing/telling his story. He’s lived many lives. I’ve been waiting for this colab for a while now, so I couldn’t be any more excited. Thanks for having him on. ❤️🙏🏽

I worked in Wall Stteet for over 40 years and much of that community IS an "economic danger to the community " !

I would trust these 2 guys to run this country in a heart beat! Awesome interview two brothers that can bring it in like that,is priceless!!

Very enjoyable and interesting conversations. One thing I have noticed is that the hosts and his guests are older and wiser. They have learned from their mistakes and are now walking the straight and narrow. Young criminals could learn a lot from these guys before embarking on a life of crime.

This has been by far my favorite sit-down.

HAPPY MONDAY EVERYONE!!!!! 🙏 LORD BE WITH YOU.

What a great conversation 👍 Michael seems to be a strong person owning values & respect! Truly an impressive personality 👏 There're obviously no more people like him nowadays. Thx & best from 🇩🇪 Munich... 😉

Thank You! Thank You! ❤😢❤ they been after me a long time:). Love you! Praise God!🎉😢🎉

Wow, I was completely locked in the entire 40 minutes...This is an absolutely incredible conversation to sit and watch. Thank you gentlemen for putting this together!

Absolutely need more with this man, one of the best episodes yet!

Been wanting the book Mafia Democracy and noticed it is sold out....Hope we can get it back in stock one day. Loved the Sitdown and I always find Michaels videos top notch. George Christie is very interesting to listen too.

My Uncle was a deputy in the small town, 6'8 long beard, ponytail, where our whole family lives and my mom tells this story where he randomly left his wife,. kid and everyone randomly and came back 2 years later with a hells angels vest and a bike. He had become a chief for them. He would come home every few months, while he was here and "active" he wouldn't speak about the stuff he did. later on when he fully moved back he would talk lightly about what his crew did without details and sayin "allegedly" a lot. also didn't allow phones to be on in his house. you had to cut them off and leave them outside in a waterproof box.
