      @Carolynn Markiewicz I 100% believe God had His hand in this man's life. The Mafia life is a corrosive life, but a life with God and Christ as number 1 is the best life. I am thankful I never went into this business and I''ve seen how God has saved many people out of the organized crime/drug business world. It's a true blessing to know that Jesus loves each of us so much that He went to the Cross and died for us sins so that we may not have to suffer in Hell and try to justify our transgression. That's our amazing God above. May God has mercy on us.

      which really draws my attention is how he adapts to the situation and in a way mirrors the guest's behaviour. f.e, michael keeps saying "patrick" in the midst of speaking so patrick does that too, (saying michael's name). he is very socially aware and that shows.

In these cases they "strike a deal" and I am pretty sure that the deal was related to the Russian-Jewish Maffia witch which this asshole was involved in: they actually gave up all the other Italian families because the new Maffia clan had to take over New York. That's why all the other Italians died except this MoFo! The case against him was nothing but a smokescreen - it was then dropped when things quieted down!

    I love how he keeps calling his interviewer by name. "Well, I'll tell you this Patrick" or "You know what happened Patrick, was.." He's not just doing an interview, he makes you feel like he's talking to you, just you, directly. It is the kind of thing that makes people feel important, and its a subtle power move. The interviewer already admires him but he is gaining respect out of him by making the interview feel personal. You get the feeling that he would talk to anyone like that. A random store clerk, a mailman, a child. You always remember people who remember your name. He makes you want to be interested in him because he is showing he is interested in you. It is no wonder he got to where he was in the life and one of the few people to make it out. Knowing business is one thing but knowing business and knowing people and people's behavior will take you so much further. Fascinating person.

      I think he probably isn't wearing shoes because he's chilling in his home. And it looks pretty nice, so he probably doesn't want to hear a bunch of shit from his wife.

      @@iggyblitz8739 You dont need to admire someone's life to admire someone. You can admire a con-man's charisma but not the lifestyle itself. It's natural to be interested in someone's characteristic without necessarily liking them. I admire Michael's honesty and calm nature even though i dont like him having a criminal past, making millions a week with a gas tax scheme, and worked in a brutal enviroment.
