I’m a 53 year old gal from the Midwest. I feel like a little kid sitting on the floor cross legged totally entranced by these stories. Love it, love it, love it. Thank you so much for sharing your stories. Respect Sir!!!
The difference is, your knees are going to hurt and crack when you try to get up. I have used one of Michael’s videos on being in solitary for a class I teach
Indeed. I looked at this video and saw 44 minutes and wondered if I wanted to sit here for that amount of time. Now, I finished this one and looking for a part 2. :)
I enjoy every minute listening to these guys.... I'm a southern red neck from the ground up,, I have great respect for anyone any culture with honest hearts,.. yeah I know people ain't perfect, but an honest heart transcends
It's a classic unforgettable movie .chaz wrote an i think directed it . He is amazing . Great to see him in everything he plays . Was watching a older mob movie about when he was mob boss everything he is in I've watched
I still remember catching A Bronx Tale late at night many years ago, it's a great film and really left an impression on me. I still remember nice little moments like waiting to see if a woman will open a car door for you.
Now it's 'Will a woman leave the door to a store open for you if you're behind them?' Some women will keep door open for you, others will let door slam in your face as they walk through first.
These two just mesh together so well. Love them! The stories are just UNBELIEVABLE and unheard-of. I never get tired of listening to the bad ass @michaelfranzese. 😂
Wrong!!! Got to put in work, for the cause! I do think... You never name drop its that guy or that fella! Quick way to get wacked! You must love others before your self Good or bad! Remember dont fuck anyone over unless they fuck you or others that have stood for you! Not the ones that play with others or their money! People do dumb shit not knowing what or who they are messing with sometimes! I stopped letting others into my life i dont help others any more unless they are every day average people or children! Made that mistake 1 time never again lost everything besides family and my life! I move different and love for a disstance
Chazz, i would love to see you talk a bit about your voice acting roles. I'm very curious about how you came to voice act in Call of Duty Black Ops 2. Also Hoodwinked! which is one of my favorite animated films.
Great video Chazz. I love listening to Michael talk. His voice is therapeutic and relaxing. It’s crazy to think that he spent a good portion of his life hanging around and dealing with hardcore criminals and serial killers.
Well.. he was a hardcore criminal etc. he just doesn’t talk about it like that, because the deeds are not yet time-barred. Always keep it in mind. They did what they had to do.
A retired ATF friend was assigned quite a while in NYC . A lady in his apartment was always alone so he and his wife invited her to dinner. The restaurant staff was very attentive to their every need- enough that it was noticed by him. Later he learned she was the spouse of a known Made Guy. No doubt he had to write up a CYA report.
Loved the chat and the connection between you two. One thing did make me feel very sad. That was when you said those that say I can’t do it I have nothing… you say to them I don’t want to hear it. Look at this guy… Michael is so different to those people. He was born into a crime family which provided all he needed and gave him a great life style and ten million life’s worth of great stories to tell and character to be. Yes he then did jail time. And was lucky enough to to meet the woman he loves. Which brought about his change to life. Even his jail stores he tells of great moments of luck. But after getting out he then had a great story to tell that the worlds wanted to hear. Most others from that life are dead now so he’s the top dog. Even in the life he was lucky from the gas money man approaching him. All this together makes for one fascinating story that has made him millions. Yes well done to him. But please please don’t compare this to someone born into nothing at all. Where nothing happened. Other than they were poor had nothing to do and were given not one single break in life. Or any they did get was of tiny significance. They grow up and had super low end jobs and could never make any money even if they stayed in just to pay the rent and not waste money. So they never really get to meet anyone outside of their apartment and even get to see the lucky breaks. They have no money, just work, pay rent, work, pay rent… Or for some unemployed pay rent.. They have no story nothing to sell. Just nothing. Do you see the difference. It’s not right to compare those people to Michael or even yourself. You had a great father, then the mob hit you saw to give you the story, then deniro.. Yes you make your life from that. But life gave you that to make something from. It’s really not right to say if Michael or we can do this anyone can. Michael led an extraordinary life. Those you say ‘I don’t want to hear it’ That’s the problem no does. Because they have nothing worth hearing. But I think they are the ones that deserve an ear all the more. Yet Michael will have literally millions more ears for his next pod cast. They will still have none. It’s and unfair comparison in an already unfair world. Anyway just had to mention that. But again loved watching you guys and great work. I do also love and admire your background story in life chazz it’s incredibly up lifting. All the best x
Chazz wow, i loved all your movies. being in my 20's I gravitated towards your movies. great show. didn't know you had a channel. thank you for hang out with us.
I'm not a criminal. I don't know any wise guys, but a admire both Chaz and Michael because they are using their life experiences to do good in this world and there is something to be said for that.
My old timers God bless there souls ...one of the first things they taught me was never mention any of their names ,just act cool and let them know what happen when I see them in person
Wonderful Sit down Thank you Chaz and Michael, you guys were fantastic and I really hope you two will do it again. The chemistry is amazing. Thanks again guys and be safe and stay healthy! Much love ❤
"Do you know who I am?" Doesn't fly because it's a bluff. If he was important would not ask that question because people would know who he was already. "Do you know who I'm with?" Is okay because it's genuine and humble. It means "I'm not important, but I'm a friend of somebody important." Authenticity and humility is respected as a result. Great lesson there. Thanks guys. I learn a lot from you two every time I listen. Palminteri and Franzese, what a combo!
The Best Part is I JUST GO TO THE CORNER LOOK AT THIS MAMA LUCCA ASKING FOR A PICTURE I KNOW MR PALMINTIERI WOULDN'T DO SUCH A THING I SAY CHAZZ I'LL DROP MY PANTS FOR THIS PRICK 🤣🍎🍒🇺🇸🏅✌️🙏💯🎯
Thank you for being amongst those giving purpose and joy to an otherwise ephemeral and painful existence all of us share. From the bottom of my heart; God bless you, Mr. Palminteri! Amen!
Crazy Crazy to think Michael's Dad, Sonny, could see his son as an extremely intelligent man and pushed him into that Lifestyle. But then again, he had so much passion for La Costa Notras, he was probably proud as hell... He probably thought anything less was a disrespectful occupation.
GREAT interview! I Just saw your one man show last week here in San Antonio and it was EXCELLENT! I used to live in Brooklyn about a 15 minute walk from the Gemini Lounge, so I know where you're coming from. Keep doin' what you do 'C'.
Michael - they walk you into a room and one time I wasn't sure if I was gonna come out Chazz - really is this something you can tell us about? Michael - well I was in the gas business... Me - oh I know I've heard this a million times but one more time won't hurt 😂🤣😁
Hi Chazz! Just found your channel through Michael. Love the episodes sir! I would love to hear your thoughts on A Guide To Recognizing Your Saints. It was the first movie I remember seeing you, and your performance was riveting as Dito's father.
The Appalachin meeting at Joe Barbara's was basically Vito Genovese's doing. He wanted everyone to recognize that he was now the main power in the Mob, along with Carlo Gambino, and not Lucky or Frank Costello, who he had just months prior had the Chin try to kill. It was stupid and and basically just Vito pounding his chest.
Chaz, you are such an amazing, natural actor. You remind me a lot of my favorite actor, James Cagney. He was asked one time what made him such a terrific actor. He said, "Know your lines, look the other person in the eye, and say your line." Then he said, ""But mean it!" That's you Chaz. And how come nobody ever mentions how good you are on "Blue Bloods?" I love you on that show. It's my favorite show. The chemistry between you and Tom Selleck is perfect. Thanks for the great entertainment Chaz, God bless.
Just watched Chazz as Angelo Bruno in Legend again recently. He did great. But my favorite with Jelly in Analyze That was when he was asked about his trial he said “yeah the witness didn’t testify. He stabbed himself in the back 3 times and threw himself over a bridge”.
Mike is a very very sharp guy. Highly intelligent. There’s a reason he’s one of the only men still standing.
He's a talker, the end
@@glenleon323what do you know about him?
“Now yous can’t leave”
One of my favorite lines.👍
I’m a 53 year old gal from the Midwest. I feel like a little kid sitting on the floor cross legged totally entranced by these stories. Love it, love it, love it. Thank you so much for sharing your stories. Respect Sir!!!
The difference is, your knees are going to hurt and crack when you try to get up. I have used one of Michael’s videos on being in solitary for a class I teach
My favorite thing in life is sitting in front of pops listening an the girls sitting at us listening it's the best
@@silverstar4289 you admire....a government informant.... AKA. RAT.
no offense intended but we are the same age and when you said "gal form the Midwest" I got a little hot and bothered
@@iec7587
Ha ha ha, well bless your heart. 😉
I could watch a 5 hour talk between those two guys... time flys when you listen to them
Indeed. I looked at this video and saw 44 minutes and wondered if I wanted to sit here for that amount of time. Now, I finished this one and looking for a part 2. :)
Chazz and Michael are legends.. love it when they come together great chemistry with these 2 😎
Legends OK 🐀 rats not legend scum
I enjoy every minute listening to these guys.... I'm a southern red neck from the ground up,, I have great respect for anyone any culture with honest hearts,.. yeah I know people ain't perfect, but an honest heart transcends
@@brenttaylor7856Right.
A Bronx tale is one of my top 5 movies, thanks to you Chaz!!!
It's a classic unforgettable movie .chaz wrote an i think directed it . He is amazing . Great to see him in everything he plays . Was watching a older mob movie about when he was mob boss everything he is in I've watched
De Niro directed the movie
Sorry Peggy you’re right!! I got mixed up and of course Chaz wrote it.
@@jonalexdennisChaz wrote the movie...you idiots give too much credit to directors and not enough to the ppl who actually write and create the shit
got nothing on Clive Warren
Your chemistry together is fantastic. Hoping for many more sit downs together between you two
I wouldn't call this a sit down because of the negative implications...let's call it a meeting of shineboxes
ujygikuhkhukhuk
"SIT DOWNS"...???? YOU HAVE WATCHED TOO MANY MOVIES SIR....THE THINGS THESE "GUYS"....ARE "TALKING" ABOUT DO NOT EXIST !!!!!!
Enjoyed both of you! 100 percent Sicilian, here. God bless you and your family, gentlemen!
Michael is not Sicilian/Italian. He's Napolitan/Italian but I get your point.
I love your podcasts Chazz and you and Michael together are gold.
how are these guys talking, and not drinking wine or a bourbon?
One of the best talk shows I've seen in a long time.Thanks Mr. Chaz.
I could listen to you guys talk for hours! Please get Michael back 💗
Absolutely !!!!!
bring him along with squiggy, bobby lambchops and sandy blue eyed 😄
I still remember catching A Bronx Tale late at night many years ago, it's a great film and really left an impression on me. I still remember nice little moments like waiting to see if a woman will open a car door for you.
Unlock it
Now it's 'Will a woman leave the door to a store open for you if you're behind them?'
Some women will keep door open for you, others will let door slam in your face as they walk through first.
When I went on a date, the woman opened the door like in the movie, we`ve been together for years!!
Too young to relate but I still left a like. I wish I could've had memories like that
Chaz should be making a movie about Michael’s life as a top earner!
I second this
A lightweight in the mob amazing
These two just mesh together so well. Love them! The stories are just UNBELIEVABLE and unheard-of. I never get tired of listening to the bad ass @michaelfranzese. 😂
“Everybody thinks they’re made. Everybody’s made right?”

I can listen to these 2 guys talk 24 hours A-day. I'm hanging on every word it's just so fascinating
24 hours a day! If they heard you say that the would laugh and say get a life!
Chazz is definitely one of the coolest men to ever walk the earth
Of course my cuz is s legendary
I could just sit here watching this all day! Today is Sunday and it's great to just chill out and listen to 2 iconic men share their thoughts 😀❤
The bar scene with the bikers where Chazz locks the door and says, now yous can't leave. Great scean.
A retired ATF friend was assigned quite a while in NYC . A lady in his apartment was always alone so he and his wife invited her to dinner. The restaurant staff was very attentive to their every need- enough that it was noticed by him.

Michael led an extraordinary life.
Those you say ‘I don’t want to hear it’
That’s the problem no does.
Because they have nothing worth hearing.
But I think they are the ones that deserve an ear all the more.
Yet Michael will have literally millions more ears for his next pod cast. They will still have none.
It’s and unfair comparison in an already unfair world.
Anyway just had to mention that.
But again loved watching you guys and great work.
I do also love and admire your background story in life chazz it’s incredibly up lifting.

Oh my God so great! Chazz and Michael have great chemistry. Funny, informative, and entertaining!
Great. Totally sincerity. Never long enough when you two shoot the breeze together.
FUN FACT: Michael is older than Chaz
Yeah literally by 1 year to be exact !
@@RoyaltyHealth1 but both are so handsome. To look at either,they don't look over 55
he 10 years younger
Michael aged slow. Dude still looks in his 50s.
2 years
That scene from Bronx Tale is a classic. When I send my daughter to her room I tell her, “Now yous can’t leave.” 😂
Mr. Franzese is an earner and an inspiration by all means!
Pacino is an AMAZING actor....
Chaz Palmenteri as Sonny Black👀
I love seeing you in movies and TV.
Bonano on Godfather of Harlem is classic❤️
He would a been better than madsen for sure
I love to see you in the movies. You bring a certain level of old Hollywood class into every character you play.
My old timers God bless there souls ...one of the first things they taught me was never mention any of their names ,just act cool and let them know what happen when I see them in person

Always such a wonderful pod cast
This needs more likes. Love listening to these two-z guy-z.
One of the few pearls my old man gave me when I was a kid growing up
"Never mess with another man's wife"
My favorite podcast. You are worth your weight in gold Chazz.
Great conversation! Youse guys are awsome!
Great video Chazz! You and Michael are incredible!
Michael is a real Gentleman. Chazz is lovely. Thank you so much for the pleasure you bring to us as an audience. G‘d bless
The best part was when Al Pacino gave Johnny depp the Christmas present of a few hundred and then asked to Borrow it back
two WORLD CLASS storytellers
Truly love what Micheal says at very end! U are who hang out with!!
Much respect!! 👈🏼 hopefully if get to go to his show!!
Chazz, as an Englishman, your bit in Legend was brilliant. I know it's unlikely you'll see this but, well done. Brilliant. 👍🏻
I saw it thanks
🙏I see everything
Oh brilliant, I don't believe it. 😍 When are you next in the UK touring? I'm from the north but anywhere is good?
Chazz thankyou for years of entertainment sir .
God bless.

Thank u sir

Excellent stuff, Mr. Palminteri.
Kids gotta know the legit history of the old days.
love these 2 guys together! Now yous can't leave!
Awesome interview thank you for bringing Michael and yes kids are real thing thank you so much😎👍
Love love love to hear these stories! I’m so amazed that Michael is my brother in Christ! God only changes.
You guys should have a weekly show, just shooting the shit!
Sometimes It’s better to keep things special
Both these guys are great. I’ll listen to Micheal any time. The guy is incredible.
Watched both parts and thoroughly enjoyed it
Amazing conversation. Michael is well balanced and inspirational. And Chaz seems to be between Hollywood and mafia street stuff
You can tell Chaz is affiliated. Michael has that calm demeanor but you know he didn’t play any games.
Crazy Crazy to think Michael's Dad, Sonny, could see his son as an extremely intelligent man and pushed him into that Lifestyle. But then again, he had so much passion for La Costa Notras, he was probably proud as hell... He probably thought anything less was a disrespectful occupation.
Very impressive how both persons exchanged in harmony and great courtesy.

A Bronx Tale was a masterpiece of a movie too. Chazz played that roll masterfully.
Quality, not quantity. I happen to agree with that. Great talk. Much respect due. God bless.
Thanking you both ~ Chazz & Michael ~=> appreciate your stories & what I can learn ~+> Cheerz
Michael - they walk you into a room and one time I wasn't sure if I was gonna come out
