Michael Franzese will deliver a once in a lifetime, and at times chilling, no holds barred insight from within one of history's most feared and violent families, events across The UK this summer. Each event will feature never heard before stories from Michael about his rise in the mafia. For tickets and more info check out michaelfranzesetour.com
Let's be honest here...
Only snitches live long enough to grow that much grey hair.
@@tegridyweed7863 His father Sonny Franzese was the oldest living Made Mafia Member, he spent almost half of his life in and out of prison and he was also the oldest living inmate in the federal system here in America. Sonny Franzese was one of the most respected men in the history of the American Italian Mafia because he died with a spotless record as far as being loyal to them. Sonny even Ok’d a hit on Michael because Michael left that life and that’s a no no in that life, that’s how much that life meant to him that he picked it over his own family. Sonny was able to be released from prison for 3 years before he died at the age of 103 which means he was in prison at he age of 100 before he got released. Lastly, court records here in America are public records meaning if anyone did anything or snitched on some one or cooperated with the FBI or whoever else, it is on file for anyone to find so that’s how people know who is legit and who isn’t, it’s called paperwork. Michael’s paperwork has confirmed everything he’s ever talked about or already admitted, there’s many people who just look for paperwork on people trying to catch them up in lies. This saying describes Sonny Franzese 100%…
“Beware of an old man in a profession where men usually die young.”
@@James_Edward59 sounds like a family of losers that did nothing but perpetuate the ever growing degeneracy of society... some legacy!
Massive snitch. And not a boss only made capo level
@@tegridyweed7863He never cooperated with the feds. You are looking at the real Michael Corleone that's who they compare him to. This man was making 10 million dollars a week yes it was illegal but you know this man was smart enough to stash some 💰 on the side. He beat the feds.
20 minutes with Franzese just isn't enough. I could listen to him tell stories about the life all day long. What a fascinating character.
He has his own channel, it’s called “Michael Franzese”
rat
He did a nice long podcast with Larry Lawton, another former mob-associated major criminal who now does everything he can to keep people from ending up in prison. Honestly my favorite interview of his.
What an evil POS. The working man is the tough guy. Shame on this vile garbage.
Well then you are in luck. He seems to do videos constantly about his life story.
I've seen Michael Franzese in multiple interviews now and every one is just as compelling as the last. Love listening to his stories.
It’s BS, he wasn’t a boss, he was a capo. He’s a rat too
I love Michael's interviews, fascinating, very wise man who changed his life.
I have been following Michael for about two years before he launched his own channel and website. He opens up the mafia life like no one else. He knows he’s damned lucky to be alive considering the life he was in.
whats his yt channel ???
@@roballister5269 Just put his name in the youtube search.
Switched on everyone to save his.
It's been said his father paid off mafia bosses to cancel the contract on his head.
@@KenUbeleveit1 From what I understand there is no such thing. Less here DONT go into the mafia or any criminal organisation.
It’s nice to see that he is helping people now. He found the love of his life and now he has a calling to help others so that’s great.
That goes to show you how important, a woman or any partner, can be in a mans life. That and faith. Solitary really worked for him. I worked with some young people who were in a family and they chose the military to get out. The navy was popular because it puts distance between them and the family. Youing people are reachable. His work with them is really productive, I'm sure. The other takeaway for me is the power of a brotherhood. In my experience, it shapes men from all walks of life.
He found God too.
"We are who we hang out with, hang with the wrong crowd, they will lead you in the wrong direction & your gonna get in trouble" Facts
youre the average of your friends
Says the dude who signed up with 5 other men who are all f****** dead...
To Mr. Beanie: The CWA 1109 union shops didn't do much for my British dignity and decorum, spirituality, and classical tastes. Playing Beethoven to a rap or rock audience and "throwing pearls before swine" (Matthew 7:6) generated my expected fate
Their corrupt display of doltish and silliness, doing what they can to loosen me up -- is the *ammunition* they use to try to pierce their baited hooks into my soul.
Harken and heed a tip: Follow and hang with the best. If you surround yourself with sewage -- you will smell it on yourself.
@@oreoreo1534 yeah he grew up with the mafia that's different than growing up in a normal environment and choosing to get with the wrong people, and he's changed.
Sleep with dogs & you eventually get fles
Well done, UniLad/Ladbible. These interviews are absolutely brilliant. They could easily go on for longer. Still, I'm looking forward to the next one already... Thank you.
Well they have completely ripped off the UA-cam channel soft white under belly. This guy was even in there 2 years ago. You should watch that channel
@@mrsmokingskittles148 Yet here you are following and watching their videos lmao
@@James_Edward59 I still watch but my comment is still relevant
@mrsmokingskittles14 ripped off? yes.. soft white under belly invented gritty interviews.
@@ashley4372 yes
I tell you what this guy is an amazing speaker and story teller. He has literally told the same story a million times and I still listen.
He’s open and honest and doesn’t glorify the life, his sit down with Sammy gravano was a very interesting watch. Two very different characters who are now using their channels to give unique insights into that life
you do know this goes around parading this shit, he's a rat, he's basically selling a book.
Nah he’s a rat and was never a boss
Times have changed, the people and the way things are run are very different now so what his talking about is already public information and like 90 percent of the people he talks about are either dead in jail or have done their time so he can basically say what ever he wants and nothing is going to happen
Everyone in the comments keeps making jokes but jokes aside this is a pretty awesome interview this man is very eloquent and well spoken and this was quite insightful
He is word perfect because he has repeated the same stories a thousand times . Has an answer or an opinion about all aspects of the Mafia . That is until he failed to answer the question " have you killed anybody " . He refused to answer .
@@paulharrop5879 oh yes now that Im living my best life let me admit to murder a crime that has no statute of limitation just to prove myself to internet people
He's highly intelligent and he knows people who are interested in this genre aren't usually intelligent. I see holes in most of his stories now.
@@paulharrop5879 yeah because he really lived it and not his fault gets the same questions over and over
@@paulharrop5879 oh and he doesn't have immunity like some of the other that talk about killings
This goes to show that there truly is no honor among thieves. You've got a guy who was nothing but loyal, one of the best earners ever, and as solid and stand-up as they come. But despite the fact that he's bringing in half a billion a year off his idea for the family, they accuse him of not paying up enough? Imagine if Tom Brady was accused by Bill Belichik that he's been throwing games and helping other teams win. AFTER all his super bowl wins.
They see scared as he was becoming too powerful, and could start his own family
Greed is a Corrupter,(Money to a Degree Hence Saying Money is the root of all Evil), Especially when it comes to Organised Crime(Any Kind of Street Life), They see someone doing Good & either want that Individual outta the way so Can Absorb their Earn($$$$) or Want to See if they Get more out that Person/Racket & Squeeze it like a Lemon or an Orange over time they are not Happy & Grow to Yearn for more like a Gluentious King at a Banquet think about this(Personally) if Anyone was Bringing Half a Billion a year & you were getting Wealthy off it I sure as Hell wouldn't rock the Cart(Golden Goose) for more, Only Loyalty they(Gangsters) have is to the dollar everything else is a Sham(An Illusion meant to Project Something isn't there), Honor, Respect, etc. is what they want ppl to Believe.
Thieves defrauding the American people of tens of millions of dollars a week for years are NOT solid, stand up guys, PERIOD.
I mean where is the other side of the story though. Easy to paint yourself as a hero.
It's a dog eat dog world. The gratitude he received for his service was being able to walk away with his life, making him disappear would have been easier and safer for the organisation but they let him walk away. That's about as good as it gets.
"We are who we hang out with".
I can't think of anything he said in that interview more profound. So true. I can trace my life back to the point where it took a really bad turn back to a really sweet GT BMX bike that I had and riding it down the street one day when I ran into some older kids. That bike was the catalyst for so many things going wrong in my life and if I hadn't been wheeli-ing down the street that day with my 3-spoke GT and caught the attention of some older kids who took me under their wing so to speak, things might have turned out differently. Probably would have joined the military and my life might have taken a whole different trajectory.
I knew they were from the gutter and that crime and drugs would be a part of hanging with em, but I went anyway. I wish I had just stayed in the skatepark and never met those guys and just skated in the park until something was expected of me in which case like I said, probably would have been the military. Live and learn, at least I have some perspective from those experiences and some great things came out of it....
It's never to late to change your timeline.
Respect brother, how many times we wish we could go back in time but this wise, the paradox of life....
That gas racket he had has to go down as one of the most brilliant mob scams in history. Unreal how much money that brought in.
Defrauding the american people of tens of millions of dollars a week for years is not a thing to be admired.
@@DataRew america govt defrauds its own people with no qualms so what.
@@javiermori1710 elected officials defraud thier own voters, yes. That is not "the government" though, and is solved by not re-electing those individuals and criminally charging them. It's absurd to revere any people who rob you, me, and all other Americans rather than hold them accountable. Nihilism is self-fulfilling destruction.
Worse than the price gouging by oil and gas companies. The gov't is the real mafia. But like with any mob, they CAN be taken down. Remember that.
He doesn’t actually explain what it is though.
I could listen to him talk for hours, his stories are very interesting to listen to in my opinion
Such an interesting interview, kudos to you LadBible! Loving the "Minutes With" series and looking forward to binging more.
Definitely glad I came upon this. Awesome interview and it’s pretty cool to see what determination and a will to change can lead to. Bravo sir bravo 👏
If you die tonight, do you know where you're going? Did you know that Jesus Christ is THE Truth, the life and the only way to Heaven?
Revelation 20:15 ''Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.''
Through Jesus Christ, God offers you a FREE gift - forgiveness. All you need to do is repent, turn away from your sins and evil ways,
from now on put your faith completely in Jesus Christ and be obedient to Him.
Biblical explanation of the Gospel:
God doesn’t want anybody in hell, but you must understand why
we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go
there. He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteous, but
rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). God gave us free will and since Adam
sinned in the garden, sin is the nature of our flesh and we ALL have sinned. (Romans 3:23)
The law demands death to those who sin (Romans 6:23). Since we have all sinned, we all deserve hell.
Revelation 21:8 says that all liars will go to hell. Yes, even if you have lied once in your life, you are sentenced to hell - that's how
high God's standards are of moral perfection because God is holy and righteous, there is not one sin in Him.
For someone to be justified before holy God they have to be sinless, that's why everyone need Jesus Christ
- for He lived a sinless life, died on the cross and rose from the dead on the third day.
None of us are good in God’s eyes, because for God good means moral perfection. We all
have broken God’s commandments, we all have sinned in our lives so none of us
are good. ‘’For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is
guilty of breaking all of it.’’ (James 2:10). Our carnal mind is hostile to God; it does not submit
to God's moral law and it never will (Romans 8:7). We hate the thought of God for the same reason a criminal
hates a policeman - we know we have sinned against God and are guilty of it and we don't want to be damned.
No good works will ever save you. You can't earn salvation by good works, because God will judge us for our sin.
Good News is that Jesus Christ lived a perfect, holy, sinless life and He died for our sins according to the Scriptures,
He was buried and He was raised from the dead on the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:3-4)
For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever
believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.’’ (John 3:16)
We aren’t saved by our good works, but only by the grace of God through faith in Christ.
''For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God -
not by works, so that no one can boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9)
Jesus said ‘’it is finished’’ (John 19:30) just before He died on the cross, which means He paid the fine for our sins
(past, present, future) to be forgiven only IF we repent and trust in Him.
This is how you can get saved from sin and hell - repent of your sins and trust in Jesus Christ. Get to know Him
by reading God's Word.
So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him.” (Luke 11:13)
''What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not!'' (Romans 6:15)
''Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out'' (Acts 3:19)
Repentance is a turning away from sin and all evil works, and it always results in changed behavior (Luke 3:8).
Biblically, a person who repents does not continue willfully in sin.
While sorrow from sin is not equivalent to repentance, it is certainly an element of scriptural repentance (2 Corinthians 7:10).
Do not play a hypocrite. ''God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all.
If we claim to have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth.'' (1 John 1:5-6)
(John 3:3) Jesus replied, "Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again."
If you have repented and have genuine faith in Jesus Christ then you will receive the gift of Holy Spirit and be born-again spiritually.
When you believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance
until the redemption of those who are God’s possession - to the praise of His glory. (Ephesians 1:13-14)
Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. (John 3:36)
''You will know them by their fruits'' (Matthew 7)
If you have been truly born-again with the Holy Spirit and He has regenerated your heart, you will desire righteousnes -
to do what is good and righteous in God's eyes, to seek God everyday in His Word and prayer, to strengthen your relationship with God.
You will no longer desire to willfully continue living in sin but will want to obey God out of your love for Him because of His amazing grace
revealed to us through the death and resurrection of His Son.
''Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.'' (2 Corinthians 5:17)
''For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.'' (Eph 2:10)
You will have a testimony - of what your life had been before and how has it changed now when you have surrendered it to Lord Jesus Christ.
As a declaration and affirmation of your faith in Jesus Christ, get baptised in water because He commanded us to do so.
In John 3:5 Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.''
''Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit'' (Matthew 28:19)
''Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.'' (Acts 2:41)
''And this water symbolizes the baptism that now saves you also - not the removal of dirt from the body,
but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God - through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,'' (1 Peter 3:21)
''We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that,
just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.'' (Romans 6:4)
''Having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God,
who raised him from the dead.'' (Colossians 2:12)
Please get right with God and get to know Jesus Christ personally today before it’s too late, because there’s not much time left!
"But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.’’ (Mark 13:32)
Get to know Christ through God's Word - Bible. At first I recommend reading Gospel of John and book of Romans. God bless you!
Jeremiah 29:13 - ''You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.''
UNILAD, keep coming with these great interviews!
This channel is doing great work.. keep it up guys.I love your video and work
Love this guys UA-cam videos. Watched them for a while now.
Inspiring story. Any of us can change. All we need is the right motivation.
You'll never hear the real truth of his activities because the can would be waiting for him...he's telling what HE wants you to know.
Mr Franzese is a true gentleman. He turned his entire life around. His youtube channel is brilliant.
He's a gentleman? He's a murderer. What the fuck are you talking about?
Lol
What an excellent and thought provoking talk. Thank you for engaging him.
Watched a lot of people telling lots of stories, some of which you can find out were exaggerated. I have been watching Michael for a while he is the real deal, he does not brag extort the truth, he lived a certain life and tells you about it without trying to glamorise it.
@@shivahuggins1276 lol
Fantastic interview. Very insightful, and eloquent.
Very very cool video. Thank you so much for sharing! This was very insightful.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 thanks for his honesty !!
I love listening to this guy ever since I came across him I’ve binged watched his interviews/videos … a real OG.
It's getting abit boring now. He says the same story on every youtube channel that he goes on. Im sure he's well paid for it though
He’s a rat, and was never a boss lmao he’s straight 🧢
@@Ladioz I think the thing with Michael is that he want to talk about serious political thing on his yt channel and to do so he wants to have a clean image with the public , like I remember that he mentioned several times that he blew up a gas station but never tell how and why , Michael was also arrested in 1978 for being a driver for a murder the feds also believed that he provided 9 cars from his dealership for murders but he never talk about those things because he have no immunity for murders but even a part that none of the stories that he kept saying none of them engage any types of violence and if he does he doesn’t give any details I mean I understand that he can’t talk about murder but I mean he surely have interesting stories of him beating up people or things like that .
A real snitch
Excellent Interview.... you can tell his knowledgeable and has wisdom about life (including the crime one)
Finally, been waiting for this for quite a while!
Two Mafia hit-men are walking deep into a forest in the middle of the night.
One of them says: "I gotta admit I'm scared out here."
The other replies: "You're scared... I gotta walk back alone!"
🤣
:D
You straight up just searched up mafia joke on Google and copied the first one 😭 fair play tho I guess
Matthew: I don't get it.
@@eddyvideostar try to read it again..
Came across Mike and his story about 7 years ago, blew my mind. To see him where he is now even just from them is amazing. Goes to show no matter what youre doing, right or wrong, if you really put the effort in youll get the desired results. His Sit Down with Sammy The Bull is AMAZING
He seems like a nice guy. Intelligent, well spoken, good manners.
Michael its a honor to hear your story . Iam 64 myself and spent 34 years in Australian prisons , Good to hear your going okay and found love , Nothing is worth your freedom good luck in the future
34 years??? Man how did you keep your zest for living?? Honestly, I always wondered how individuals keep their purpose and drive confined as you were!! Write a book! Or just hire a ghost writer and you could tell stories on life, fear, guilt, anguish and every human!! Good day mate!!
@@holly52ful LMAO yeh i would be able to write a best seller . I done a lot of sh^t in prisons in Australia i was what you Americans call a shot caller but not just for a jail but for the whole state. We were a gang we only had one gang Us against the officers. It wasnt like America we didnt hurt each other we all worked with each other against the system. Its not like that no more they were the good old days. Now its all full of gangs and cowardly stuff its a putrid system now. I will never go back brother i don't like the crims of today no morals . But i do advise young people to not go down that path its a wasted life
Michael is an intelligent man. His channel is well worth watching. I am sure back in the day he was the last person in the world you would want to mess with.
Good reason not to support him lol
For real the dudes a bad ass he’s amazing
if he was an intelligent man, he would have finished med school and become a doctor, not a gangster/murderer and end up in prison, nothing amazing about this man. Says alot about people who glorify people like him
@@charlesjay8818 The truth is the bad guys have all the best stories.
@@charlesjay8818Calm down Karen! Like you haven’t made any mistakes in life right !? Lol. The guy obviously has regrets about the life he was in & who doesn’t love a good redemption story.
Can't wait for the uk tour Michael
He already did it
can you interview me shaun? im norways biggest livestreamer bro
@@StianNorwaylive How are you the biggest with less than 1k subs. Did you mean to say your the smallest bro?
Been watching this guy since I first saw him on Mike Tyson's podcast. Great storyteller
God bless this brother, what a inspiring story and a mighty change to a man who have lived that type of life and now a change man and helping youngsters in jail and with a ministry, what a story.
Love Michael his UA-cam channel is one of the best out there! Keep up the good work!
I’ve been following this guy on his own UA-cam channel for years. The stories he has are so far out of sync with reality. Highly recommend checking him out. His mannerisms, tone of voice, and the way he sits and tells stories. You can tell he was a tough business man that he could have on day paid for with his own life. He’s a real mobster.
Well done Ladbible for getting him on, one of the best story tellers you could ever get.
Agreed Michael is something else.., tremendous charisma and stage presence…
What is the name of his YT channel? Thanks in advance.
@@samn6498 it's just his name, Micheal Franzese
What do you mean by “so far out of sync with reality”? Honest question because here in America, if someone said your stories are so far out of sync with reality, we would take that as you are calling him a liar and saying that he is making up his stories so much that they don’t even sound possible or believable.
@@James_Edward59 Yep I'm Irish and in Ireland we wouldn't understand what way to take that statement sounds like you saying he talking out his arse. I don't know the man so I've no dog in the fight. Regards Eire32
Michael it is good to listen to someone who is obviously educated and articulate explaining his involvement In criminality in his early life and give genuine advice to young people who are on this track in their lives.
Different class to many other sites on UA-cam.
Thank you so much for telling us your story. I am so glad to be exposed to other's lives that are so different than mine. Hopefully someday I can find a way to help.
Beautiful submissions,honest submissions of a real man who does not hesitate to tell the truth of his life experiences to save future generations from being guilty of law.Hope when streyed youngsters hear this man in heart can learn a lot and learn how to save them selves.
Even tho I've heard his story so many times I still watch any videos with him
The change in Michael is very prevalent. He's a Hero of mine. I enjoy his honesty and his shoot from the hip style of getting the truth out. God bless you Michael.
I barely made anything from the market always FUD at every little dip until I gave using a financial advisor try, who has managed my portfolio from $250k to over $450k in 8 months.
@Brett Atkinson Stephanie Priscilla Bonillo is the brokerage-adviser. She has been of great help and her tutelage has brought me to a higher understanding of proffit generation. You can look up her name on the net for her page and reach out. Understands the job perfectly.

Every successful investor has seen their fair share of losses. smooth seas don't make good sailors. if you haven't seen any losses yet rough waters are coming
@Richard M Todd You are full of crap.
I’ve watched Michael speak at least 100 times & I’ve never heard him change a single word of his story. People can learn a lot from him.
Michaels channel on UA-cam is brilliant 💯
This is class one the best ones👏🏻🍀🇮🇪
Great story teller thanks for sharing
Michael is on every platform these days even Good Morning Britain... What a legend haha.
He's doing meet and greets at the mall
The craziest thing is that he has kind eyes.
I was waiting on this one
Fascinating interview. I could listen to this guy for hours. I love Italy and could emigrate there. Been to Sicily and other parts of Italy - really stunning. The best food in the world (in my opinion), stunning architecture, clothes, hand bags etc. Most Italians are also very hospitable.
I've heard this guy tell his story on like 5 youtube channels by now but damn its interesting every single time
This guys podcast and UA-cam channel got me through the first lockdown - his life stories are insane!
He also got a cheeky mention in Goodfellas 🙌
yes just watched good fellas yesterday
Which part?
Guy was a criminal, why do people idolize these figures?
@@unhombrealado key word was. So you've never done bad things you've regretted?

Amazing interview! Wow!!
Thanks for the insights, Michael.
Pat here from Ireland 🇮🇪 great stories 👍
Nice to meet you pat. I’m Greg from the USA 🇺🇸
I love listen to this guys stories. Seen him talk before on soft white underbelly and other channels. Not boastful, no bravado, doesn’t brag, just tells it how it is. Still honorable and cool-headed. Would be very interesting to hear some of the deeper stories from that life.
Michael we need to see you in a Mafia movie. Great man I could listen to your stories all day every day 👍
Love michaels channel really interesting stories
I am overwhelmed with respect and love ( yes Christian love in respect of someone who changed his live around ) I salute you Michael Franzese it takes GUTS to do what u did. I would love to hear more of you.
can we all agree when he uploads it makes our day
Very good interview 🤝
Amazing interview
Micheal Franzese is a class act and a man’s man!
Don Corleone: A man that doesn't spend time with his family is not a real man
By those words, Michael is definitely a man's man
He is a gangster feeding and filling his pockets of stories about his past criminal activities .
@@paulharrop5879 he WAS a gangster. he's going around to prisons telling young men to stay out of the gang life
@@michaelunderhill8847 Killing has been going on since the beginning of time. Even world governments do the same exact thing. At least Michael is doing his best to make a positive impact on society by telling young men in prison to stay off the streets and not make the same mistakes he has made
such a neanderthall thing to say
If you gonna be on the street you gonna do it the right way this man's consistency telling the story 👏🏿
Real life. Thanks for this interview
Every few years this guy pops up and does interviews. Good for him
He has his own yt channel Michael franzese
I met Michael at Oakland FCC church and bought his book Blood Covenant. Michael's life turned around from being born again into the "the family" and exchanged to being born into the family of Christ! He is extremely engaging and has a lot of humility, unlike his previous self while he was part of the mob. He meets with recruits in the major sports leagues on how not to get bribed. Thanks, Michael for what you do! God Bless!
Been watching his channel for years, glad to see he’s getting some recognition 👏🏽
I don't trust shit he has to say hes definitely a rat.
This was a heartfelt interview with a really well spoken and knowledgeable person who has a great business sense as well as loyalty. He never badmouthed the family and understood the processes if something like internal fraud were to go wrong. I would say that is why he walked out of that meeting alive. One thing with the Mafia, unlike the modern drug cartels is that for one, they never dealt in drugs and didn’t destroy thousands of lives. They were intelligent and found loopholes in the legal systems of the day and flaunted these to make an income. they literally skimmed the cream off the top of a corrupt government pie. Governments worldwide are corrupt to this day and so tied up with it, that what theses guys did, was not such a sin, unlike the Cartels in this day and age. Thank you michael, what you show in this video is a person who is very articulate and would have succeeded in any form of business you started.
Thank you Michael for sharing your story with the world, may God bless you and those you love always🙏
PTSD..he has so much pain in his eyes, yet so composed. Never show a weakness is a hard learned instinct that is hard to overcome at times. A survival mode. Thank you for choosing to turn the bad into good inspite of the heavy price that was paid for it. You're helping many others to understand choice and consequences that can change their lives and their loved one's lives forever 🙏🏼
You can identify these syndtomes, how
Teach me?
“I kept my cool as usual” badass quote
that is soooooooo interesting thank u so much
What an amazing life story and what an interesting speaker .
I love watching anything with Michael or Sammy The Bull in it. Super intresting people who go out of a very unique situation
I'm pretty sure he's more honourable than the majority of politicians.
@@michaelunderhill8847 literally none of your comments have any relation to my comment. He's left the mafia unless you didn't listen at all.
@@danielcpt3819 i thought one doesn't leave the mafia
@@TheRealBatCave he clearly said he did.
For somebody to be in the mob, you have really changed your life around and I am very proud and wish you and your family all the best
Amazing guy told the truth love what he does for community service
This man’s insight about a life of crime has educated and inspired me a lot to write my next crime story.
Thank you, Sir.
This man loves a good talk about the mafia doesnt he.
Fascinating guy 👀 Cool & calm reflection of his crazy life. 👌🙌
One of the most interesting people on the Internet, period, on one of the most interesting channels on UA-cam, period.
This is 1 of 4 stories that get told in a loop like the Scooby Doo paintings, Tony Salerno 'mamaluke' , John Gotti 'flea market' , 'your dad did nothing to help you' sit-down, and this one!
Michael Franzece has the intellectual capacity to run the economy of a nation.
may be as it may, the moral capacity not as much...
Good story Mike you speak the truth there's no lying in you.
I could listen to him all day
Damn Mike came over to England and done interviews everywhere he’s doing it right lol
I would have been interested to hear about, if his former boss had a contract out on him, how he survived in prison and also how he eventually managed to get away from being under that contract and move out of the life.
He has a youtube channel
@@frightfactoryYT Yeah he was just careful and luckily he managed to outlive most of his counteraparts
Great guy.
Very talented speaker. And no doubt- he has alot to tell.
Thank you Michal for your honesty about the life. Fascinating to hear you tell it. I ran into many cartel members over my life, most very respectful and a few really scary guy's. I hope you are safe and have a great life 💜 with your family and friends. Take care and I'll ciya later friend. Thanks again.
Absolute respect for this man. He done his time, didn't rat, he lived through it and came out the other side. Good on you.
BS he snitched as well
Hat won't bother you if you trade with a professional like Mr Sam my coach, you may have come across him on interviews relating to bitcoin and stocks. He trades, manage trading account and offer mentorship program for clients who wish to become professional investors.
Best of the best!!!
Great story 👏 🏴
Trust and Learn from people with scars, and you do have a scar Michael that anyone who chooses to take that path must learn from it.
Well said. I have several major scars and as an older man now, I could talk for days about how people treated those who are not in the in crowd! But hey all is good my friend and best wishes for you and your family!!!
He spoke at my church.. Harvest church (Greg Laurie) about a month ago. My stepson actually came to church with us to see him. He's paralyzed from the waist down from living "that life".
I hate long videos because of my short attention span, but I couldn’t stop watching this. SO interesting. Well done!
He is the most respectful guy.....
