One of life's hardest lessons is learning blood relatives are some of the most envious enemies and hindrances of happiness you will have.
Amen to that! They cant even support your new business!
I find this to be true, not just with men, with women too. I have it my family also.
So sad that people do this.
Damn. 100%.
💯
That is SO true! I have been amazed with the changes since my parents have passed. Family can break your heart like no one else!
*"Mike, when are you gonna come and see me? I miss you."*
Losing my father was one of the worst things that have ever happened to me. To have a voicemail of him telling me he missed me would make me happy and probably very sad at the same time. But I sure wish I had that voicemail. 🥺❤
The toughest thing with family is that often times they discourage you with their behavior, even though, from their perspective, it comes from a place of wanting to either help you or safeguard you from certain things. And the worst part is that it’s tough (near impossible) to tell them this, especially parents, because they will keep up their behavior subconsciously… that is if you can get your point across without them taking it the wrong way and getting offended in the first place…
You don't have to be wise or a wiseguy to hear the sincerity in these guy's voices. I know they are friends but we just received a heartfelt conversation between to good men. God bless!
With Legitimate character, a rarely integrity MOB-Captain has turned out to be anything else, still in gratefully brilliant shiny! Love to hear Michael Franzese’s story!
First of all, the wisdom from these guys is beautiful.
Secondly, it is genuinely heartbreaking to hear what Michael went through.
You're the man, Michael. You don't have to justify anything to us man we love ya for who you are.
"It's a Retirement Community!"
You can hear the lament and heartfelt explanation in Michael's voice on a subject he's shared repeatedly. Not sure the trigger, but no need to justify this any further. Always an absolute pleasure to listen to you both; your collective history is fascinating. Continued blessings, good health and have a very Merry Christmas.
Think the trigger was Joey Merlino
@@tomz5704either way I don’t think this is Michael’s finest moment. This answer to the first question is scripted. I really feel he’s breaking down. I’m still a fan of Michael but he’s simply an entertainer now that can make up stories for all I care lol
Micheal I love you as a christian brother and respect you as a human and man you shouldn't have to keep proving you self because like you said if people can show proof that you put people in prison bring it and no one has and it's because it's not there and wouldn't you think if you did put someone in prison they would gotten to you by now God bless
I think Micheal has always been objective and honest about the ups and down with his mother father and family situation,
I can hear the emotion in your voice, choked me up bit, God bless you Mike and Chaz.
WHO CARES WHAT PEOPLE, THINK. YOU KNOW YOUR TRUTH
This podcast gets better and better.
Very interesting Michael.
I'm sorry to hear how you had to jump in and help your family, but you did the right thing.
God Bless you.!
Merry Christmas.
Chazz, that you and Michael for sharing this.
Bless you both.
Merry Christmas. 🌲
Wow this is Michael best discussion ever. Epic. And impressive. God bless him.
Good afternoon Mr. Palminteri, Mr. Franzese. There's a book written by Bill O'relly & Martin Dugard highly recommend it to all of view,( viewers and both of you). the name of this book is "Killing the mob."in regards family, only God knows behind the walls and all the rest of us have to respect that privacy. in your case Mr.Franzese or Mr. Palminteri as public persons thinks like this will come sooner or later or time to time will come those type of questions. For me, I'm not better than anyone here but always try to behave with respect to anyone. May The good Lord be always with both and your lovely families.
Chazz looks like Vinnie ‘ the chin ‘ Gigante 😂😂😂
Damn that can't be unseen. You hit that right on the head!
@@ronvalentine3578 😂😂
Michael, I was very close to your father when we were in transit together in 2000, and once we both got to Milan. I was a very successful jailhouse lawyer, and Sonny spent hundreds of hours going over his case. He wouldn't accept the fact that I knew little about the old, pre-SRA laws. He was so funny. Anyway, I loved and respected your old man very much. We parted ways in 2003 when I was released. I was so happy to see that he lived another 17 years beyond that. God Bless you and your family. I know Sonny is smiling down on you and looking forward to being with you again someday.
I really like Mike and Chazz.
I feel these are genuine men.
I like these guys, they’re alright. They’re good fellas.
@@step2058 agreed
glad to hear this..sorry about my previous thoughts.. that's it.
Loving your podcasts TOP FELLA
Well done gentlemen! I’ve heard the videos you’ve mentioned & I’m very happy you set the record straight-in my mind as well as your followers it wasn’t necessary but very happy you did this to keep the “know it alls” quiet-they’re just looking for views!
I would love to hear about Chazz's experiences with the life, other than what is told in "A Bronx Tale".
He doesn’t have any
Mike, we love you….. I have been with you since the beginning. Love you too Chazz.❤️
Michael, this is one great sit down with Chaz!! People could learn a lot from Your Honesty!! I admire You and the way You speak the truth!! may God bless You and Your wonderful family!!!
That was as clear as it gets 👌👍
And yet someone's going to twist every word they can to make it sound the way they want it to.
Helpful and good episode. I am sorry your family you were raised in Michael had to suffer so much, and with so many tragedies. I hope your younger brother is doing well and of peace of mind too. ✌
Very Great interview! Merry Christmas would love to meet you in person one day .God bless you and your family keep up the good work Michael.
Who cares what other people say Mr Franzese ? As you said, you serve a different master and their lack of knowledge and respect is their problem !!
Great episode! Michael, out of all the interviews I've seen of you, I've not seen you talk about playing in the movie Anger Management yet!
Great as usual guys!!! Thank you both for doing these. Be well and stay safe!!
Thank you for sharing this story Michael though you have nothing to explain to anyone. What happens inside a family isn't another's business. Ill say your Dad was obviously stand up very loyal to that life he knew, but the most stand up thing he ever did was stand by & love you Michael.
Great episode 🔥🔥🔥🔥 I wish he woulda went into the convo he had with his dad wen he was sent for ! Do a video n detail that convo Michael
Keep it up gentlemen. I love the content. Don’t let anyone besmirch your good name.
Thank you two, God bless you both and your Fam's
"Its not a nursing home. Its a retirement community" - Tony Soprano
Great show,love it !
Sonny did some very hard time. Then he was in and out a couple three times, and the Man never made a deal. Thats a honorable Man.
I love this show thanks guys!
I agree, 🤔👍 some people overstep in the comment section. It's funny that so many people think they know more about your life than you do. Have a great day.
Michael is a real man
Michael, you have confessed your sins before God and Man. You have spoken your truth and you have dedicated your life to helping others. The greatest teacher is one who has been thru the darkness and has found the light. Your father was who he was and I know he broke your heart in some ways but, be comforted my brother, in knowing he produced a great man and a most humble servant of God.
You know people want to talk about what did , but not what you’re trying to do , good luck michael
Hey fellas , I,m from Belleville n.j. . rite around the corner from Cabert,s club and I did my growing up in n. newark . My dad was well connected and was just waiting for the books to open . I,m only writing this bc my dad passed and that whole crew "A. Gerard,s crew under the boot . I have some great story,s i feel i can talk about . my dad was in trenton for a while . i miss my dad more than anything . my mom is 96 and at the time of my writing this is weak , however still with us . Jim. Ran. ...A devingo...j.z. I would love to talk to you guys .
My mother passed in April of 2020 the death certificate says Covid complications. She was 91 and a strong lady. She beat pneumonia also in her 80's.
A Friend of a Friend I understand, thank you!!
Isn’t that the phrase Charles Lucky Luciano told the allies to use when they landed on Sicily to identify themselves as coming with the “blessings” of Luciano and guaranteeing help in the fight against the GERMANS?
I was curious if you ever met Raymond Patriarca ? I found him to be a very scary man!
step-dad right??!
What's your point
I think Michael is taking the comments made by Merlino to personal, and it truly bothers him . When you know something isn’t true, engaging it on social media only makes it worse . Remember misery loves company, and nobody cares 🤫
Mike usually ignores the bs but Merlino was so out of line Mike felt it was necessary to defend his father and himself. Being a Christian doesn't mean you're always a doormat.
Really tough questions 😒
It's Michael Grillo AKA Michael Franchese...!!
Hi Michael! Why did you use the last name Grillo until you were 18/19 years old? Your mom got pregnant with you at 16. If your dad was Sonny he got an underage girl pregnant. Is that the trait of a stand up guy or man of honour? Also can you please speak truthfully about Ornge Tutt and Gerald Gutterman. Michael don’t have this comment blocked like you do when someone brings up the truth about you. Remember when you brought an agent wearing a wire to meet your “dad? Norby Walters spent a year in jail because of your testimony before he got out for that technicality that was brought up on appeal.
We love you Mike
Micheal Don't worry about what these confused people say they need to grow up
❤❤💪💪💪💪 Love yous guys!!!
It might of been an assisted living facility like they have an apartment of there own but they can get help if needed
What ever happened to Frank Grillo?
Mike,it is time for you to "go" to the Colombos...which is crazy and tell them to sort it out with Skinny.Just a suggestion.Rob D is in charge now.
@@Jason.cbr1000rrthey are supposed to teach a lesson to Joey,otherwise,there is no honor.Their instincts.
In no way would going anywhere near those types of
People a good idea imho
Michael you don't have to defend yourself people are just ugly and nasty in this world
Michael I feel that it is distasteful and ignorant of people that question your paternity. Ignore those people and continue to live your best life..
Hi! How are you? Michael, I always appreciated the affection you expressed for your dad; it’s so sweet. I don’t understand why people cast aspersions; they’re just rude. Dads are the best.
"IT WAS A RETERIMENT COMMUNITY!.." 12:35
All my life I’ve been told nobody worse than a rat but after listening to Michael’s story I’ve come to respect what he did I don’t agree with his decision to become a mobster but I respect his reasons for doing so he wanted to help his father which is something I’ve been raised to do myself
Sonny was the underboss of the Colombo's.the f.b.i without doubt frames that man you know what I don't know how they can sleep at night.knowing they framed him and wasted half his life ❤r.i.p sonny
I’m so hurt to see you Michael this way. Please fuck the hater. You’re a real gentleman. I’m all the way from the Netherlands and love you. Don’t care what som Philli idiot say about you. I cancelled Thad show immediately
What a complicated lifestyle,and destructive way to live.The Mob Life is another world,we can’t imagine being in that life.
Chaz really get older,they sayed u get old when Your spiritus Go in that state.
You DON'T talk about someone else's parent especially if they have passed!! PERIOD!!
Why did they try him in Albany ?
so I'm led to believe that Sonny was not Michael's biological father , can anyone here verify this?
I believe in one of his episodes he mentioned that he did adopt him at an early age
@@dboyddon9697 Michael's mother was 16 and pregnant by Sonny who was married at the time. His mom married another guy to avoid scandal. She then divorced him and married Sonny when he was divorced. He thought Sonny was his stepfather. He adopted him because he had the other mans name. He only ever knew Sonny.
@@heidithaw1072 cool thanks. Merry Christmas
💯
Hi Michael, I was a little girl, with my mama ❤and dad, we were having dinner, in little italy, on mulberry street, as we were coming out!!🇮🇹 We saw Mr. Gotti walking down the street, I never forgot that day. 100italian🇮🇹❤️ 3:55
Your best friend is a dollar in your pocket.
Case closed
Damn Michael looks just like Sonny
he doesn't
I started watching Michael a year ago when Vincent Kennedy brought up that he read Michael's book. since then I've been addicted to mob tube. there must be 17 different shows talking all kinds of nonsense. i can see the drama is only get worse. people are so brainwashed that mafia is some glamorous organization that has this great code of never cooperating. it's so dumb.
the real question is "who was your real dad?" (pro tip: wasn't Sonny)
As a father I totally disagree with putting pressure on your kid to join the mob that's not fair. me I would want my kids to have better and be the total opposite of me
Michael, who is now the oldest memebr of that life thay is still alive ?
I'll bet PBD acted a little too busy (maybe looked at his phone?) at lunch. End of interview.
You don't need to justify your father to some clown like Merlino. Every ex mob guy on UA-cam loved your father, apparently Gotti loved your father, and the did Chin too. We all know Joey wouldn't have said anything while they were around and he definitely wouldn't have said anything to your fathers face. He seemed like even though he might have done some bad things he wanted to be a good father and that's what matters.
2 sisters ? I thought they bith passed …
Michael didn't take care of his mother.
❤️💚💙🌹
Wish he’d actually do a DNA test proving he’s Sonny’s biological kid, but that can’t happen. He’s the adopted son of Sonny. He’s a snake-oil salesman, but it makes him legal money. He did testify against Norby Walters & Lloyd Bloom. If not for the legal technicality, meaning the advice from lawyers nullified a crime, Walters was going to do time & Michael’s testimony was the publicly applauded by the courts, as a big help.
What snake oil does he sale? You come off as trust me bro guy with this comment. I mean literally old news videos says he was adopted.
It was suicide...
After you got outta prison; why didn’t you go back to med school?
He's in the life not easy
Sounds like you’re own father railroaded you bro!! You don’t have to use Chaz as a keyboard to help Joey understand cause Joey Merlino don’t care!😂
I think Sonny had more Spirit,positive energy then u Two BOTH!
U Sounds so depressive when I Listen
They all enjoy in that life and now told bullshit All negative staff
Could you type that out again in English lol.
góv suks
As an Italian 🇮🇹 and i know other family understand what Michael is saying
If you don't help out your father ? Why the fuck didn't the columbo crime family .. 😂
Because there is no loyalty in that life.
Good question I've been asking myself.
You guys are the best, both of you are an inspiration to me, Mike for how you turned your life around, I'm a recovering alcoholic of 14 years on April 5th and had to turn my entire life around so in my small life we have that in common, and Chazz is just brilliant in storytelling and of course "A Bronx Tale" is on my Mount Rushmore of best mob movies. I sincerely hope you keep this show going. God Bless!
It's a shame the reason this video had to be made. However, I'm glad to hear the information being told by Michael and not some guy that isn't worth a puddle of piss and talking $hit on a 103 year old true legend. Sonny was and always will be an icon in that lifestyle. Thank you both for another amazing story!
An icon in that life, but a scumbag serial killer to the rest of the world.
ON THE FLIP SIDE HIS DAD DID WHAT JOEY WAS TALKING ABOUT FOR 10 YEARS. OKAYED A CONTRACT ON HIS SON AND DIDNT TALK TO HIM FOR 10 YEARS AND THAN BROKE DOWN. ALSO THE FACT THAT MICHAEL COULDN'T GO TO HIS OWN DADS FUNERAL IN NY IS ANOTHER THING JOEY TALKS ABOUT WHEN YOU RAT YOUR NOT EVEN ABLE TO SET FOOT AT THE FUNERAL HOME IN YOUR OLD NEIGHBORHOOD? THAT'S A WILD LIFE TO LIVE AND VERY SAD.
@@nationalcarshippinginc645people aren’t understanding that this situation about Sonny was talked about at clubs. The guy did his time. Can’t take that away but like you said he broke down which I don’t judge him much for but I’ve heard more than a few people talk about his father that new him
I mean like he broke down by he was doing what Joey talked about basically disowned him for 10 years and okayed a hit on his own son, than eventually broke down and saw his son and started talking again @@billmason6976
@billmason6976 his father gave the ok to have I'm killed. If they wanted him dead, he would have been dead. Sonny did NO wrong!
This is a great story. Thank you Michael
Much respect for both of you.
That’s a good story about your dad changing his mind when Patrick and his film crew were ready to film him. You gotta love it ! 😊 At 100 years old he probably felt that he had nothing more to gain … idk but it’s a good story that reflects some of the twists that life throws at just about anyone.
I went threw a similar life style. 🇮🇹 Family's can be tuff. Great show
Happy Holidays Gentleman 🎊
Two brilliant men. Great interview.
