Well said Brotha'. We have more reasons to be unified and work together than be divided and make it easier for the people in control/on top to screw with us.

Mickey Scars is a very genuine guy and never brags. Great channel. Keep up the good work guys! I also enjoy Sammy's podcast but whats confusing me is the fact that he is always the good guy in every single story he ever told.
@@slowb4lls1 I’m sure he was very aware of their reputation. Nino was definitely the type of capo that followed mafia protocol. I believe if he was around when Castellano was killed he would have fell in line with Gotti. Same with Roy.
@slowb4lls1 I agree, the difference between being scared and cautious. I think literally everybody was cautious about Roy Demeo, not necessarily scared. Alls it takes is a bullet and the legend of Roy Demeo began.
Mikey the approach you and RJ have taken with this UA-cam channel platforms is Revolutionary. You guys are going down in the History books for this. God Bless you and Rj and your families.
Fear, no. He wasn't a pussy. He was simply not able to come after Roy who had too many killers around him and was always on guard himself. Sammy describes Gotti as 'shook up' about the idea he might be ordered to do it. He had a much smaller and less experienced crew. It would have been a slaughter, followed by the police rounding up what was left. However, fear is irrelevant anyway. It doesn't mean weak.
Absolutely fascinating conversation. I was totally engulfed in every word of the dialogue exchange. I could easily have listened intently for another 4 hours straight. Some great insight on “The Life” from an insider with great questions from RJ.
Them haters need to keep my boys name out they mouth 🤌🏼🪖Mikey Scars is the only person who's sincere,and hates what he did! I love my boy Scars!! ✊🏻⚔️🎰✴️
Great story Mike you tell stories better than Oprah Winfrey, John Gotti didn't fear anybody and had no fear, John Gotti had fear one time in his life when he was playing a little league baseball and scared of striking out... I was the same really I had no fear either..... now at my age I'm a scared of flowers.....
@@yankees29 Not at all. As my family has experienced several deaths over the years and recent months. My older brother lost his 1st wife back in 2017 then remarried in 2019. He was never the same man again. He died in Feb of 2023.
Been a big fan of mafia history and lore for a long time. Now you have your videos out it shows the real side of LCN. It's nice to see Michael franzese and Sammy tell their storys but I feel there's a side to them that is not true. You are not doing this for money or fame so thanks for these videos.
Mr. DiLeonardo did your grandfather know if Salvatore D'Aquila commanded the Palermo group from Ignatzio Lupo? Did Tom Reina have any dealings with D'Aquila after he moved to the Bronx? His dealings with Frankie Yale would be interesting as well as Manfredi Mineo. Was the Salvatore DiBella group originally a part of the Bonannos before Joe Fontana came to the US? These answers may not exist soon as our elders are fading away, that's why I ask about ancient history. Thank you for any time to spend on these questions. Great interview, all around.
@@MikeyScarsNOEXCUSES Wow. I don't think I have heard that before from you. A lot of Wiseguys have said that same thing before about refusing those positions. It's not worth the "eyes" of everybody waiting for your death or incarceration .
The quote was from Gene gotti on a wiretap saying "roy was surrounded by an army of killers." I don't think the gotti crew was "afraid" of Roy, just he had a lot of dangerous guys around him and that should be taken into consideration if we do go after him.
Yes, I remember reading that. Sammy and his crew turned the job down because he had a whole crew of dangerous guys and they could also smell out things that make getting close to them very difficult, they weren't coming in to any sitdows figuring that out could be a hit. Like going after the President of some banana Republic vs trying to get the president of a nuclear armed country. Sammy eventually farmed the job out to Tommy karate, only one who could get close to him. They both were serial killers who enjoyed "chopping it up" their victims that is. Go figure?
I've read only 100 mafia books. How about a history lesson on Gambino family from 1900 on. Pre Mangano and the war. List the bosses and the treachery as you know it.
I donr think "AFFRAID' is the right word, he wouldnt have made it to his position had guys like Gravano and Frank Deccico seen that. I think abit more leary and weary of who Demeo was is more like it. I think had it gotten that far out of hand (it got crazy) but, had they been able to find nobdy to kill him they would have cotacted Scarpa of Casso (possibly both) to take care of business and either , Scarpa or Casso would have tortured him to set an example. FAR STRETCH i know, but i think it wouldve had to of been done to show hey this is code. I dont think John Gotti was scared i think he was more leary just like every else was had they of known of a guy who cut up hundreds of bodies "they say" and feasted while the bodies were sliced up and or draining decapitated hanging up. Its somethjng out of a horror movie, i think Joey Testa and Anthony Senter were more affraid of the threat they recieved had they not of killed Roy Demeo. I think they knew somebody they woukdve had to of taken Demeo out i mean come on no way anybody wouldve thought spmething like that couldve lasted a life time. So i think that Gaspipe was way more intimidating than Roy Demeo obvooulsy the Gemini Twins thought so. OR AND THIS IS A BIG OR is they would have hired somebody of a dirrent race or an outsider to do the work. Pick the entire Gemini Crew off slowly bc think of it its somethung none of them would have seen coming.
i gotta say that i really never knew much about michael (aside from the bad mouthing i heard from the junior gotti interviews) … but now after watching his content and listening to him break down the life and speak in general firstly he’s extremely intelligent and that comes off just in the way he speaks and in his vernacular and IMO his breakdown of the life is spot on and he is truly speaking the truth through his experiences during his time in the life and ge is a pleasure to listen to i really have grown to like the guy and he seems like an awesome guy to sit down and just shoot the shit with him for hours and he honestly does MAKE NO EXCUSES and you HAVE TO RESPECT THAT!! - also excellent job to RJ for the way he puts the content together and his knowledge through research of the life bravo lots of luck w the new channel fellas salute 🇮🇹🙏🏻🙌🏼❤️🩹
TONY ,THAT WAS SPECIAL, TY, THERE ARE OTHER MEN OUT THERE THAT HAVE THE SAME OUTLOOK , GOOD GUYS THAT DON'T KILL TO GET WHAT THEY WANT..PROCESS RIGHT AND WRONG..THAT IS WHEN THAT LIFE CAN BE GOOD TY AGAIN
I don't remember hearing John Jr ever badmouth him publicly. Maybe he can't say it outright but I have a feeling John is the type who was understanding and would be forgiving, knowing Michael didn't want to do what he did. Probably not a situation where speculation is necessarily appropriate, but oh well.
What a bunch of rubbish. If you agree with that view point then I guess if you study the NFL and study the history of the Dallas cowboys and Jimmy Johnson and Troy aikman and deon Islanders and emmit Smith. Does That means you know what it is like to play football. Not just professional football but football in general.
Micheal and RJ, just want you guys to know, as a truck driver there must be 30-40 shows on YT I listen to in all genres and this one has become one of my favorites. It's just so unique.😎👍 Please keep it up
Again, another great show boys , I've subscribed and like every video and have got 5 or 6 of my friends doing the same . It's a shame we don't have the wisdom when we were younger . Now I know wat they mean wen they say " youth is wasted on the young" lol . Best wishes.
Michael, during the years you were active on the street did you ever have any business dealings with members of smaller families outside of New York? For example, New England, Pittsburgh, Buffalo ? These discussions you are having with RJ are great, especially when you tell stories
The story about John being "afraid" of Roy came from a wire tap. Gene gotti and Angelo were talking about how Paul was floating the idea about killing Roy with John and that John was cautious because he knew Roy was a dangerous guy, and he'd have to be careful. That is way different than being afraid of someone.
Gotti wasn't afraid of anything or anybody. I believe he respected some more than others for their abilities. If he walked into a room where some of you hang out you'd be in awe and shit your pants also want to say that a Gangster doesn't have to kill anyone to be a Gangster. I don't understand why people on these forums are so obsessed with killing and if you didn't you're not a real gangster. Most people will pull a trigger. You have to be "capable" to be a Wiseguy.
Two months ago, I was fortunate enough to see my first episode of what I believe is such a great compination of truth and sincerity, Intelligence, and a guy who not only asks great questions, but is bright enough to allow Michael to answer, without interrupting. Easy listening, you guys are together. So glad to be a part of what you two are doing . Mr. Michael, you are about 7 or 8 years ahead of me in this thing called life. Like you, I always had older gents as friends. I was a big golf guy in the 70's as and beyond. Because I was good, I always played with guys that were better than I. not only did I become a better golfer and one time professional, I would be involved in their conversations, and hang on every word that they would say, because I was smart enough to know that I need to put a lot of the stuff in my back pocket, because these guys have been here longer than me, which means they know more than me. I remember one episode you were talking about that was hanging out with the guys older than you. it's been my advice to younger people for a long time. as I have said, keep doing what you guys are doing, it's entertaining, it's intelligent, and it's real . God bless you both always.JD
I am glad that you pointed out that John Gotti was not afraid of Roy Demeo. John Gotti might have been leery about Roy, because Roy was very unpredictable and violent and I’m sure that Roy felt the same way about Gotti. You are correct in pointing out that when you get a reputation of being too violent and unpredictable that you are setting yourself up to be killed, just like what happened to Albert Anastasia in 1957.
Anybody from a urban working class neighborhood gets the intangibles because they grew up with the same morals and grew up in the same environment . Gangsters weren’t Hollywood caricatures, they were your friends father or neighbor. That’s why when we read something like “ Gotti was afraid of DeMeo , or terrified of Chin, we know it’s just the author being overly dramatic. While some read it and take it literally. “
Your right.. Guys I grew up with, put work in, whatever Flava it might be, but all in all normal tou can say all American guys. The thing is the life, it's all the same thing really in all four corners of the planet,cgive or take. The thing is sooner or later its turns you into a creature for money. All hail mammon the great.
The host claims to know so much about the life but he doesn't even realize at times he's being and showing disrespect to his guest. It's unintentional of course but it would be considered that. It's small but is a sign of disrespect nonetheless
Gotta admit it Michael ... I've listened to all your shows. Though never in the life, I grew up in, around and seen it. You're honest and you have that same personality that us a few years younger than you remember. Shit I can't find myself disliking or hating you at all, I tried pal based on our culture and upbringing ... But you are the only MAN on social media that has been humble and honest. God bless 🙏 Mikey ... If you ever wanted to know why everyone loved you, Shit pal hit replay on all the videos. Only God can judge us all ... F everything and everyone who thinks otherwise.
Great insight by Mikey at 47:00 regarding "fear" and whether Gotti was afraid to kill DeMeo. As Mikey points out, even if Gotti had been afraid of DeMeo, that would have made him *more* likely to kill him, not less, because we kill to protect ourselves from things that we're afraid of. And for that very reason, Mikey also points out that being feared is not always a good thing in the mob because when you make people scared, they want to clip you.
Albert Anastasi would agree with you if he was alive. When you make yourself too violent and unpredictable, everybody knows that you could be the next victim so you have to preempt him.
The story was that John Gotti got the contract for Roy Demeo yet he passed on the hit and the hit went to Frank Decicco I didn't know you could pass on a hit I'm still try understand that one
Not scared but definitely wary I mean why did the whole family pass off the hit three times usually your family is the one that does you in but they made casso and the Gemini twins do it
Great to have a legit Mafioso explain the life. Does Mickey Scars have any passed down stories on Vincent Mangano?..... also Curious on what his thoughts on Joe Bonanno and what he heard growing up on the streets???
These days I don't think the danger is there as much that you're going to be popped in the head, but back in the day up to the 90s that would be a real and scary thought
As a huge mafia researcher and amateur historian and grandson of Puerto rican immigrants from NYC, I gotta say getting these stories from a real street guy at the level of Mikey Scars is amazing!! I’m happy as hell I found this channel!! After years of hearing stories about this gentleman finally we’re getting to hear things straight from the man himself! Looking forward to hearing more!!
@@Tylermobfamilyhistory you’re right of course they were Americans not immigrants as all Puerto Ricans are they came from Spain to Puerto Rico then almost directly to NYC.
Both of my parents grew up in Jersey and my mom lived in a wiseguy neighborhood. This stuff has always been very interesting to me. Mikie is very articulate and gives a great insight into a life that few people ever experience. Great podcast!!!!
What part of Jersey..I'm from Newark and North and East Ward sections of Newark was Wise Guy territory social clubs and all also Vaslesburg and Belvelil
I'm for Newark New Jersey please sir for the sake of comparison what part of Jersey you are talking.... Newark, Jersey City , Bayonne, Hoboken were strong
Gotti would have reached out to the Colombo’s and Greg Scarpa would have clipped Roy/Gemini Crew on the same night. There’s Violent and then there’s Colombo Violent.
@@MikeyScarsNOEXCUSES The logic I was using was to insulate the Borgata from the hit. I also factored in John’s relationship with Vic, and Greg, owing The Bull a favor for the Bar incident. In the end with Roy it did stay in house I forgot that completely. I stand corrected.
Im curious to hear Mikey's opinion on little Al diarko luchese Captain.. Little Al says that Sammy and alot of the Gambino's were duckin him and how scared of they were of the luchese hitters..just curious
I need to start watching these channels again and making mob videos but I got caught up in that mobtube garbage (got 17 vids on ice too 🙄 so may as well upload) but in regards to this video I didn't think Mikey would class Spero as a good guy. I've heard too many bad things about that guy. Maybe I've missed something as I've been listening but has Mikey ever met Gaspipe and Amusso and if not who's the toughest, craziest, threatening and fearsome gangster he ever met? Btw this format of getting Mikey Scars "out there" has grown on me and I'm enjoying the videos a bit more but I still wanna hear this man sit down Sammy the bull Gravano style and tell stories.
Mikey do u think gotti Jr will ever be on youtube to tell old stories I seen his witsec mafia vids have u seen or spoke to gotti Jr since u cooperated with the feds and what I respect about u Mike is u don't make any excuses like others examples ghost told me to do it or I did it because someone bad mouth me on tapes u own up to it and say u regret doing it I like that cuz ur not making excuses to why u cooperated most do it so don't end up locked up for life without parole or to get feds protect them from being killed I think that why pennissi cooperated if u could take it back would u not cooperated and is that the biggest regret of ur life
@@ryanevans126 I'd put up Michaels best videos against Sammys best videos any day. The Sammy stuff has been told countless times. Plus its clear Sammy has run out of content, I mean how many times can you tell the story of wacking paul?
Fanastic talk and great questions and answers. I always felt the same as RJ when it came to these statements that John was somehow afraid of Roy DeMeo. Sammy even said when asked if John was a tough guy or would he personally kill someone that John would kill you in a hot second if he had to. Doesn't sound like John was too afraid to me. If you're so afraid of guys then maybe you're in the wrong line of work. When it comes to shooters and/or tough guys all I can say is there's a whole lot of seriously dangerous guys from that life who have ended up in trunks, in the ground or just never found. Yeah, guys like Greg Scarpa or Anthony Casso were dangerous guys, but they could have gotten taken out just like anyone else. Frankly I'm surprised they weren't. I remember reading about a guy named Sally D'Ambrosio from the Colombos who Sonny Franzese said was "the toughest motherfucker on the streets during his time", but guess what, he got disappeared on Joe Colombo's orders back in 1969. Michael's statement about watch out how much fear you generate in others because it may end up cioming back to get you is so true in that life.
DON , WELL SAID I REMEMBER SALLY D. TOUGH GUY FOR SURE. LOOK GAS FLIPPED , GRAVANO FLIPPED ,SCARPA HAD A LICENSE SINCE THE 50s TO KILL, MANY OTHER MEN WERE KILLED FOR BEING TOO TOUGH..THAT YOU FOR YOUR INPUT
I dont think Gotti was scared of Demeo but I think he was weary of him because he was a psycho who killed multiple people & his crew were stone cold killers as well where as Gotti some people say he never actually killed anyone.
The bell that rang the loudest for me was when Michael stood over his brother's grave that mind you was murdered by the Mafia. He said this is the life he chose. This is the life we chose. This is Cosa Nostra
Heyyy awesome 💯 great content Listen history is so important just in general.. if you sit down and learn a lil about history and see how often it can repeat itself.. in different but the same ways over and over..yeah you can tell Michaels a down to earth smart and funny guy
According to Phillip Carlos book Gaspipe , Gotti and his crew was offered the contract but they denied the action to partake in the contract. As a person who has read many books and spoke with some family and friends Roys crew known as Murder Machine who were highly involved in contract killing and even after Nino was told by Paul that Roy has to stop he did not. Read the book Murder Machine. It's from Nino Gaggis' nephew Dominick Montiglios view who was never made and basically was a bag men for Nino who sold drugs to make money. The catch is that Nino didn't even make his nephew who lived in the same house as Nino. Dominick is Nino's sisters child. After the sit down at Tomasso's with Coonan, Featherstone, and Paul, Tom, and Neil I know that night Mickey had a grenade in his pocket. The westies answered and worked a lot with Roy before Roy was taken care of and they answered to Marino after Roy. Both crews were known for the Houdini which was body dismemberment and scattering the body parts all over the city. I know this for a fact that the Westies did not fear Gotti and his crew at all. Yes they were wild cowboys. Roy's connections to just straight killers were far more deadly then Gotti and his crew. I think that Gotti was extremely smart by not taking that contract. You all have to understand Roy had a massive car theft ring and then they would sell the stolen cars to Kuwait. Where his chop shop was located was in the heart of the Lucchesse families chop shops and thats how Gaspipe was able to coerce the Gemini Twins into taking out Roy because then they could keep there same status ( remember they could not be made) and have the same protection. They knew that if they did not listen to Gaspipe that they would be involved in the contract. Gaspipe had Napeleon complex for sure. He had something to prove because he was behind the Frank Deciccio hit that was met for Gotti ordered by the Chin and made to look like zips did it
Mike, Im so glad you cleared that up about Gotti fearing roy demeo. You hear it a lot in the doc's and it NEVER made sense to me. It seemed that it would be very out of character for gotti and finally now we know it was nonsense. Thanks
That environment can never be understood (to certain people) if you did not grow up in Staten Island , Brooklyn, Bronxs, Queens, Nyc even Jersey - everyone was connected- or knew someone close to them who was connected.. 60s, 70s & 80s was a free for all for mobsters. The candy stores ,social clubs on every block. Kids hung on corners. No crime in the neighborhoods. Those times are in time capsule. Never to return . Some great memories.
It makes perfect sense! You may not be a shooter but if you are the only guy who can get near the person that has to go. You are getting called up. Great show!
Michael, you guys can check I don’t subscribe to any channel and I hardly ever comment on anything anyone does but I can see that pain in you you’re a great guy, but no matter what in your head you always resort back to yeah but I ratted Michael it’s over with who gives a fuck I don’t care who and what tells you whatever 90% of guys in your position would’ve done the same fucking thing, so they can talk tough and everyone can see the stand the other but People like John Gotti are iconic once in a lifetime people, Michael, I’m thankful and I love that you are telling the truth and putting true facts behind things and exposing that Sammy is just same old Sammy Just maybe not as much murder because he’s an old timer Michael God bless you and I’ll see a prayer for you and your family. Genuinely I had shared a comment about my brother getting murdered and it literally crashed my whole family someone getting murdered you feel like they’re taken from you he was a firefighter for Boston for over 20 years. You can look up his name, Michael Ricci he lived in Marshfield Massachusetts, Michael, I see that you have such a warm heart that when you even mention the situation about your brother, I can see the seriousness on your face and I don’t even think RJ catches it sometimes how serious you are meaning how deep we had affected your life. I will tell you something, Michael I am a criminal. I have change for years now I done a lot of time, By nature, I’m supposed to hate you, but I don’t I honest to God don’t even think of that you told anybody at all when I watch your videos it doesn’t even come across my head unless you mention it Michael, please let it go. We love you you’re growing a fan base Maybe this was your calling if you look in the Bible, there are situations where prophets did not want to be in the position they were in like Jeremiah he wanted to get married But God had other plans for him and he had to do a guy wanted even though he didn’t want it so everything happens for a reason. My friend will be so hard on yourself. You’re a human being. Excuse the bad punctuation in lettering. I’m using talk to text because I’m driving. Keep up the good work you guys are doing
@@MikeyScarsNOEXCUSES I worded that terribly. Lol sorry. I meant nobody could get to either position by being “ afraid “ of another man. I might be rambling, lol. 😂
Don’t ever let anybody ever try and belittle your character, work ethic, charisma or colour… you research the task at hand and give an unbiased overview of the discussion and present it as honest as can be. Also having Mikey Scars along side of you make’s you even more believable. Keep up the good work because anyone with half a brain knows you don’t have a dog in the race unlike some of these other people who lie through there teeth trying to sell bats or tops to get subscribers. Keep it real kid and you can only get better. Good luck to you 😂😊

And there should be shame on the Gambino's for letting the demeo crew get that out of hand

Michael is a living proof, i can’t wait to hear more about dellacroce he was a man’s man… great show keep killing it 💪🏼
TY FOR LISTENING TO OUR SHOW
Lucy Luciano - boss
Frank Castello -consilere
Vito genovese - underboss
This was the best team
The quote was from Gene gotti on a wiretap saying "roy was surrounded by an army of killers." I don't think the gotti crew was "afraid" of Roy, just he had a lot of dangerous guys around him and that should be taken into consideration if we do go after him.
Yes, I remember reading that. Sammy and his crew turned the job down because he had a whole crew of dangerous guys and they could also smell out things that make getting close to them very difficult, they weren't coming in to any sitdows figuring that out could be a hit. Like going after the President of some banana Republic vs trying to get the president of a nuclear armed country.
Sammy eventually farmed the job out to Tommy karate, only one who could get close to him. They both were serial killers who enjoyed "chopping it up" their victims that is. Go figure?
GREAT THANKS GOOD INFO.
I've read only 100 mafia books. How about a history lesson on Gambino family from 1900 on. Pre Mangano and the war. List the bosses and the treachery as you know it.
Can't wait for part 3!!!! You guys are the best on youtube!
TY J
I donr think "AFFRAID' is the right word, he wouldnt have made it to his position had guys like Gravano and Frank Deccico seen that. I think abit more leary and weary of who Demeo was is more like it. I think had it gotten that far out of hand (it got crazy) but, had they been able to find nobdy to kill him they would have cotacted Scarpa of Casso (possibly both) to take care of business and either , Scarpa or Casso would have tortured him to set an example. FAR STRETCH i know, but i think it wouldve had to of been done to show hey this is code. I dont think John Gotti was scared i think he was more leary just like every else was had they of known of a guy who cut up hundreds of bodies "they say" and feasted while the bodies were sliced up and or draining decapitated hanging up. Its somethjng out of a horror movie, i think Joey Testa and Anthony Senter were more affraid of the threat they recieved had they not of killed Roy Demeo. I think they knew somebody they woukdve had to of taken Demeo out i mean come on no way anybody wouldve thought spmething like that couldve lasted a life time. So i think that Gaspipe was way more intimidating than Roy Demeo obvooulsy the Gemini Twins thought so. OR AND THIS IS A BIG OR is they would have hired somebody of a dirrent race or an outsider to do the work. Pick the entire Gemini Crew off slowly bc think of it its somethung none of them would have seen coming.
i gotta say that i really never knew much about michael (aside from the bad mouthing i heard from the junior gotti interviews) … but now after watching his content and listening to him break down the life and speak in general firstly he’s extremely intelligent and that comes off just in the way he speaks and in his vernacular and IMO his breakdown of the life is spot on and he is truly speaking the truth through his experiences during his time in the life and ge is a pleasure to listen to i really have grown to like the guy and he seems like an awesome guy to sit down and just shoot the shit with him for hours and he honestly does MAKE NO EXCUSES and you HAVE TO RESPECT THAT!! - also excellent job to RJ for the way he puts the content together and his knowledge through research of the life bravo lots of luck w the new channel fellas salute 🇮🇹🙏🏻🙌🏼❤️🩹
TONY ,THAT WAS SPECIAL, TY, THERE ARE OTHER MEN OUT THERE THAT HAVE THE SAME OUTLOOK , GOOD GUYS THAT DON'T KILL TO GET WHAT THEY WANT..PROCESS RIGHT AND WRONG..THAT IS WHEN THAT LIFE CAN BE GOOD TY AGAIN
I don't remember hearing John Jr ever badmouth him publicly. Maybe he can't say it outright but I have a feeling John is the type who was understanding and would be forgiving, knowing Michael didn't want to do what he did. Probably not a situation where speculation is necessarily appropriate, but oh well.

Paul gulino was wrong to touch him
The story about John being "afraid" of Roy came from a wire tap. Gene gotti and Angelo were talking about how Paul was floating the idea about killing Roy with John and that John was cautious because he knew Roy was a dangerous guy, and he'd have to be careful. That is way different than being afraid of someone.
100 PER CENT TY
Gotti wasn't afraid of anything or anybody. I believe he respected some more than others for their abilities. If he walked into a room where some of you hang out you'd be in awe and shit your pants also want to say that a Gangster doesn't have to kill anyone to be a Gangster. I don't understand why people on these forums are so obsessed with killing and if you didn't you're not a real gangster. Most people will pull a trigger. You have to be "capable" to be a Wiseguy.
CAPABLE OF..CORRECT
More Great Stories About The Mob Love The Content Always Watching Now
Rj and Mike great job with research on are Rj part. Mike on his experience, story’s, knowledge of the life.
Two months ago, I was fortunate enough to see my first episode of what I believe is such a great compination of truth and sincerity, Intelligence, and a guy who not only asks great questions, but is bright enough to allow Michael to answer, without interrupting. Easy listening, you guys are together. So glad to be a part of what you two are doing . Mr. Michael, you are about 7 or 8 years ahead of me in this thing called life. Like you, I always had older gents as friends. I was a big golf guy in the 70's as and beyond. Because I was good, I always played with guys that were better than I. not only did I become a better golfer and one time professional, I would be involved in their conversations, and hang on every word that they would say, because I was smart enough to know that I need to put a lot of the stuff in my back pocket, because these guys have been here longer than me, which means they know more than me. I remember one episode you were talking about that was hanging out with the guys older than you. it's been my advice to younger people for a long time. as I have said, keep doing what you guys are doing, it's entertaining, it's intelligent, and it's real . God bless you both always.JD

That's wisdom there , " be careful of the fear U instill in someone because it may come back to bite U".
I'd never thought of it that way .
TY BRAD
I am glad that you pointed out that John Gotti was not afraid of Roy Demeo. John Gotti might have been leery about Roy, because Roy was very unpredictable and violent and I’m sure that Roy felt the same way about Gotti. You are correct in pointing out that when you get a reputation of being too violent and unpredictable that you are setting yourself up to be killed, just like what happened to Albert Anastasia in 1957.
Anybody from a urban working class neighborhood gets the intangibles because they grew up with the same morals and grew up in the same environment . Gangsters weren’t Hollywood caricatures, they were your friends father or neighbor. That’s why when we read something like “ Gotti was afraid of DeMeo , or terrified of Chin, we know it’s just the author being overly dramatic. While some read it and take it literally. “
VERY WELL SAID
Your right.. Guys I grew up with, put work in, whatever Flava it might be, but all in all normal tou can say all American guys. The thing is the life, it's all the same thing really in all four corners of the planet,cgive or take. The thing is sooner or later its turns you into a creature for money. All hail mammon the great.
The host claims to know so much about the life but he doesn't even realize at times he's being and showing disrespect to his guest. It's unintentional of course but it would be considered that. It's small but is a sign of disrespect nonetheless
Gotta admit it Michael ... I've listened to all your shows. Though never in the life, I grew up in, around and seen it. You're honest and you have that same personality that us a few years younger than you remember. Shit I can't find myself disliking or hating you at all, I tried pal based on our culture and upbringing ... But you are the only MAN on social media that has been humble and honest. God bless 🙏 Mikey ... If you ever wanted to know why everyone loved you, Shit pal hit replay on all the videos. Only God can judge us all ... F everything and everyone who thinks otherwise.
VINCENT I'M HUMBLED BY YOUR COMMENTS GREAT THANKS ,SHARE ANY STORIES ABOUT THE NABE WHEN YOU HAVE A CHANCE TY
I’m starting to like these guys. No Diddy!
Great insight by Mikey at 47:00 regarding "fear" and whether Gotti was afraid to kill DeMeo. As Mikey points out, even if Gotti had been afraid of DeMeo, that would have made him *more* likely to kill him, not less, because we kill to protect ourselves from things that we're afraid of. And for that very reason, Mikey also points out that being feared is not always a good thing in the mob because when you make people scared, they want to clip you.
Albert Anastasi would agree with you if he was alive. When you make yourself too violent and unpredictable, everybody knows that you could be the next victim so you have to preempt him.
It worked out ok for Gaspipe and Chin.😂
Meh. That's still a generalization. Alot of people AVOID what they're scared of
The story was that John Gotti got the contract for Roy Demeo yet he passed on the hit and the hit went to Frank Decicco I didn't know you could pass on a hit I'm still try understand that one
Do you think Sammy was jealous and feared Louie Mileto? I do! Please answer. Thanks
MY OPINION IS COMING
You typed “Frankie Cheetos” in the chapter description and that was not his name 🙄
I’ve always felt the reason Gotti didn’t want to hit Roy D because he felt Roy would have seen him coming.
THOMAS AGREE HIS CREW COULDN'T CALL ROY FOR AN APPOINTMENT
That and they were watching Roy,everyone knew it too. A hit on Roy would bring pics names indictments etc
@@MikeyScarsNOEXCUSES probably because he knew they had been given the hit
Not scared but definitely wary I mean why did the whole family pass off the hit three times usually your family is the one that does you in but they made casso and the Gemini twins do it
Great to have a legit Mafioso explain the life.
Does Mickey Scars have any passed down stories on Vincent Mangano?..... also Curious on what his thoughts on Joe Bonanno and what he heard growing up on the streets???
I would have much rather seen Franky be the boss instead of John
I have a question- How can you ever get into the front seat of a car when you have a wise guy sitting behind you?
Is true tomie karate was only man never have a made man sit behind him in a car
These days I don't think the danger is there as much that you're going to be popped in the head, but back in the day up to the 90s that would be a real and scary thought
25 presidents been what??? I don't think that's right...lol
As a huge mafia researcher and amateur historian and grandson of Puerto rican immigrants from NYC, I gotta say getting these stories from a real street guy at the level of Mikey Scars is amazing!!

Gotti would have reached out to the Colombo’s and
Greg Scarpa would have clipped Roy/Gemini Crew on the same night.
There’s Violent and then there’s Colombo Violent.
NEVER WOULD HAVE WENT OUTSIDE
@@MikeyScarsNOEXCUSES
The logic I was using was to insulate the Borgata from the hit. I also factored in John’s relationship with Vic,
and Greg, owing The Bull
a favor for the Bar incident.
In the end with Roy
it did stay in house
I forgot that completely.
I stand corrected.

Im curious to hear Mikey's opinion on little Al diarko luchese Captain.. Little Al says that Sammy and alot of the Gambino's were duckin him and how scared of they were of the luchese hitters..just curious
NONSENSE..THE LUKES HAD MANY LEGIT KILLERS, WHY WOULD ANYONE DUCK?
I need to start watching these channels again and making mob videos but I got caught up in that mobtube garbage (got 17 vids on ice too 🙄 so may as well upload) but in regards to this video I didn't think Mikey would class Spero as a good guy. I've heard too many bad things about that guy. Maybe I've missed something as I've been listening but has Mikey ever met Gaspipe and Amusso and if not who's the toughest, craziest, threatening and fearsome gangster he ever met? Btw this format of getting Mikey Scars "out there" has grown on me and I'm enjoying the videos a bit more but I still wanna hear this man sit down Sammy the bull Gravano style and tell stories.
TOUGH AND CRAZY ARE TWO DIFFERENT THINGS , YES I KNEW THEM
Michael has quickly established himself as the best former mob guy channel on YT.

Yh I say his and sammy are the best I think there the only ex mob guys I watch can't get into others I think if gotti Jr had a channel I'd watch that
Mikey do u think gotti Jr will ever be on youtube to tell old stories I seen his witsec mafia vids have u seen or spoke to gotti Jr since u cooperated with the feds and what I respect about u Mike is u don't make any excuses like others examples ghost told me to do it or I did it because someone bad mouth me on tapes u own up to it and say u regret doing it I like that cuz ur not making excuses to why u cooperated most do it so don't end up locked up for life without parole or to get feds protect them from being killed I think that why pennissi cooperated if u could take it back would u not cooperated and is that the biggest regret of ur life

Man Michael has so much wisdom. Really smart deep thinker! Never get bored of listening to Mike.
Today, funs here will love you more than at the beginning
Give us new videos
Fanastic talk and great questions and answers. I always felt the same as RJ when it came to these statements that John was somehow afraid of Roy DeMeo. Sammy even said when asked if John was a tough guy or would he personally kill someone that John would kill you in a hot second if he had to. Doesn't sound like John was too afraid to me. If you're so afraid of guys then maybe you're in the wrong line of work. When it comes to shooters and/or tough guys all I can say is there's a whole lot of seriously dangerous guys from that life who have ended up in trunks, in the ground or just never found. Yeah, guys like Greg Scarpa or Anthony Casso were dangerous guys, but they could have gotten taken out just like anyone else. Frankly I'm surprised they weren't. I remember reading about a guy named Sally D'Ambrosio from the Colombos who Sonny Franzese said was "the toughest motherfucker on the streets during his time", but guess what, he got disappeared on Joe Colombo's orders back in 1969. Michael's statement about watch out how much fear you generate in others because it may end up cioming back to get you is so true in that life.
DON , WELL SAID I REMEMBER SALLY D. TOUGH GUY FOR SURE. LOOK GAS FLIPPED , GRAVANO FLIPPED ,SCARPA HAD A LICENSE SINCE THE 50s TO KILL, MANY OTHER MEN WERE KILLED FOR BEING TOO TOUGH..THAT YOU FOR YOUR INPUT
Didn't scarpa get his eye shot out by a fat white associate kid called moran
I dont think Gotti was scared of Demeo but I think he was weary of him because he was a psycho who killed multiple people & his crew were stone cold killers as well where as Gotti some people say he never actually killed anyone.
MO DON'T BELIEVE THOSE FALSE STORIES TY
The bell that rang the loudest for me was when Michael stood over his brother's grave that mind you was murdered by the Mafia. He said this is the life he chose. This is the life we chose. This is Cosa Nostra

TY CHAMPS!
According to Phillip Carlos book Gaspipe , Gotti and his crew was offered the contract but they denied the action to partake in the contract. As a person who has read many books and spoke with some family and friends Roys crew known as Murder Machine who were highly involved in contract killing and even after Nino was told by Paul that Roy has to stop he did not. Read the book Murder Machine. It's from Nino Gaggis' nephew Dominick Montiglios view who was never made and basically was a bag men for Nino who sold drugs to make money. The catch is that Nino didn't even make his nephew who lived in the same house as Nino. Dominick is Nino's sisters child. After the sit down at Tomasso's with Coonan, Featherstone, and Paul, Tom, and Neil I know that night Mickey had a grenade in his pocket. The westies answered and worked a lot with Roy before Roy was taken care of and they answered to Marino after Roy. Both crews were known for the Houdini which was body dismemberment and scattering the body parts all over the city. I know this for a fact that the Westies did not fear Gotti and his crew at all. Yes they were wild cowboys. Roy's connections to just straight killers were far more deadly then Gotti and his crew. I think that Gotti was extremely smart by not taking that contract. You all have to understand Roy had a massive car theft ring and then they would sell the stolen cars to Kuwait. Where his chop shop was located was in the heart of the Lucchesse families chop shops and thats how Gaspipe was able to coerce the Gemini Twins into taking out Roy because then they could keep there same status ( remember they could not be made) and have the same protection. They knew that if they did not listen to Gaspipe that they would be involved in the contract. Gaspipe had Napeleon complex for sure. He had something to prove because he was behind the Frank Deciccio hit that was met for Gotti ordered by the Chin and made to look like zips did it
Population Zero from the Patreon Crew The notion comes from Gaspipes comments
Great content fellas. Mikey your stories are exponentially better than any script that will ever come out of hollywood!
