This is one of the best interviews I've seen Michael Franzese do. Probably because you didn't interrupt him and just let him speak. Great work I've subscribed !
Nice one Theo thanks for the feedback and welcome to the CCP family!!
@@terrystone743 You're welcome and thank you.
@@theo7493
the only thing is he never offers anything new its always the same old story,im sure he must have something else that he hasnt shared with the public.
I’ve seen a lot of Micheal’s interviews and this is one of the best ones. No doubt!!!
This man is nearly 73, I hope I look half as good with a memory half as good and I would be doing well when I reach 73. Love your interviewing style Terry, you don't talk over the guest , you try and let the chat flow, whilst probing in a way we can see into the character. Enjoyed the way Michael did not oversell the life and showed the good and bad side of such a life.
Thanks Nicky
I can’t believe he’s 73, he doesn’t look a day younger than 50.
Very engaging interview and the fact Michael was cracking jokes himself shows how comfortable he was. A brilliant interview my friend.
Thanks David!
Dunno, I reckon this guy is a fraud. Check out the Dougie Joyce podcast for some proper stories he's lived the hard road and is currently locked up.
@@stevenking8884Michael a fraud??? LMFAO!!! Micheal was the highest earning Mobster in the Mob since alcohol prohibition in the 1920’s. He was bringing in $8-$10 million dollars a week in cash in the late 70’s and 80’s. This happened for about 8 years. He was kicking up about $2 million dollars a week to Persico Jr. Micheal is the furthest thing from a fraud. He was a Capo,Captain,in the Columbo crime family and his dad was the Underboss under Joe Columbo and Tom DeBella. Micheal is the real deal.
Wow he looks well for 72..fair play 👏🏼👏🏼
He aged better than most people ive seen
Loving this one Terry . I get the pleasure to meet Michael next week after one of his talks which I can’t wait for
The dangerous thing for young people about that life is that they see the glory but don’t see and understand, the story. How much is years in prison worth?
What a sad life.
True Story
Michael looks good for 73.
Amazing mate!
Well his dad lived to be 103. He would of probably lived longer if he didn’t catch Covid
He looks fantastic! He also resembles his Mom.
This was a great interview I could listen to Micheal all day he's very well spoken and tells a good story ✌️
He's a superb guest
@@terrystone743 100% top class Terry
My favourite podcaster by far
Thanks Josh
Was hesitant to watch this at first purely because I’ve watched every Franzese podcast there is but this has been brilliant. Hooked every minute along the way and felt like I learned a few new things
We aim to please David and thanks for the comments!
Same here.....Forgetttaboutitttt!
“Well I’m gunna kiss your ring Michael” 😂 Michaels a great guest, great interview 👍
Thanks mate he was a fantastic guest
He is a class act. He breaks a lot of misconceptions of what a mafia captain might be. Stay blessed !!
Thanks Michael he is and you stay blessed too!
He’s a snitch
@@alexbelotti1603 I guess you ‘cudda been a contender’
@@alexbelotti1603 whatever your thoughts, at least he achieved. Feel free to list your life’s accomplishments !!! I’m sure you can afford a post-it note 😎
@@alexbelotti1603 He snitched on no one.

40’s to 80’s LCN ran our country let alone NYC. Awesome interview.
Thanks for the feedback Tony
Ran the country? And they are all dead or in jail. Thye didn’t run cudda. U watch too many movies
Yea they did end up like that because the government don't like competition@@joeplonka6568
“If Biden says the sun is shining I’m gny bring an umbrella with me”😂
Substitute Trump and I agree.
Unrelated, but in the pictures and film of the JFK assassination, there's a man holding an umbrella, dubbed the 'umbrella man' and brought the umbrella because it was going to be very sunny that day. Didn't want the sun in his face
Love michael, great interview x
Nice one Zac
Awesome interview, very pleasant & professional 🍻👍. Mausoleum is a CLASSIC!!!
Nice one Daniel

I have watched a number of Michaels podcast and this is the best by far he comes across as a genuine person a real man I also think there is stories he would like to tell but is loyalty still to his father and his associates stops him brilliant podcast mate

Amazing Moose love this message, thanks mate!!
Great Episode Tel. Love the Gangster ones. Felt the Dougie Joyce one although still interesting was abit like being in your mates kitchen at 5am listening to a bloke talk about all his fights. Loved this one and looking forward to the next.
Thanks for the feedback Jamie every week it's different we are always trying to mix it up.
@@terrystone743 channels brilliant mate, like your films your making content we all want to see.
Love that sponsor Dr green, cannabis is an awesome medicine, and can't wait to watch this one, the ring kiss was hilarious 😂😂 this guest goes hand in hand with the show, podfather meets the godfather...cheers Terry I'm off to get a takeaway and will sit and watch it..hope your good mate👊👊
Amazing mate let me know what you think it's one of the best guests we've had on!
@@terrystone743 will do mate thanks for taking the time to do this, always appreciated, will share on Facebook too👌👊👊
Amazing!@@DJRYATT
The podfather 😂…non of us can claim that title that goes swiftly to David Winer, Adam Curry and Christophe Lydon 💪💯
It's mine now!
Solid fella...👌💯... Need sum good pizza in this country for sure...
We need a full episode on wilf pine and the man with the gucci walking stick.. rarely hear about the genovese family
He died a few years back so that won't happen unfortunately
@@terrystone743 yea but there could be an episode about his life rather than an interview
The podfather meets the godfather 🤣🤣🤣🤣
What an interview Terry, @michaelfranzese could listen to you talk all day,
He's amazing what a guest!
Great interview.
Thank you for the feedback
Rate enjoyed that..
Thanks
The NY families surprisingly had very little to do with Las Vegas (Besides Myer Lansky but he eventually moved to Miami). It was actually Florida, New Orleans, Chicago & Detroit families (Milwaukee & St. Louis were represented under them) which had invested heavily into Casino's. Drawing upon their prior experience with gambling operations in Cuba. Using their control of The Teamster's Union Pension fund as well as delegates of various construction & hospitality Locals.
This is the one iv been waiting for
Nice one thanks Paul 🥂
@@CriminalConnectionPodcast I remember asking you while ago see if you could get him on the podcast. Class mate
Two complete legends
Thanks brother
how is he a legend? he murdered people and has been milking it for all its worth ever since people wouldn't like it if a serial killer made money of his murders
Wowww this pod cast is bye far number 1 pod cast 💪🫶🏼❤️👍
Thanks Patrick appreciate the feedback mate ❤
Should of made a film on Michael
I wonder if he gave franzese a copy of rise of the footsoldier 25
I couldn't because we haven't made that yet, its probably 18 years away from being made!
You have to make it you can't retire the best wig in the history of cinema
This was a top podcast well done you will find it hard to top this one.
Thanks for the feedback Graeme appreciated buddy
Another great interview
Nice one Sash
3 min into the pod and i remember you…you had hair in “The Rise of The Footsoldier” 🙌🏻
That's me mate but it was dodgy hair
@@terrystone743i rewatched the movie and it seems so XD
Terry get Franzese to watch Rise of The Footsoilder and see what he thinks of it.
He loves it
@@terrystone743 seeing you and him together on here first thing popped up in my head was wonder if he's watched ROTFS.
He's truely a very interesting guest seen all his Podcasts.
Thanks @@davidcorbett341
Think Michael will be offended by the amount of use of a certain word c,c,c,c***t 😂
Class act on today !
Sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@terrystone743maybe because she mention he would be on March again Here
Brilliant terry could have listened to you both for hours brilliant podcast
Thanks Peter we could have carried on for 5 hours but there's always a part 2
It definitely needs a part 2 this is one of them you know there is so much more you want to know and listen to 👍
Terry has all the contacts the UK's pod/godfather 😂
Excellent content
Nice one!
Amazing
Nice one!
Great podcast but I honestly coudnt listen to Micheal for over 6 minutes. Is there any chance of making a Dougie Joyce part 2?
That would be great
Michael is great I could listen to him for 6 hours!! When Dougie comes out of jail he may want to come on and do a part 2, you never know. If he does he can answer the various questions that people have raised in the comments of that episode and we can go into the details of the crime he committed and the aftermath.
Tone
It was an absolute fackin liberty you weren’t in the latest footsoldier movie , it was like a fish n chips without the chips , but anyway you’re smashing the pod father role now so fuck it
Keep up the great work 💥
Thanks Rammer_Dan I agree mate but to be honest this is a lot more fun and I don't have to wear silly wigs or Muscle Suits !!!!!!!!
@@terrystone743 best wishes, thanks 👍
Michael sounds like a Harvard graduate ..Amazing...
Mike looks more gangster now.
Tremendous interview Terry and I love how you let Micheal speak as does he to you. Such a great insight to his life and your podcast is better than your movies Terry 🤣🤣 joking aside hoping to get to go see Micheal in Glasgow were we have had Don cornflakes but to be in a room with this fella would be powerful
Amazing feedback thanks Andrew.
@@terrystone743 No worries Terry it’s a pleasure, loved you in the ROTFS movies you stole the show as Tony Tucker.
M dougie Joyce to this legend..... Wow
Different Guests every week!
Arrh Terry you've out done yourself again Mate, Top guest live chat was good missed the CCP Family ❤
Thanks Pad
A lot of new secret information from Michael, great interview!
Nice one
A pair of gentlemen. Brilliant interview. Michael is definitely tuned in to the British sense of humour. Keep ‘em coming Tel 👍
Nice one Guido thanks for the feedback!
What I like about Terry stone is he gets all the major players, Michael franzese ,London gangsters,ex gangsters real life people with pasts and he's a real nice person met him once & he's a top bloke.What would be great if he got Joe pistone aka Donnie brasco on here now that would be a great interview..sorry Terry but Carlton leach talking shit bout you mate
Thanks for your kind words mate it would be great to get Carlton on here talking shit about me in his Mankini
Absolutely loved this, these guys are different to our gangs on a whole, they have morals to an extent but also brutal if u step out of line, that guy who shot himself in the phone box and didn't trust his lifelong friend bcz of how they do things, poor bloke, and the best advice from this guy was your better off being legit nowadays, way to much technology and it's literally a matter of time before your caught. Another quality podcast Terry and I highly recommend this, showing my dad it tomorrow as he's into his mafia stuff👊👊👊
Amazing mate thanks for tuning in!
It's a well known fact that Terry is the Godfather of Spandex
The Don!!
@@terrystone743 So uncouth Terry!!
Michael is the real deal, John Alite is full of it !!!
Better class of guest than than Dougie Joyce!! A real life gangster..and an interesting guy! With real life stories you can believe!
Thanks for the feedback
What in the blue hell! You got Franzese? Awesome.
Forgetaboutit
This was last year?!
This year why was it last year?
How did tel manage to pull this one
I made him an offer he couldn't refuse
@@terrystone743 pukka
Yea pukka

Wait till you see who we've got next week, we are full of surprises we are like a box of chocolates your never gonna know what your going to get!
👍

Excellent podcast and interesting I'm booking tickets for Cardiff 2 watch him live terry also do you think you could interview a gangster friend you know with the wig on in character and rip this piss out of them also they can rip piss 2 it would be legendary
Thanks for the feedback Benjamin glad you enjoyed it. Will see if he's available.
@@terrystone743thats why you are the podfather of UA-cam you respond 2 just normal guy like me I first read about you in dave Courtney's first book then I seen you in the films of course before book then I thought damn it's terry turbo you have lived a wildlife Mr turbo #podfather
He was a bad man and turned good god is the one that protects him now much resepect
Id love to know the part of the gas scheme michael never discloses
We all would, danger is we may then all try and do it and he would get in trouble for telling us!!
@@terrystone743 true
It's ridiculous that man Michael is in his 70s, he's like a man in his 40s.
He must be on the oil of ulay
@@terrystone743 you must have been using that on you noggin Terry it's as smooth as butter. All love terry, I enjoy watching you cave heads in, and nobody says c*nt quite like you 😅
Tell micky mantle to go and pay ur dads rent see what he tells u 👊
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hes never 72,looks mid 50s..looks like bill bob thornton to..enjoying this tho..
I was on about Barden not him cheers
John Alite....wasn't in the Mafia
Ok if you say so
He was a friend of John Gotti jr for a while and that's about it apparently
@terrystone743, clearly, you haven't a clue what you're talking about? ....." OK it you say so " ? What kind of remark is that!?
Oi Oi Tel-pel me ol' Chinaaaaa.
How are you geezer
@@terrystone743 Better off after listening to this back and forth between two legends, thats for sure.
How are you, all robin hood? keep up the good work!
oh bollocks, I've missed the live CCP chat, what a wally, Sorry Terry
