The world of mobsters has been so romanticized in movies, even though we see there is catastrophic price to pay for it, we always root for them anyway. There is just something about how that world is portrayed that seems to cut through the inability to make a decision on how to proceed. The rules are very simple and everyone follows them, lest they wanna..."sleep wit da fishes"
Dude what are you talking about most guys were breaking rules all the time. Selling drugs, not kicking up what they should, sleeping with other guys wifes, ripping off Other made guys, putting bad wires on guys
I have heard Michael say in several interviews, that the guys in that lifestyle were not evil, only the lifestyle is evil. When you take the oath to join, you know it is organized crime, and murder, extortion, violence and robbery is the norm, and if given the order to kill someone, you do it. You have to be evil to want to get into that lifestyle, knowing what it entails. Normal people don’t do the things they did.
Not neccesary, it's romanticized and sold as kind of a secret society of knights in a way with its own traditions and values , it's not sold as ghetto gangsterism. They all agree on how and when someone is to be killed and know it applies to them. That said it def attracts psychos.
Michael always says he joined the life to help his father. But I've never heard anything about him joining the mafia, actually helped his father .....🤷
He wasn't a boss in the sense of being the boss of a whole family but he was a capo in the Colombo family and having that position means that you are the boss of your own crew of guys.
@@Biggestkidyouknow someone like Anthony Spero was a captain and a boss of his neighborhood, that’s what your referring too, but Michael was never like that anywhere in NYC, even when he was an acting capo
It’s started bothering me how well respected this guy is, especially in the podcasting sphere. Sure, he has some interesting things to tell, but he used to be one of the worst kinds of criminals. Please don’t treat him as some voice of authority.

@@Biggestkidyouknow ... Did you happen to read my closing line? If so, do you know what the very last words mean?
@@NinjaKittyBonks yeah and they aren’t killed for them. Most guys who’s are killed it’s over power, they find an excuse to have them killed

Love Michael, listen to himm all the time smart man❤
Michael always says he joined the life to help his father. But I've never heard anything about him joining the mafia, actually helped his father .....🤷
Listen at 12:25 and on, he explains it
Money are you slow… I don’t love everything he says but his dad needed money to fight his case
I HONOUR THIS SPACE IN WHICH YOU EXIST.
The hierarchy of Cosa Nostra in America is different than in Italy, much more simplified 🤔
But his Dad didn't serve 50 yrs...it's not true ...he served about 29yrs total
Hey Mike. Ur looking, and sounding a little bit tired brother... I totally enjoyed 'blood covenant" and I'm loving "Mafia democracy" now!
What's up with Michael's voice? Is he alright?
They didn' t offer u a sweet candy?!
LOVE MICHEAL HOPE YOU GET BACK FROM UK OK MICHEAL> ALL THE BEST LIVERPOOL BANK ROBBER TO Hollywood Butler
Lots of keyboard warrior's that know michael better than michael
Never mind the lies about being a Boss
He wasn't a boss in the sense of being the boss of a whole family but he was a capo in the Colombo family and having that position means that you are the boss of your own crew of guys.
@@josephsharp5678 yeah that means that you are a capo regime not a mob boss
@@richardworth836capos are often referred to as bosses. They are not the boss but many people have to do what they say.
@@richardworth836 Correct.
Mob boss 🤣🤣🤣
A captain is kind of a neighborhood boss
@@Biggestkidyouknow he was never a boss, or neighborhood boss…stop it
@@Biggestkidyouknow someone like Anthony Spero was a captain and a boss of his neighborhood, that’s what your referring too, but Michael was never like that anywhere in NYC, even when he was an acting capo
😊👍👍😊
Stop saying he was a boss, he likes to pretend he was a captain no boss
He defo was a capo tho its out there if u look but he certainly wasn't a bosa
A capo Is a street boss. He never refers himself to be the Boss of a family.
@@tishkelly5474he was never a Captain he was only ever an acting captain for his dad
@@tishkelly5474he says he was made a Captain in 1980, that would make him 29 and the youngest captain in Columbo history
It's Colombo spell it right !!!!@@Biggestkidyouknow
They sure went off the rails at the end with the religious bigot stuff.
