My girlfriend and I spent the last week vacationing in NYC, out of a hotel on Allen Street in Lower Manhattan. We were around the corner from the site of the former Toyland Social Club on Hester Street, and a short walk from both Knickerbocker Village (Monroe and Madison Street) and Little Italy. Even today, it’s not hard to imagine gangsters like Lefty, Tony Mira, Joey Massino and Nicky Glasses occupying street corners in that neighborhood - it has kept much of its authenticity (despite being in the middle of Chinatown). Thanks for a great video on an infamous mobster, Jeff. Awesome content as usual. Best from the Netherlands
I come from a Italian family like that. My mother and father were extremely miserable 24-7. I realize when I got older that it wasn't normal to be like that.
I see a sit down upload I click like. Guaranteed top quality content from a well researched and original perspective and reporting. Literally one of the best true crime journalists and historian to have ever lived. It’s that simple. Loyal subscriber from Essex in England 🏴
Damn Jeff I almost missed this one...and what a good one indeed and to hear you tell it makes it even better... mobster Anthony "Tony" Mirra and what a story it is... thank you so much for bringing it 👍 😎...✨🎇
Jeff you're really doing some good content and touching upon some gangsters that noone else has really gone in depth about. Thanks for the info brother.
Tony Mirra reminds me of what I’ve read about Johnny Ringo the old west gun fighter. He had a void in his soul, he could never steal or kill enough to fill it, it was revenge, and it was revenge for being born. He finally committed suicide. Mirra was a psychopath too.
My uncle Dominic they called him GOVENOR WHAT A MAN HE WAS, I NOTICED IN the tri STATE Area ESPECIALLY ITALIANS WHO CAME 2 THE USA STAYED TOGETHER, LIKE TRENTON EVERY1 was nabladon from barile and secondilano like as a kid they all knew eachother from over there than all stayed in the same towns here RIP UNCLE GREAT SHOW JEFF YOU DONT NEED BARSTOOL PAL GODBLESS LOVE FROM TRENTON NJ
Jeff, i once heard a wire tap were Lefty guns said that he see's Mirra all the time in the elevator. I understand that they came from the same housing complex, but did they live in the same buliding? Missed the first few minutes of the video so forgive me if you answered that alreay.
@The Sitdown : A Crime History Podcast so squirting then Jeff 😉 🤣🤣🤣 in my experience to get the bed soaking, u must really turn them on . Even is she is capable of gushing she won't 🤣🤣🤣🤣
If he flipped did the government ask him to create a beef for Brasco as a ploy to make Donny look more valuable??? If so it’s brilliant if not it doesn’t make sense that they would want or allow Mira to fight for Donny to him bc they already own him..
You gonna try get Richard Cantarella on jeff? Would be worth listening getting interviewed by someone with your knowledge, only seen him once that was on that crank Gunners show and it was terrible.
Mirra was a real creep. Joe Pistone described this animal as a guy they all hated. A real mafia monster, or should I say monstrosity! Good riddance and good video. Jeff really knows his mob! I like this because he shows real arvihal footage and no stupid re-enactments with bad actors. Nice job, Jeff. I am going to watch all your vids. I'm a girl who loves her mob stuff.
R.I.P Tony. A true gentleman who lived life to the fullest. Loyal friend and loving son. No doubt you have one of the best suites in heaven. Sleep well.
Just wanted to know how this guy would know anything about mob people, he's just talking about what he's read from books and has got know first hand experience
I've watched all, I mean ALL of these wise guys podcasts and videos, this particular gentleman articulates and explains details very well, delivery of your plot and point is very important for people to enjoy this type of information and this guy does it well, me being born and raised in Ozone Park queens, he knows who I am and your stories are interesting
Two guys for sure you don't want to get together were Tony Mira and Tommy DeSimone. Granted, they were in different circles/families, but imagine those two at their most ornary hanging out together getting drunk at a bar.
Mirra doted on his dear old mother by all accounts always spent time with her,popped in to see her everyday and drive her to the shops ect when he werent in prison of course.
Best video I’ve seen on this guy . He was a real creep and got what he deserved . Thank you for doing this 😊
appreciate that!
I gotta give it to u man. You tell mob stories, and dont even need the extra graphics and videos, but still keep me interested. Respect
I appreciate that

He and Tony Bananas Coponigro are one of my most interesting stories to follow. Thnx Jeff.
thanks for watching
Maybe we need a story on Tony bananas?!😉
Never heard that he could've been an informant until now! Another great video! Nicely done!👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
I’ve been waiting for you to do one on Mirra or Jilly Greco
Awesome video, great content and facts, ty for staying away from the main stream Donnie brasco ….! I enjoyed the many facts today!
Glad you enjoyed it
Very well researched Jeff.
Thanks for being here

Maybe had a tough upbringing and tough struggle filled life...
Like Livia Soprano?
Probably from life
@@Milne85 David Chase based Livia soprano on his own mother. He made the comment on Talking Sopranos with Michael Imperioli and Steven Shirippa

Glad you enjoyed it!
@@thesitdownwithjeffnaduyour right 8 years and out in 2 years. He definitely was a CI
All families were into contraband.
Thanks Jeff , another superb video ✨🏴🇬🇧
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks pal !
Any time!
This was great Jeff . Really enjoyed this video.
Glad to hear it!
Another excellent, well done, researched podcast Jeff.
Thanks for listening
One hundred per cent
Damn Jeff I almost missed this one...and what a good one indeed and to hear you tell it makes it even better... mobster Anthony "Tony" Mirra and what a story it is... thank you so much for bringing it 👍 😎...✨🎇
This is so good, my bro! Habitual offenders getting short sentences is always sketch af 😂
Yes it is
Jeff is good at explaining. I like the sitdown
Great video
Thanks for the visit
Good show jeff
The thing i like most in your videos is your relax and nice presentation of story so i understood all hi from croatia
Usually with the most hardened mobsters some humanity could be found, but not with this guy.
awesome show
Oh Yea, Tony Mirra was a nutcase!!! Thanks Jeff!! Nicky Crow next week??? Lol🤣🤣
Never heard he was cooperating thanks for the infi your always on point with your videos. Your one of the best in this genre for sure
I appreciate that
@@thesitdownwithjeffnaduon google it shows pictures of Mirra dead 💀 body in the 🚗
Like that NPL T-shirt Jeff! Dollies! Very cool.
Hits very close to home 😮
thanks for watching
Great video Jeff
Glad you enjoyed it
@@thesitdownwithjeffnadu always! Tic Toc is awesome also
Great video as always, but you forgot to mention the stabbing incident with Mirra. In his younger days he was stabbed in a Brooklyn restaurant.
Wasn’t Donnie around Colombos first?
Ya but this isn’t really a video about him
Thanks great video
thanks for watching
If this country's mainstream media did the research and spit out facts half as good as you do, this country would be massively better off
That’s very nice of you. I appreciate it
You're getting better son..... 💪
AMAZING!!!
Jeff you're really doing some good content and touching upon some gangsters that noone else has really gone in depth about. Thanks for the info brother.
Thanks man

How the hell did Mira only get eight years as a repeat offender? Jeff I think your suspicions are well founded.
thanks for watching
Great information and glad you don't get into the slagging matches like your competitors Bedford UK
Glad you enjoyed
That phone incident is so horrible but funny. He didn’t give a shit and showed it.
Jeff how come your Spotify & Apple Podcast aren’t showing new episodes? They’re only showing episodes from 2022.
The REAL Billy Batts was also a part of the ormento group and was arrested alongside Mirra and Carmine Galante at one point 😳
Great show as always Jeff about a not very great guy. Looking forward to Rizzoto tomorrow.
Bro please do Joey Doves for me my birthday coming up on the 28th would be really cool.
Amazing video Jeff, it's wild that he might have been a DEA informant!
I know, right?
My uncle Dominic they called him GOVENOR WHAT A MAN HE WAS, I NOTICED IN the tri STATE Area ESPECIALLY ITALIANS WHO CAME 2 THE USA STAYED TOGETHER, LIKE TRENTON EVERY1 was nabladon from barile and secondilano like as a kid they all knew eachother from over there than all stayed in the same towns here RIP UNCLE GREAT SHOW JEFF YOU DONT NEED BARSTOOL PAL GODBLESS LOVE FROM TRENTON NJ
His face fits his demeanour.
thanks for watching
Awesome Show..Replay❤

Great history, never heard of , Tony Mirro.
thanks for checking out the show Gerard
Loved u on the j.b show ❤
thanks for watching

I'm just telling you what Massino said. He claimed there was paperwork
I’ve heard that before too. Pretty sure that’s entrapment though so wouldn’t be used in court. Amirite Jeff?
What joe said about this
Yea.....I'm half sicilian.....I grew up in an Italian neighbourhood. Pretty miserable neighbourhood
Tony throwing a chair in a courtroom
What a maniac
In my opinion Goldie Hawn had a lucky escape. Alright with women...mmm im doubting that. Tjmo.
You gonna try get Richard Cantarella on jeff? Would be worth listening getting interviewed by someone with your knowledge, only seen him once that was on that crank Gunners show and it was terrible.
wanted 10k... NOT INTERESTED in paying
@@thesitdownwithjeffnadu
Lol Shellack Head. Yeah fuck that....
Ormento didn't even like him because apparently they got into it in 1958 and Big John punched him in the face. Enjoyed this episode Jeff 👌
already did him
Good vid...sub'd
Welcome!
Love your videos as always do you plan to cover the Guadalajara cartel one day?
will probably cover Kiki Camerena hit
@@thesitdownwithjeffnadu thanks brother
im guessing mirra caught his first body before he got to handle big loads of H, the higher ups were killers hitters respect other hitters.
Mirra was a real creep. Joe Pistone described this animal as a guy they all hated. A real mafia monster, or should I say monstrosity! Good riddance and good video. Jeff really knows his mob! I like this because he shows real arvihal footage and no stupid re-enactments with bad actors. Nice job, Jeff. I am going to watch all your vids. I'm a girl who loves her mob stuff.
A mobstrosity?
Good ep.
You ever need a favor, just tap my shoulder. Portnoy's fertilizer, quick and easy.
I went to middle school down the block from those buildings
Hello Jeff I no you are going to have a really great video
thanks for watching
I agree with you Jeff on him being a CI.He got back out way too quick.
R.I.P Tony. A true gentleman who lived life to the fullest. Loyal friend and loving son. No doubt you have one of the best suites in heaven. Sleep well.
Interesting. Did you know him? By all accounts he’s not talked well about
Lol 😂
Just wanted to know how this guy would know anything about mob people, he's just talking about what he's read from books and has got know first hand experience
My mother is from Knickerbocker village.
thanks for watching
Love your shit!
At any rate... "well we had a problem. he is gone, that's it"
More heat
gratzi
I heard this pay phone story before, dude was a big scumbag…… Mirra got what was coming at him, often times the worst dudes are the informants.
I'm going to get the papers, get the papers....
I'm miserable every day but if you got some gabagool I'll be ok for awhile god bless
I wanna know who was keeping track of the dates guy's were being made? That seems shady to me, lol.
Cartels also forgot for.a second 😊😊
Sup Jeff
yo
The mere thought of Goldie Hawn going down
on this miserable bastardo makes me sick!
Goes to show ya . They are real people and just actors . I’m sure she regrets the tie in to this fella . Your last never goes away . Never
Woops PAST .!!
Galante was another monster! Both he and Mirra were sadistic sociopaths.
He did a great crab linguine
👍 5.7 litre styles
So all the information you get is just from the internet or what?
What's happening Jeff
I'm wondering if he was a distant relative. 🤔
I've watched all, I mean ALL of these wise guys podcasts and videos, this particular gentleman articulates and explains details very well, delivery of your plot and point is very important for people to enjoy this type of information and this guy does it well, me being born and raised in Ozone Park queens, he knows who I am and your stories are interesting
Two guys for sure you don't want to get together were Tony Mira and Tommy DeSimone. Granted, they were in different circles/families, but imagine those two at their most ornary hanging out together getting drunk at a bar.
Tony Mirra didn't drink
Mirra doted on his dear old mother by all accounts always spent time with her,popped in to see her everyday and drive her to the shops ect when he werent in prison of course.
🔥💯
Idk shit about NY nor its history, i thought Manhattan was the more thriving richer borough
There is still a very active social club in knickerbocker. Some of lefty’s family is still there.
Awesome podcast as always, Interesting theory about Mirra being a RAT 🐀🤔
Glad you enjoyed it!
