Mark’s Podcast is low key one of the top 5 podcasts that have been blowing up because of the quality of the podcast the amazing guests and finally Mark himself makes it perfect (edit) thank you it feels cool & good to see and know you actually read, like every comment!
I really like the way he guides his guests' conversation. It's not overbearing in any way at all, but he's able to find the nuggets of interesting information for the viewer

I really like BigHead’s style and vibe. You can tell why he was successful at being a gangster. He’s smart and personable, funny, but you know he means business
Best podcast on the internet mark is my favorite person on flagrant and this podcast is just a super amazing addition to his character online. I love his hot takes on flagrant and this podcast gives a much more in depth view of just how much depth mark has as a person it's very interesting to hear the convos he has with people on here. I love to listen to each interview you make not matter my interest in the topic because you have a way of making each quest tell an interesting perspective to whatever it is they are on for. Cant wait to see what else you do
Got this on my feed. I watched the whole video. Great stories from Jimmy’s experience. Good video if you are into these experiences. This should be made into a movie or live action documentary.
Bro blasted on the scene with dope ass guests. Been following these mob/gang content for a while. Magically just appears on this channel. Not a coincidence man. Your doing a great job brotha Kudos, love and respect 🫡
You are getting better guests.Not that the other ones were bad, but people love mafia action.For some reason, it's just the way we are.I know that's how I am. Keep on keeping on you are doing great.God bless you❤❤
I hope mark keeps this poscast going and stays true to himself, there will be ups and downs but as long as he keeps it real it will do great, i used to like flagerant but lately shultz is just too much and too cringe for me. Keep em coming Mark! Great ep!
Haha for sure. I love his understated style too. If you didn’t “know” what you’re looking at, you would think this is just some regular dude, he doesn’t stand out in any way
Amazing podcast. i love Jimmy, such amazing stories of the olden days in NY and HK. Ancient memories and similar to the stories my parents have told me as a kid
This shit is addictive as hell!!! I was supposed to just watch 10 mins of it and then go to sleep. It is now 1:30 am and i still have more than 2hrs to go 😅
Awesome interview… I stopped watching flagrant a year or so ago… mark seems more authentic and is way more naturally funny than Schulz. I guess I’ll have to watch some past episodes!
I recently found Gagnon and really been liking the podcast even though I wrote the whole Flagrant cast off after bending the knee and doing that debate review and flat out bullshit us to our faces. Since i been watching warrior about the chinese mob I couldnt pass on this one! 😂😂
Interestingly enough, the chinese god father of chinatown at this time was Uncle 7(Benny Ong) - he actually did make offers that people couldnt refuse. lol. RIP to the OGs.
@@docmain999 lol. Its junior sopranos line from the sopranos lol! The 2nd reply, dude referenced one of juniors other zingers! "Chinese godfather made em an offer they couldn't understand" lolol

At this point, 'wow' and 'crazy' aren't just words, they're a lifestyle choice. If I took a shot every time you said them, I'd be in a different dimension by now!
First of all check out Ren. Im not wasting your time brother. Second of all I'm from the future and this episode is awsome. Im going to rewatch it. Five stars.
My guess is nobody called him Bighead to his face back in the day. 'Cause I remember Michael Moy saying that the guys probably had a nickname for him too, but he told them not to use it around him.
@1:08:03 you asked if chinese gangs went at it with other gangs and maybe not in chinatown manhattan but in brooklyn sunset park flying dragons and latin kings went at it a couple of times

Never heard of this podcast before. But now I have and a new follower!!

Love this guy. This one is way better than djvlad interview.
Camp Gagoon is getting better guests than Rogan in recent months.
Rogan’s scary, he didn’t even wanna interview Michael Franseze cuz he was a former mob guy. And michael’s a super calm guy.

I love hearing Jimmys stories, NYC Chinese gangs were wild, such a unique time period
I wish they spoke more about Triads working with others like mafia or black gangs
They were wild cause most of them on the streets were minors. Young and stupd.

Really great interview! Bighead covered lots of ground and really broke it down in and outside of prison! Bighead is 1 cool dude!
Love your channel man, great way to pass time at work and learning.
This was a great interview. Big head's story is 🔥
I really like BigHead’s style and vibe. You can tell why he was successful at being a gangster. He’s smart and personable, funny, but you know he means business
This is such a great interview. Long form coco but with questions that are so thought out, yet are on the fly. Amazing.
“Tell me a funny story. “
“I got shot.”
One of the best episodes of a podcast ive watched. Great insight from a legit OG of New york chinatown
Just checked channel for an episode - let’s go!
You’re the best Camp 🤙👌👍..keep it going bro ✌
Best interview I’ve listened to in a while so fascinating and a lot of commonalities in immigration/struggle stories in different communities 🔥

The rush hour edit is crazy
😂😂0:23
Camp don’t miss with the stereotyping baby!!!
This podcast and Mark is so chill.. I can listen to this all day
F***ing love his stories. Love that he's the real deal.. not someone who went to private school rapping about "the life"
Every week this pod moves up the list. You're killing it mark!
Great interview...very interesting about the inside triad experience. Thank you for sharing!!!
You are getting better guests.Not that the other ones were bad, but people love mafia action.For some reason, it's just the way we are.I know that's how I am. Keep on keeping on you are doing great.God bless you❤❤
I’m the same way with mafia stuff.
Great Guest, this story is wild…..
Camp story of the ages lol
5 minutes in and I'm hooked already.

This guy still has SOO much cash. Got on a rainbow daytona here, he was wearing an RM on The Connect. Quick mil in 2 videos on his wrist.
Haha for sure. I love his understated style too. If you didn’t “know” what you’re looking at, you would think this is just some regular dude, he doesn’t stand out in any way
He always has a crazy watch on!
They could be gifts.
Made me a subscriber
Really good interview letting him talk
Great story
Mark: do you have any funny stories?
Mob boss: I got shot at but they missed
Bro😭😭
Bring this guy back. Bighead is the goat.. gotta document more
Love listening to og big head great stories
This dude did it all in NY’s heyday
Amazing podcast. i love Jimmy, such amazing stories of the olden days in NY and HK. Ancient memories and similar to the stories my parents have told me as a kid
Anyone else notice he sounds like Asian Arnold? Lol. Love this guest. What a crazy life and I'm glad he lived through it to tell us his story
I like this dude. You can tell he's not lying.
A fantastic interview!
He isnt lying. Shadow n his codefendent beat a whole mess hall full of inmates n COs in C74. This hqppen in 92 or 91. IYKYK
Awesome episode!
Used to hear endless stories of these gangs growing up in chinatown
Love you mark!!! Shout out from Florida!
I watched this whole interview, very great guest and story.
You're great! Keep grinding and don't focus on how many viewers you have. Focus on the content, if its good. People will show up and stay.
Gagnon: Tell me a funny story
Guest: A funny story... Oh one time I got shot 😂😂😂 WTF?!
I could listen to Jimmy talk about his exploits with “Quiff” all day!
best episode ever
I have some insight detail inform into Jimmy's story. Good to see you doing well after all these years Jimmy.
Great guest, great interview
Great story, subscribed 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
🤝Pretty cool chanel love the way Jimi explains his life watching biographys all the time👍

Mark… how dare you keep having these great guests.
The Golden Star Bar machine gun incident was Dec. 1982 around 2am.
Bro said sometime two pieces… nah he’s like that 😂

Guests blinks: 😣
Host: wowwww
bighead getting so famous now......
New subscriber! Great episode 🔥
“The Canal Boys” were a ruthless set of Vietnamese immigrants in downtown manhattan. They were BTK but they ran Canal st.
lighting the cigarette with the pistol lighter was awesome wtf lol
This show is lit!!! 🔥
How many wows? Usually great questions, must ate to many edibles lol… wow!!!
It’s annoying
Did you hear about the Chinese Godfather? He made him an offer he couldn't understand (c) Junior Soprano
So da ch1naman goes to da doc, doc says "sorry looks like you got a cataract" ch1naman says "no i dont! I drive a rincoln!"....
Mans was so excited to post that he misspelled shit and had to edit😂😂😂😂😂😂what a doughnut 😂😂😂😂

this one’s gonna be a little tough to listen to from work 😂😂
Not gonna lie I've had to rewind like 4/5 times now.. great so far though
God damn Mark for a second I thought the whole pod was gonna be in intro form😂
Rogan only interviews his comedian buddies to give them more followers. He needs to put on more interesting people like Camp Gagnon is doing
Rogans' like Sandler, there is nothing wrong with helping your friends.

vietnamse or loas , we are brothers
we need united to become bigger against racial slurs
“Fuck you I’m still here!” 😂😂😂
Wow, I’ve seen so many of his podcast/interviews but I had no idea Bobby Lee was such a badass!
This guy really asked "do ua think i could be a gangster?" Lol wow.
I have never met a mob boss that has openly told anybody that famous line of *call the cops*
during that time he was no longer in a gang he left the life
