As a man whom went to prison for over a decade it refreshing to see your podcast showcase gentleman like this who was able to turn his life around and show the world that we are more than our mistakes. Those of us that have been through the jungle and make it out have a lot of good share with the world. Great show, amazing podcast. Thank you.
Black America been saying that since Great Society Act established welfare in exchange for no man in the household. ThTs why they don’t know who da baby daddy is, cause baby a paycheck.
Literally the most corrupt yet most powerful organized crime syndicate the world has ever known. I’ve been saying this since Trump exposed the general public to “the man behind the curtain” AKA the corrupt establishment ruling everything.
Because that's what this lifetime member of the Mafia wants you, weak people, to believe...The majority of politicians mean well...ALL made guys in the Mafia are guilty for LIFE...That membership is for life, till death, and he knows it...
I’m trying to catch up on all the podcasts but this guy…wow, he’s right on about everything! We older folks can see clearly what is going on in this country! Love Michael!
@@TheRestInPeace a good percentage of mafia members were in the military before the life. So yea, they're patriots who like to screw the government but help the regular people
Freudian slip. 😉 Lol. I always had my suspicions Michael was still out there earning with “the guys,” but I know whatever Michael’s out there doing nowadays, it’s nowhere near as bad as the government.
Final stages of Empire - anything goes in totality out. If Roman protomodel was so sucessful, why even consider using something that Will eventually end in failure.
PBD I think we need more men like you and Michael going out there spreading the word on what it means to be men! Less men like Adam running the bar scene looking for girls who have kids at home leaving players in their wake! That’s how many crazy messages there are! Show the fatherless who u r! Bringing ur boys with u so kids can ask them about this message…. I think it would be so helpful!
An old Italian saying is: “be afraid of an old man in an industry where people die young”. For this man to have been one of the most successful mobsters in America and still be alive and not having to hide shows how smart he is. Happy to have people like PBD that give them a platform
Well he was a very bright young man. Could have become a great businessman or even a child specialist doctor which what he originally wanted to do before his dad went into prison.
@@bonifaceonyekaba8849 actually Michael made alot more than a million a month..he was making a few million every week until he reached a sum of 190 million..he owned a liter jet along with his helicopter and a multi-million dollar estate
Did anybody notice that Michael disagreed with Adam twice. In fact Adam wanted to bash Trump when Michael interrupted and told him how he felt about Biden..then Adam lightened up about Trump. When it came to Trump and gun control Adam was saying the kinds of things a Democrat would say..and Patrick didnt seem worried about the shape the country was in. He felt that it was something temporary and would blow over soon. Michael took it far more seriously and said our country is in trouble and I agree. Michael's views were more realistic than both Patrick's and Adam's...he was smarter than both of them.
A corrupt Christian is more like it. he puts on a good front for viewers but in the background defrauds funds from people's credit card like he did to me. In one video he said he doesn't need people's money but he needed mine for 2 months and fraudulently at that. He won't return it when I asked since I did NOT buy his product like his registration claims. Please be wary of his behaviour is what I say. Read my comments up above about what he's done to me and see for yourself.
I wasn’t a Trump fan because he didn’t seem presidential, what ever that means. But when I saw the good things he did and not taking any crap, I began to have respect. I don’t think he needs to take advantage of the system like Biden, Obama, Pelosi, and other politicians alike.he got in the way of the good ole boy network. Ultra MAGA!
@@samuelthomson9765 Says who? The media? You have no idea what really happens behind closed doors.. Its all a big gang, and you're not in it. If they REALLY wanted him, the could get him, they dont...
@@ManagerMatt1 its fun to say. But the reality is that ole boy's been under investigation at every level for 7 years now, taking billion dollar hits to his net worth.
Since forever folks have wanted a real person, not a fake politician, to run things. After they finally got a real person all many wanted to do was bitch about his table manners.
So in America you aren’t an adult until 21? If you’re going to make 21 the cutoff age then make that for EVERYTHING, voting, insurance, guns, drinking, smoking, prison, credit cards, etc. There are people who live on their own in scary areas at 18-20 and need that level of security in their own dwelling.
Exactly! And not to mention the fact that 21+ year olds have committed more gun violence than 18 year olds, so increasing the age would be a moot point.
I’ve been following you guys for quite some time. I’ll be honest, I haven’t listened in a few months and thought it was time to listen again. Listening to this Podcast, you guys naturally get to the heart of a topic more frequently than not. Thank you for your product. -Miguel
"Why does an 18 year old need a gun?" An 18 year old can live on their own. As a result, they need the right to protect themselves and their domicile. Thats the only answer you need, end of story.
@@Jasonsteel334 yeah it definitely is different now, but that doesn't change what I said. You cant change the age of rights, unless you changed the age of adulthood.
@@nikwassiliew7017 the mental illness is exponentially more prevalent than ever, the culture has gone to shit, we stopped insitutionalizing a lot of criminals and psychos. I know it was rhetorical but that's a quick analysis
@Zafilio Right on the Money(100) for all those Young & out in the World at a Young Age they need something to Feel Safe not to Act like a Cowboy cause they have a Firearm just something to Ward of Poteional Hooligans if Push comes to shove.
Patrick is the most important voice in the U.S today. I've listened to every podcast and I tell everyone I know to listen to him. Love u buddy, keep it up.
LOVE IT when Michael comes on the podcast. My eyes and ears are glued cause i know i will learn something. Love how these men allowed one another to talk while the other one respectfully listened . Micahel, Pat and Adam are all great role models for us men.
NICS Backround check is mandatory. Patrick wasn't flagged in the system, that's why he got his gun so fast. It is frustrating when people pretend there isn't background checks.
Plus young folks out of frustration could take a car and run over people and they could do damage that way. Lets raise the age to get a drivers licience!!!!
@@rfe8nn2 But that is less likely. The weapon of choice is a gun. I'm all in favor of owning a gun but there is a serious problem with gun violence that needs to be addressed.
Also m16 is a select fire rife, fully auto and they are highly regulated, six months to a year wait with multiple background checks. He bought an ar 15, semi auto rifle.
If we have a gun violence problem, wouldn't the best thing to do is protect yourself with a gun? I don't see any of these politicians or celebrities giving up their armed protection but they want us to give up our arms? How about them first? My life is important too. I bet their kids go to school with armed security as well. Why can't our kids get the same protection?
@@bigvanvader3122 Hey I'm ok with extensive background checks including opening up Juevenial records. We have to find a rational path that says once you reach adulthood you will be treated no different than anyone else. At the same time recognized we have mental health problems in that age range and we need to be capable of flagging their Juevenile past as well. For the record, the only way I see 21 as constitutional is if we raise the age of adulthood altogether. Btw Biden was about one thing about rights it's not absolute. Children by tradition get those rights once they reach Adulthood!!!! That means before then you can't consent to sex, you can not drink a beer, vote, or buy any means of self-defense.
I'm 64 yrs old. When I was a kid I learned to shot a gun. My friends and I hunted some and always had a great time. Great memories!! None of us considered shooting anyone unless it was self defense. Our doors on our house were never locked. Crime didn't exist then. If it did it was very little concern to us. I knew of people who had shotguns in their back window of their pickup trucks. These were high school kids driving to school. No one got shot at any time that I can remember. So...what's REALLY wrong ?? By the way, I grew up in the city of Baltimore. Can ya believe it ??
Pat is right on this one.. we need more role models because even if we had a Dad in the house, he could have been a gambling drunk dead beat. We need PBD and Dr. Jordan Peterson to inspire.
Sorry Adam, kids brought rifles to school under 18 for decades after hunting… 14-18 year olds have been sacrificed at war since we’ve been a colony but they can’t buy a firearm? Hard sell for me sorry!
What a great conversation and no1 is speaking over each other and no massive ego’s getting in the way of pointing out problems at hand. Just started Mafia Democracy and its a great read.
Michael was a good guy trying to break bad in his younger years due to his father. If it wasn't for his father dude would have been a doctor. I do believe Michael is trying to be a better person and inspire others to do the same without an agenda. Sammy in the other hand should be doing life in prison. The sad part of all this is there are people out there thinking whatever Michael does is all for $$$. The man is truly an inspiration and I am glad he is sharing his story. His action and words speaks volume. Very rare feat nowadays.
Actually, according to Michael, if Sonny had not been framed for the crime he went to prison for, Michael would not have become Mafiosi. It was Sonny who wanted Michael to be a doctor. It is vitally important to remember that. Sonny did not want Michael in the life. Michael was trying to uncover who had framed Sonny, so dad believed it would be better for Michael to enter in the Mafia to find out who framed him, which means to me that Sonny seems to believe a fellow Mafia guy or guys were the one(s) responsible
"The right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed" there are far too many gun laws as it is. The main point of the second amendment is to protect from, and hopefully prevent in the first place a tyrannical government. That is it's main purpose and always has been, nothing is worth sacrificing that over. A tyrannical government will undoubtedly cause far more death than guns do now. Also the problem is culture, there was far less gun crime when there were no gun laws because culture was different. Gun laws will not fix that at all. Red flag laws are the worst, however they start, that will be a Trojan horse just like income tax was @3% and now look how far it has gone. There is no middle ground with gun control because we have already given too much ground up. Anyone that advocates for any kind of gun laws is enemy #1 including you Patrick. If you don't like the gun laws in free states, move back to California or New York. Don't move somewhere because it's better and make it more like where you came from that was worse. You aren't making it better, you are making it much, much worse. Go back or assimilate. Be humble and realize that you are dead wrong on this and get it right.
@@user-qh7rj9wj4p AR 15 would be much more effective. If you think a less well armed mass of ppl can't give a better armed army fits, go look at Afghanistan, Iraq, Vietnam, the AMERICAN REVOLUTION and many other examples. Pistols wouldn't be that effective though, which is why they're trying to take what would be. Without a well armed citizenry, this country would have never existed in the first place.
If you ever had a guy come to your mom n pop business and tell you that you have to pay them 20% every Month or you're gonna get beat you wouldn't think it's so cool
Thank you PBD you introduced me to Michael with your sit down in 2018 and ever since then I've been a huge fan of his he's just a really amazing and Fascinating person with a lot of Knowledge and insight
Im76 and totally agree with him I think this all started with mothers having to go out to work Kids knew mothers had eyes in the back of their heads they knew by the time you got home they knew if you were doing something you weren’t suppose to do. Sunday was family day if possible. Kids were in at a decent hour or when the street lights came on .We didn’t buy our 1st house unless it was a fix up Everyone came to help. Now kids mouth off at anybody .Both parents work so they don’t know where their kids are. Kids today live about their means.We need to get back to God and religion
Absolutely fabulous discussion guys, love seeing and hearing real men, we so need more of them! I agree with you all, especially the mafioso’s point of view! Blessings to you all
Adams grown on me. He is finally coming around. I use to think he was just unwilling to listen to anything and would support the left blindly, even when it was obviously wrong. He has opened up alot, but he actually seems to listen now. Doesn't mean he has to agree with everything but is open to discussing and having an open mind. This is what will fix our country, and will expose the fakes.
Adam began to bash Donald Trump when Michael interrupted him. Michael told him what he thought of Joe Biden. Then Adam lightened up on the Trump bashing. When it came to topics like mass shootings and Donald Trump..Adam said things that a Biden supporter would say. In fact Patrick and Adam felt that the trouble the country is in is something temporary, something that will run its course and blow over in time. They didnt take it as seriously as Michael did. Michael expressed worry and felt that our country is in trouble and I agree. I think Michael was more realistic in his views than Patrick and Adam were.
In my opinion if you’re going to raise the age to 21 then you have to change the age from voting from 18 to 21 as well. You can’t be old enough for one right and not the other.
The same is happening in Australia too mate. It's very very dangerous and scary. Society has become so fake they get offended by the truth. Love you guys.
“The hardest people to recruit are doers” is exactly why if you score too high on the police exam IQ test you are literally too smart to work for them. It’s all about do what you’re told and employing the people that will do it and not question it.
Anyone can be stubborn or too strong willed, and theres no correlation between IQ and the above. Its not that people who have too high of IQs dont take orders, it's that theyre a security risk.
Pat keeps saying in the military that we turn our rifles into the armory at night and that’s only partially true. Anytime you are in the field or deployed you sleep with your rifle right next to your head along within any serialized gear. I still wake up randomly and feel around for my rifle at night because every night I would wake up to ensure my rifle was accounted for.
Recently lost a friend this week to well an unintentional suicide and its the second in a year at a young age, condolences to you, patrick, and both of your families.
There is a story about a boy getting bullied at school, the father of the bullied boy takes the bully out for lunch or whatever and just spent the day with the kid and the father was able to talk him and school him on life and the two boys ended up becoming friendly so the media has to be talking more about things like this in this country but also need more men and women stepping up for these kids acting out
oh no we can't have those type of happy ,good outcome news..it doesn't make enough money like other hypothetical scenario where father takes other kid for lunch then shoots him after that in the bush somewhere we live in a weird fuked up world for a long time now
My friend who is a Veteran and a patriot. Was in DC in Jan on vacation. Happened to wonder up to the Capitol bldg because he saw all those Trump people just to see what was going on. Never went in the bldg. 3 weeks later FBI busted into his business and arrested him with about 20 felonies. You should have him in your show! Find out how they're really dealing with those people even the innocent ones who were not involved! They ruined his life in one fail swoop
ADAM! ADAM! After this never ever quote Trump is a liar, we are all liars but most of the Dems and now your current president are the greatest liars of all times at the detriment of their OWN nation. Michael, thanks so much for drilling some COMMON SENSE into Adam 💞
I was raised on guns and my children were as well !! That’s how you have to do it! My kids never have access to guns and I never did when I was a kid, on the same note, I’ve never went for a gun in anger neither have my kids!! It’s all about being raised right!! Just good old family values!! 👀🇺🇸💯💪
After researching the history of great assets such as real estate, dividend-paying stocks, gold, oil, and other commodities, Ive come to the conclusion that most excellent assets never come down to the price you want to acquire them at. Simply get the ones you can afford right now.
Respectfully, Michael: regarding raising the age of firearm ownership from 18 to 21, you defeated your own point in your next sentence. You said you, during your criminal years, could easily obtain an illegal firearm. Proving that if an 18 year old with criminal inclination/intent wants a firearm, they are very easily available. So how does raising the age reduce firearm related crime? All it does is restrict access to people that were not going to commit a crime with a firearm in the first place.
@@J-Mac8 agreed, but what is the point of a compromise when it accomplishes nothing other than coddling the delicate sensibilities of the opposition, and does actually infringe on rights that exist in reality? Especially when the opposition has no real ability to ultimately get what they want, like gun control?
I like bill burrs take. You 18, you want a gun, fine but the only thing you can get is a single shot weapon. You want to upgrade to a higher class of weapon, fine but you need to demonstrate your responsible. Not saying this will solve our problems but it's also a form of compromise
@@drfeelgordo Bill Burr is definitely one of my top five standup comics. I don't agree with that thought on a strictly constitutional level, but I do appreciate the reasoning, lol. He is not entirely wrong.
PBD - A delay on guns will be literally causing the woman who needs a gun because a stalker is following her home from work to be at risk of being murdered. She needs the gun within minutes not weeks. The kid in Texas planned this for 6 months, so a 3 week delay would not have stopped the crime.
@@immanuelkh The criminal will get a gun either way most likely illegally. The only thing you're doing here is taking the woman's ability to defender herself.
The whole concept of the 2nd amendment is about civilians protecting themselves from a tyrannical government. Giving the government any say in the matter whatsoever undermines the whole concept behind it. Strong and loving families with the right morals and principles is what our children and we as a society need.
Nice to see the change in people who have come from the darker side of the streets. I respect the content that is provided from former mobsters. But it would be nice to have some interviews on this big platform that covered other organized crime that doesn’t necessarily get the spotlight that mafia content does.
I have overcome obstacles in my life as well. I recently was a guest on the podcast “Milwaukee mafia” to Try to get my story out. And it’s tough because of all the negative feedback, everybody hates the light being shined on dark moments. However, if you want to create change, you have to start with truth. So I admire the courage that the guys who come and speak out to promote change.
Patrick I’d do anything to come on your show as a guest to tell my story. I’ve never been given a platform to tell it and frankly I’ve hidden from it but now that I’m a little older I’m ready to help others. Also I’m sorry about your bestfriend that overdosed and the other that committed suicide. I grew up in a very nice area, I had a core group of 9 friends, today I am 32 and only 5 are alive. - Steve died at 20 of an overdose on OxyContin in 2011(he was pre med) -Kyle died in 2020 during quarantine of an overdose very unexpectedly (his little brother died 6 months later in the same bed, in the same shirt, of the same thing fentanyl not clear if it was on purpose but felt that way) - Billy died of a suicide a year later while completely sober, he drank antifreeze This doesn’t even include the friends that died , this is just bestfriends that I grew up with 😢 crazy . I am 8.5 years sober and I’d love to share my story.
Great podcast. I’m from the UK and we don’t have the gun culture in the uk like you in the US. But knife crime is very bad. I agree both government seem to have different rules for the hierarchy and the workers. Especially covid where our politicians get a away with having full scale parties but people couldn’t go and bury their loved ones
