Michael: *breathes* Bobby: MMM MMM MMM MMM

As a Brit I didn’t even notice his “mmm, yeah yeah yeah” until I read the comments, that’s what it’s like talking to older generation English people😂😂

14:16 "no no we don't go down that route." was so funny bruh like the fact that the reporter actually thought

It’s so funny hearing them back track and be like “WAIT! ALLEGEDLY!” Like maaaaan we all know you did it 😂

The fact that Mike is older than Bobby is mindblowing

There’s just something about hearing two gangsters say “I’ve heard so many great things about you” that’s wild.

these 2 gentlemen are having a better, more well reasoned, polite and calm sounding conversation than most of the politicians out there😂

When he’s said “having an affair with my sister… You can’t survive that 🤷🏻‍♂️” 😂

If anyone is wondering, bobby said 'mmmmmm' 168 times and 'hmmmmm' 95 times. Edit: Thanks for all the likes. Alot of you are asking how many times he said yeh? Its 38 times

"I'm not a gangster, I have never been a gangster. I'm a businessman whose business was crime." - Bobby Cummines

24:00 that part about the kids hit me the hardest. grown older men with a lived life admit that this is the most important thing for them. eating ice cream, seeing them running around. it's a treasure.

When Michael found out he was a couple months older than Bobby and playfully said respect your elders now that must've made Bobby feel young again

I really like how extremely respectful they are to eachother

Bobby whenever Michael is talking 'mmmmmm' 'hmmmmm' shit was jarring me 😂

Man....I'd pay to be in a room listening to these men chat it up. This was so fascinating!

the amount of respect in this meeting is mind blowing ! i do not in any way say that the crime is okay but some things that the "underworld" teaches you is pure gold.

btw people, the hmm bobby does, in the uk its a sign of listening and understanding in some counties respect

Men like this always makes me think about the saying " beware of an old men in a business where men die young"

Actually one of the most interesting videos I’ve seen on this app

You can almost feel the energy in that room. Like two apex predators sharing a shade tree and a breeze before going back to their own lives and families. The stories these two men can tell.

I like how Michael invited himself to the guys wedding at the end. What an absolute boss 😂

Bobby hmming is making my brain hurt 😂

For anybody interested as to why Bobby ‘mm’s a lot, it is often done by older British gentlemen as a sign of focus and attention to what the other is saying. My grandpa used to do the exact same thing when talking about a serious matter. It shows Bobby is completely engaged with Michael and his story.

"On the outside I was an honest man - straight as an arrow. I had to come to prison to be a crook." Andy Dufresne, The Shawshank Redemption

Here for Bobbys 'hmmm' count 😅

Well, everybody that turned it off because of Bobby's "mmm" habit seriously missed out on a fantastic talk. I could listen to these gentlemen converse for hours!

I grew up having a family of British folks living with me. They lived with us for 12 years so I've known them my whole life, and unknowingly I picked up the gent's habit of "silently affirmation" as a listener to the speaker, the small mmhmms, and hmms. Bobby doing that in the video brought back so much nostalgia.

everybody talkin about Bobby going “mmm” why is nobody talking about the fact that Michael is 72, i thought bro was like mid 50’s

Everytime bobby says "mmm" you take a drink 😂

When Michael talked about his friend having an affair with his sister: "you don't survive that", that's the first time he ever have details about himself being involved in a killing. This was a fantastic video all in all, so my thanks to whomever it was that thought to put these two in a room together.

what a fascinating and interesting conversation. so unreal to be able to watch these two men speak about their experiences, and the level of respect they have for each other is admirable.

The mad respect between these two is amazing.

Bobby: “mmh” - 2024

It's like when Michael is talking, Bobby is playing ping pong in his head, left is "mmm" and right is "yea yea" 🏓

I love the respect guys like this have with each other, like they both did the same wrong things, but the high status remains - this time, as men with amazing stories and tales to tell.

The utter respect for one another really makes this video.

I don’t think Michael could understand 85% of what Bobby was saying

No matter what both of them did in their lives: this is one of the most gentleman thing I've seen in my life. their aura is just phenomenal.

he looks so much younger ! was shocked theyre both same age ! enjoyed watching this ,thankyou for sharing Ladbible

This was such a fantastic conversation amongst 2 gentleman, so much respect amongst the two of them 😊 what a life

"I love wedding cakes" 😂😂😂😂😂 Bobby is a charismatic GOAT

"Respect your elders now" goddamn Mike

This is excellent. Please make a series, will absolutley watch.

i always enjoy these twos videos, they're so engaging i love how they tell their stories

There is a tremendous amout of respect and presence with these two gentlemen looking in each others eyes.

The fact that Bobby literally says right at the start “I’ve never been a gangster” and they put it in the title anyway 🙄

Excelent amount of respect, presence and taste felt from here. Was quite pleasing to watch.

Never thought we would reach the point of watching this. Thank you for being open 👏

What a fantastic sit down. I've been waiting for this for ages. 2 old school gangsters from both sides of the pond who lived by the old code of honour and respect, none of that thuggery Can't wait to see Michael on his UK tour next month.

Uncle Junior moved to London

Having these 2 talk made me realize there was a time in the crime era when it was more civilized than todays time

Fascinating conversation. Cheers lads!

What a fantastic sit down. Mafia/Underworld. Both men have such interesting stories. Bring on seeing Michael on tour next month!

2 veterans of life from different parts of the world talking shop is always a pleasure to watch

Loved it. Now put the Yakuza and Triad bosses in a room. I also want to see the Italian Mafia and London Underworld in a room too.

Amazing interview and very raw honesty. Incredible insights.

We need a re release with just the parts of Bobby reacting to Michael talking

Watched numerous videos of these guys telling their story. Excellent listening individual. Michael never had a clue the whole conversation what Bobby was saying.. Mike’s life story eclipses any uk version. Unbelievable insight inside the real life and times of the original mafia. Never tire of listening.

Thanks for the definitions and bios of the people mentioned. Really helped

The fact they can be around each other as men and not gangsters is nuts. I bet this would be different 30 years ago. Crazy when you think about it. IMO

God bless LadBible for bringing in these kinds of people together. I had heard of Franzese independently because it's pretty famous on his own, then heard of Cummines from this channel, and having them both together in the same room is just a treat.

The amount of respect both of them gave each other is just wonderful❤

This is amazing!

I absolutely love that you both are the same age. Thank you for the experience.

Love this episode by the way. Getting people together from both sides of the pond is the way forward, really interesting.

Congrats 🎉🎉🎉 Michael on this conversation with Bobby Cummings continued success on the series of sit downs with talking with interesting people ..

Loved the last part about how they walked away from it, respect

Love this channel! What a fascinating interview.. (apart from Bobby's excessive "hmmm"s which did me 'ead in! 😂🤦🏻‍♀️) Unbelievable Michael's 72.. same age as Bobby! He looks great.. I saw him on Piers Morgan too the other day.. very charismatic guy.. 👍

Amazing conversation!!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

I need a Part 2.

I was waiting for them to finally do a video together.

Michael and Junior Soprano finally having a sit down

Thanks for showing me who Bobby Cummines is. I just found his book, it'll arrive in a couple of days, I can't wait to read it 😁

Brilliant, thank you.❤🎉

Mike: "THE GABAGOOL" Bobby: "MMM MMM MMM YEAH YEAH MMM"

I’m glad there are subtitles!

This is great. More of this. Subscribed

1 hell of a sit down

Bobby was such a successful crime lord because of his ABSOLUTE MASTERY of active listening.

This is so damn interesting. Loved the interview!

I respect these two. They lived a life of crime, but they made it out. This is fantastic.

I really like micheals attentiveness to micheal, in Japanese culture it’s very common for people to recognise when another person is talking by constantly affirming that your listening through mannerisms like this, I think it’s really beautiful

There are levels to this profession and one of these guys levels is extremely higher than the other

Honestly, love the quote "Prison is the university of crim," because it is absolutely right, with the way many prison treat prisoners (even ones with realise dates), you really wonder how people can say prison teaches people a lesson and puts them on the right path as it really doesn't. It makes their life health inside prison and out, many go right back into illegal activities even scaling up compared to what they previously did. Being in prison does not help people and never will be when society has been and as it is right now (if it doesn't change) it will continue to be the main problem. People's families, their local environment, their educational environment, it's what shapes people into who they become and who they associate it with. So, if you've never been to prison, never came close or never thought about it, really thank the people and environment you grey up around and in, as they helped shape you onto a good path from the beginning as at the end of the day people make choices themselves, but you can't always blame people for making bad choices if you never consider how they felt and what choices they felt they had.

Bobby keep reminding me of Uncle Junior from the Sopranos

I love the fact that right out of the gate, Bobby made it clear that he is not gangster and gangsters are a different breed of criminals from criminal organisations

I want to be like those men, not their life but the attitude. Man, I’m always amazed by that kind of attitude.

6 minutes in & I'm bowing out, that murmuring from Bobby is enough to send you round the bend.

Michael at 72 looks like he is 42... jeesh. That's crazy! 😂

A movie about either of these guys would be insane!

I love that when Michael is talking about cities the Mafia controlled, he also lists Florida. Tickled me.

Bobby was awarded an OBE from the Queen for his charity "Unlock" where he helped turn some of the the worst of the worst in UK crime back to being straight members of society. Yeah he had a wild past, but the man's a walking saint in my eyes.

Always wanted to see these two together.

I could sit around old guys who've lived, really lived, and just listen to them tell stories all day and night.

Interesting convo

Drinking game: Take a sip every time you hear Bobby with his “mmmm”

Insane. So interesting. Unbelievable video.

Something that I always say that made me feel it needed to be said in the regrets section is "Life is the journey of failing to live up to the person you wanted to be" While we all fail ourselves, I beg anyone reading this to question why you made the choice you are thinking of, remind yourself on why you should never make that choice again, and try to move on. Good luck in life readers

As a Brit. The ‘mmm’ ‘yeah’ and ‘hmm’ are just are way of acknowledging and just saying ‘I hear you and I understand’ 😂😂
