Love the gas station story. I was in Hallandale Florids and had a guy in the drive through start with me. No way to back it down so I gave him a quick beating then told him to get back in his car so we can get a burger. Lol. 5 minutes later surrounded by cops. The cop asked me for i.d. and looked at it, then asked me if I was from courthouse road on the late 70s. This was 1992. I said yeah. Confused how he knew that. He told me to hang on. So 15 minutes later another cops comes back and tells me that hes sorry I was inconvenienced and I was free to go. Now I'm totally confused. I asked. Who was the cop that knew i lived on Courthouse Rd. As a kid. He told me the cops name and it was a kid from my neighborhood on the island. Respect! Amazing!

Mr. Franzese has warned, "You never know someone or their friends". He told the story of his friend Jerry, who made fun of a friend of a made guy. Mike had to expend effort to straighten it out. I would have made Jerry buy that new car. "I kept you out of trouble. You owe me a little something. Next time, treat everyone with respect. Nobody gets into trouble for being polite and respectful".

Too bad many make wrong and bad decisions on how to proceed with their life.

Michael will be the first to attest to that.

Michael Franzese I am curious how you would handle the young athletes who you have already paid money to play poorly and not beat the spread, if the coach benches him because he is not playing well and thus has no input on the outcome of a game, or his team plays well enough to beat the spread even though he played bad? He did his part but the results were not what you bet on.

Thank you for your videos, your words always give me a positive outlook on life. And not be ashamed of my past.

Someone who picks on a woman deserves some grief. I'm not sure that putting them in the burn ward is necessary. Now if he smacked her? Well, sorry..... you don't raise hands to a woman for such trivialities. I'm reminded of a story from the God Father. Mike asks his Father how "How did you find a guy like Luca Brazi?". The Godfather explains that there are people out in the world who want to be hurt, to die. They go about saying "Kill me, kill me!". They pick fights over trivialities. The Godfather says, "I made Luca want me to kill him, I am the only one who could kill him. He is now content to be in my service." Mario Puzo was a very wise man. Me, I'd prefer a more placid life. I don't want to hurt people, I was once a weak man. I enjoyed hurting people. I want that evil banished from my life. If someone puts me back there I will be sad.

Oh yes. Its not the circumstances or the situation or anything like that. Its the MAN always the MAN that determines success or failure. What is within will eventually come out and shape a person's life. It not a coincidence that this guy was preparing to be a doctor before joining the mob. Its not an accident that a mob wife told agent Pistone that he had an air of intelligence about him. Mob life is mostly for people who are too dumb/violent/lazy for other things. That is also the reason why the mob slowly weakened after the 60s. It wasnt just law enforcement upping their game. The quality of the men coming in declined as higher quality italians were now less marginalized and could make serious money legitimately. Its not an accident that the most powerful criminal organizations in the USA now are all latinos. We are seeing a reapeat of history from a century ago. Only this time the new, poor kids on the block are from hispanic/portugeuse america.

Best comment on another video: "I could listen to this guy read the phone book". Mike has a real talent. His confidence in the way he talks and conveys his message is second to none. The type of guy that could do and achieve anything. Much respect.

Mike is the exact kind of guy that Christ would use to spread a message. Christ would use people that were known to be notorious, because the dramatic change in their lifestyle gives a strange, but powerful impression.

Jesus chose Saul, a mass murderer of Christians to be one of his main messengers. He chose Matthew, a corrupt tax collector. He chose regular fishermen to be his followers. One day, while Jesus was sitting with these people, the high priest and other religious leaders asked Jesus why he was surrounding himself with such filth. Jesus responded " people that are well do not need a doctor. I came to save the sick and lost, not those who think they are already good enough". In fact, Jesus loves men like Mike, because he has clearly made a change in his life and given the details of his former life, he has made a dramatic change.

@@desertweasel6965 Good. Very good. It's is PRECISELY because of Michael's approach of NOT forcing his faith down others' throats that will ultimately bring people to inquire him about his faith in Jesus Christ as the Messiah. My great-grandfather, the Reverend John Rider Sr, was a beloved minister all throughout his community, not to mention surrounding communities, yet my mother said she never, ever heard him say a peep about the Bible... Until you asked him first!😉 God bless Michael Franzese 💯

These vids are outstanding. Read a couple of your books & always was excited to see interviews/documentaries with you. Always insightful & interesting. Thankfully, you provide context & perspective that’s often missing from other accounts of ‘this life’. And kinda related, your interviews/docs/books/etc are also presented in a manner that avoids the hubris/bragging that sort of distracts from the stories of a lot of other mafia-related guys. Glad you’re doing these, hope you keep them coming

My son was saying just the other day do you watch michael franzese on you tube? He also looks up to you for being in the mob... But I also told him that you had courage to walk away from that former life. I think you were too smart n talented for the mob... You deserved a better life so you made it so.... Now that's something to look up to... I'm glad he saw my point of view and agreed...it's your charisma and attitude... Makes people feel safe.. It's in your voice also.. Very calming.. Love from the UK michael..
