>danny masterson got 30 years for rape based on hearsay
From what I’ve gathered about the modern mafia post Giuliani inviting Russian mobsters in to New York, is being in the mafia is 50% paying for other peoples shit higher ranked in the mafia than you, and the other 50% jerking yourself off as a “made man” and feeling like you accomplished something with your life.
This moron got BTFO properly by that other rat for being a shithead who couldn't even stay solid in an organization of shitheads, but was running around demanding respect for being a piece of shit that failed at it.
lmao
the gay is finally getting owned >stop the baloney
so happy Sammy calls him out on that bullshit
he's clearly trying to maintain the italian gangster crap he tries to pull off
Gravano played a major role in prosecuting John Gotti, the crime family's boss, by agreeing to testify as a government witness
Yep, a true "words" mobster

He flipped because the feds had audio recordings of Gotti talking shit about him and if I'm not mistaken, was either talking about serving Sammy's head on a plate to the feds or killing him. I can't remember which. Either way, Sammy felt betrayed and decided to frick Gotti before Gotti could frick him

Exactly, Gotti was a c**t and was lowkey hated by the other families out there. No one cried when that frick got locked up. He was a fricking loudmouth and it's why you don't hear about OC anymore outside of 'remember' when talking about the Sopranos. They are big in fetanyl and gambling rn.

Also worth noting that they had enough evidence to put Gravano away for life. His two options were: 1) go to prison for life and protect that piece of shit Gotti who betrayed him. lose-lose situation. 2) cut a deal to get less prison time and frick over Gotti in the process. win-win situation

He always add how it would happen in real life tho. Or atleast in his early videos. Didnt watched him in like last year because its always the same shit...
Michael is the biggest MobTube fraud out there, he only gets by because he's a cogent and well put together and enunciates properly. Nothing about his story can be corroborated, it's not clear he was ever a captain of a crew, or even if he was actually made at all. He might've been a big earner for the Colombo leadership at the time, but he for sure was not a "boss" of anything.

To be fair he and jon both betrayed their boss when they murdered him. Neil Dellacroce, underboss, told me not to do it and wanted no part in it and died of natural causes a few weeks before the hit.
If they didn't kill Paul Castellano he would've killed them, and had wanted to kill John Gotti for years. That hit was purely for survival which is why they ended up getting a pass. But turning rat because you heard your boss say rude things about you on a hot mic? For fricking real?

From what Sam said about his time in prison, it was John who told him flat out that the family needs the boss on the street and he was going to take the wrap for all the charges being laid.

Exactly, no one is around who mattered who would care at this point. Most members hated Gotti and were glad he was gone, that whole era of airing family business out in popular culture was bad for day to day operations.
He betrayed the boss of the family. He was the underboss. A capo is below both of those positions. He betrayed Gotti to stay out of prison for the rest of his life and he’s a rat piece of shit, but Gotti didn’t go on the radio and say mean things about him, Gotti got caught on wiretaps planning to whack him.
The boss can still be referred to as a capo, it is not just a position but also a term of respect for whomever is above you. So the boss is the "captain of captains" or "captain of the family" the capofamiglia

boss of all bosses is the most powerful boss in the entire mafia, not the boss of one family. But yeah, YOU'RE the one who knows what he's talking about, sure
His time in prison did enlighten me on the fricking hell that is solidary confinement and how it's the most inhuman fricking shit on the planet and should be banned punishable by death for any prison to do that.
Well...you are right.
These people should be executed behind the courthouse after conviction, not babbied in a concrete cell crying that they can't talk to their prostitute wives, or moronic kids.
You could read mob Wikipedia all day it’s nothing but a bunch of greaseballs coming up with ways to murder their “friends” imagine going into your roofing or IT job and conspiring to murder the guy in networking because he might be banging the bosses wife
i never really got this guy. he talks about all the bad people he associated with etc, was a made man who obviously was involved in a murder but markets himself as a good christian while making money telling stories about the sins he did.
>buy your way out >be allowed to talk about old shit that isn't relevant anymore >told to push the narrative that the "mafia is dead" so people stop paying attention to their current activities >privately he's a fricking joke and no connected guys take him seriously and he's treated like the moronic kid you tell to dance on command
Michael's YouTube is so fricking boring, it's basically the same 3-4 lame stories on repeat with no variation. At least Sammy had some TRULY kino episodes, like the John Keys story, and the Frank Fiala - Would You Kill Paul story. Sammy mistake was being greedy and blowing his load too soon, his show is on fumes now as well
Kinda, he really can't talk about a lot of the stuff he was involved with because unlike Sammy, he didn't eat out the organization and get a blanket immunity deal from. those days. Very repetitive and he did end up losing all that money, I'm sure he had a bit hidden away but pales in comparison.
He was a legit mob guy and comes with all the baggage attached, in spite of the good he has done since doing his time. Sammy is entertaining to watch at times but he's a bitter old man who can't make a good decision.

My problem with him is when he pretends only his generation of mafia were actually noble and loyal while everyone else was scum. And then he snitches anyway
I haven't watched it in a while, but isn't that literally Tony Soprano's viewpoint?
Gary Cooper, the strong silent type. And him talking about how the "good old days" are gone and he's "coming in at the end."
If it is, David Chase nailed it.
But the difference is I love my dad and will gladly listen to his dumb stories about when he was cool because I know one day I won't be able to hear them anymore.
Just nod your head and ask the same questions/make the same comments you made last time.
As I said before, there will come a day when you won't hear them again and you'll (probably, assuming you have a decent relationship with him) miss hearing them. Plus, every dad enjoys telling his kids stories.
People become forgetful with age. Every old person tells the same stories over and over again, because that's all they have. They're not going out having adventures anymore. It will happen to you and hopefully people will pretend to care instead of cutting you off
He's trying to tell you he was just like you in the past, and see some connection. He no longer has the ability to just live like that anymore, and has been weighed down by responsibilities. By sharing these things and repeating them he hopes the things that make him happiest can be mirrored in your life and that you'll go looking for them, or the mistakes he regrets the most but isn't too embarrassed to tell another soul can be avoided.
What a boring homosexual >I scammed some gasstations and went to jail for it
who the frick cares. He was supposedly a mob boss but the most interesting thing he has to say is how he took advantage of bad bureaucracy and some bullshit about trails no one gives a shit about
>I used to scam people for money
>BTW pay me money so I can go to your podcast and agree with you
Now I scam people with my church!
I'm pretty sure no sane member of any organized crime group would go public that way. Only in America, I guess.
He doesn't talk about anything interesting from those days, only his boring gas tax scam
he cant really talk about involvement in murder
imagine an oj simpson podcast, talk about a snoozefest
>only his boring gas tax scam
Thats the only thing FBI got on him you moron. What do you think he will talk about? Confess to murders?
he never killed anyone
he only tries to make it seem like he did to sound badass
>he never killed anyone
He didn't even come up with the tax scam itself, either.
He's a born again christian, its part of his redemption arc.
Isn’t he catholic ?
i don't think he is, which is surprising because he is italian and even talked about how mobsters would go to mass. it just seems like he is an evangelical or non-denominational
What about popeye (pablo escobar's hitman)
he was a massive attention prostitute

It’s honestly pretty amazing that Sammy is still alive after all these years given he went back to prison after ratting.

He was one of New Yorks top Mafioso. He made a fortune fiddling gas taxes.
>Character is italian wiseguy but looks spanish or latino
Whatever happened there?
MY FAWTHA
His fatha wouldn't talk to him because he agrees that he's a rat.
He one of those megachurch freaks, he's just a grifter, never changed.
He's got millions tucked away offshore from his tax scams. He was never a gangster, he was more of a racketeer.
Gangsters are better than merchants, merchants are lowest of the low.
They are literally just bad merchants. They suck so hard they have to lean on more than the government at peddling their shitty services.

Reminder this guy’s dad got paroled at age 100 and still lived to be 103 years old
His dad was a rat...he was a rat...nothing but mob rats all the way down chewing on each others wiring.
Now...him and his rat pappy being KGB assets who should've died in prison is the real story.
