@Mugwort he would be an exceptionally good one though. Didn't just have the street smarts needed but was also a med student so he's nost likely brilliant in all ways possible lol that intelligence led him to leave that life however and also intelligently not cooperating with authorities
He's way too smart. The mafia today is for people who don't have other opportunities. He can make money elsewhere without the hassle. I mean he tried that life and it almost ruined him.

Michael first tried getting into the chicken buisness when a 3 legged chicken overtook him on the highway....he couldnt keep up but saw the chicken turning into a farm...Michael came across the farmer and asked had he seen the 3 legged chicken race by..The farmer said yes and confirmed that he bred them..Michael asked...what do they taste like..The farmer said I dont know....I've never been able to catch one...(old joke)
I have a question for Mr.Franzese. Many years ago I saw an interview on television by Joe Bonano. It was taped at his home in Mexico. He was asked about the assassination of JFK. Mr. Bonano detailed the relationship that Joe Kennedy Sr. had with the Italian mob and that promises were made by him if the mob would assist in the election of JFK. Unfortunately for Kennedy's sons, they were not aware of this connection. However, in this interview, Bonano detailed the execution of this assassination. He said that The New York families were not consulted and that Sam Giancana , with the help of the Florida and Louisiana bosses organized the plot. Furthermore he stated that 2 hitmen from France were brought in through Mexico and flown out through Canada. He stated that even though the Kennedy brothers were targeting them, they felt great shame for the murder of a President of the United States. A country that had given them so much. Shortly after this Sam Giancana was murdered in his basement. This was due to his approval of the assassination. I have never again seen this interview and have looked everywhere online for it. Could you verify what I have seen?
I'd heard him mention this story before, but not in this much detail. What a great example of the life. I love listening to Michael Franzese. He comes across as credible.
There are actors in the movie industry who role-play mob men like Michael Franzese. That's one thing. But this is the real deal, the real McCoy, the bonafide, genuine persona, that you see up there in the video. This is the man who walked and talked and lived the life that others can only act out (no disrespect to the actors). You see, there were no shouts of "cut" in the kind of world that Michael lived in. And I suspect there were no "take 2's" either. And I have to say, despite my inner voice which tells me not to compliment this man because of the things he had to do while being a made-man -- fuck my inner voice! I find Michael to be valiant and brave in more ways than I can count. Add to that description Michael exudes a special kind of intelligence and a different breed of class. I always enjoy listening -- and learning -- to what Michael has to say.
If you acted like the guy who sold you the bad chickens and refused to refund the lady, she’d tell all her friends, “don’t buy from Michael, his chickens have maggots!” Before you know it, you’d be out of business! Then you really wouldn’t be buying his chickens. He had a misfortune in getting bad chickens… That’s not your burden to bare. You were right to stand up for yourself.
His story reminds me of a story as related to me by my stepmother about her first husband the dad of 3 of 4 stepbrothers. He was a genius of a thief. He stole a tractor-trailer load of turkeys once and they were living (he and my stepmother) in a mill-village and the houses were divided apart by posed privacy fences and a neighbor came to the door saying to her one morning when she was just beginning breakfast for the kids. "I'm sorry to bother you this early but your turkeys are getting into my back yard and scratching up my garden for worms." She went to the back porch and looked out the window and it looked like it had snowed! The backyard was wall-to-wall turkeys! And it sounded like hail hitting the roof the racket they were making! Gobble! Gobble! Gobble! It was almost Thanksgiving and when I heard this story 15 years later I about died laughing!!!
I like Michael Franzese & recently bought that book 📖 he authored... Wish he was a personal friend & mentor. I’m acquainted in my area with a Nephew of the late, great Joseph Bonanno. ~ My brother-in-law’s Dad was 1 of the Doctors of the last Shah of Iran.
Imagine you have a night out with too much to drink. You wake up the next day with a splitting headache and the worst hangover you can imagine. Boss calls and says be ready in 30 minutes. We got a meeting with the Gambinos
I am sure in the Gotti original movie, Paul Castellano's character mentions something about a "chicken guy" he did business with? Sounds like something related to this title.
why didn't he make a deal to buy their chickens but it has to be good and if people complain about maggots or whatever, they'll have to repay him back.
Translation Technicality Means the best actor or bullshit artist wins ... Sounds like Paulie was a cince. Translation a petty Chicken peddler. The Wise man would say. You don't have to pay.. because he was obviously selling dated chicken. This brings us to another translation. "Miserable" in Italian it sounds better... At 27 years old you have to ask yourself Is he joking Mr. Half a billionaire wants his pennies for magets? It's a know fact Paulie was Not the most generous boss in the history of the COSA Nostra. THE RULES don't require you to be generous... That's why many guys go there way.
I like the respectable businessmen interviews so much better than these. Nothing good can come from the practices of murders and thiefs unless you want to be one.
Well it’s not just that it’s more about how he’s changed his life around and the lessons he learned in that life. He’s a man of god now and plus it makes for entertainment. Which is why we’re all on TH-cam for anyway. To be entertained.
They should've gave the Poultry Business to John Gotti. Like, i would literally die seeing how men like John Gotti gonna handle big ass Corporation like Monsanto, Tyson Foods & JBS USA screwing medium time, individual/family owned Poultry farm for generations.

Mafia blood
Mind of a man without the usual stresses most people are to weak to overcome.. anxiety, stress etc..
I can listen to this man tell stories all day.. Such entertainment
@greenmean1 fuck your whole family, nerd
Me too
Mike Kirkland the only nice one
I can listen to this guy for hours. Not only does he have the actual stories, but he has a very good delivery.
The Mafia arguing over chickens sounds comical , But I'm 100% certain it was seriously dangerous.
Because it was never about the chickens. Like anything else when it comes to the Mafia, it's about principle.
Yes, he could have ended up hanging on a meat hook in a refrigerated tuck like Frankie Carbone in Goodfellas
He's lucky they didn't choke his chicken
And some people probably lost kneecaps over it
He’s lying that he cussed Paul Castellano out.
Nothing like a hardcore mobster selling some quality chickens
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
that dude on the corner slangin chickens McDonald's wants the hookup but dats word on da streets reppin that mcmafia comin up on shitty chickens fo
It takes a tough man to make a tender chicken.

It’s his Rabbit Year personality shining 👌🏼
Plot twist: He is actually running it and no one knows.
Great story about the truth of negotiations. I am reminded of Sun Tzu: "know your enemy. Know yourself."

its generic

Fun fact: The nephew of Paul Castellano Michael is referring to is Richard Castellano, who also plays Peter Clemenza in the Godfather.
No he wasn't his nephew
NerolNiethsreg Yes he was, his only nephew in fact.

My All-Time favorite @Valuetainment guest.
These mobsters are like 3 year olds. It’s amazing how they manage that well in business.
They had/have real grownup guns.
@Kristie C it's far more difficult to run a business than to work for one
@Sick Boy They robbed hundreds of millions from the government you can't just say they're successful because they were dangerous
@Kristie C you sound like a bernie bro. or a union fuck
3 year olds keep they're cool
Why is it so funny to listen to the former mobster talk about....🐣 chickens 🤔🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣I mean you would expect something..Dark??
I work with tons of business owner and the day I work with a chicken business is the day I call it quits.
Its money in chicken already. They dont need u.
If you prefer quality in chicken I suggest you think smarter.
Why would you say that? You know how many billions of dollars are in the chicken business ?
Aye im not paying for these chickens. You listen and you listen good. Not only are you going to buy these chickens but you will love it...
Every video you post is full of education. Thank you so much!
Please upload the whole talk!

Imagine dying over a couple of pounds of chicken...scary.
i doubt that....that's why its like what michael said...everything in that life is a sit down, and it could be over anything
It wasn't about chickens. It was about the integrity of one man vs the integrity of another man.
Feared, Respected, and Well-Known Mafia Boss: "You know, today I'm gonna buy me some fuckin' chickens. Some nice, beautiful, beautiful chickens. "
Keep your cool when your in the same room with the boss that orders people to be killed !. Lmmfao!
Please post the full interview

Wasn't that a 60 minutes interview, with Mike Wallace? I think I saw a snippet of it on a Joe Bonanno documentary.

I heard the story before too. This time he glossed over the fact he had no idea who he was talking to on the phone.
Full interview please 🙏
This was some serious game...wow Learn to read the room
love this guy... and its so amazing what he did and in that life. and the people he knew..
Every successful person, have business failed in the past.
I've failed more than 3 youtube channel before start focusing all in this one
Yea but the difference is they start a different business they don't stay with the same failed one

ive never been so depressed in my entire life, being is not enough, im a human meing , and its tough.
At the end of the day Mike is still here telling all of these stories and Paul is six feet under
Great insight

Seems Castellano went one chicken too far at the end when he got whacked.

Michael for President
why didn't he make a deal to buy their chickens but it has to be good and if people complain about maggots or whatever, they'll have to repay him back.
The deal wasn't about chickens. He made a deal to accept the least degrading outcome he could while keeping his head on his neck.
