    I went to my son’s graduation the past weekend and was standing in line for the washroom at Frank Pepe’s. I saw this guy in the kitchen taking pics with the staff. Then he got behind me in line. Its was Chazz. Such a pleasant aura. Had me smiling.

    As the son of Italian immigrants, this gives me another reason to be proud of our rich & beautiful heritage. Thank you Chazz. How this video only has 497 likes is beyond my comprehension.

    Thanks a lot for the amazing episode!! I wached yesterday for the first time Bronx Tale (in English of course) and I loved it! I loved every single character in the movie. It was great! Was fasinating to hear the whole back story about the birth of Bronx Tale movie from Chazz Palminteri!! How he started from a real childhood story to then convince the right person to let him play Sonny's character and to write the screenplay! Really inspiring!!! Thanks to Growing Up Italian podcast I'm learning a whale new things about Italian-American culture (I watched tones of episodes already) that as Italian I wasn't aware of. Thanks to this podcast I'm also slowly diging into the history of Italian emigration to America and it's really interesting but really really sad. A gray page of Italian history especialy for south Italy (where I'm from). Italian-American should really be proud of ther haritage and for what they did for that cuntry. I read that they were very disriminated (like many other races) and had to work really really hard to have very little back. Something terrble that my generation probably can't even imagine.
    I'm a fun of the podcast and I hope that one day I will come to New York to visit the main Italian spots! Keep it up guys!

      Chaz thinks murdering people was ok because it was 500 years ago? lol... The Portuguese were far superior when it came to navigation. Italians have plenty to be proud of without the farce of Columbus. His own men wrote about him (Columbus) negatively........There were still morals 500 years ago. Only reason Columbus got a pass is because the people slaughtered weren't European.
      edit: and columbus was so dumb he though he made it to India hhahahaa

    • @rraddena

      Like Chazz said, it's unrealistic and plain STUPID to judge those time with todays ideals. Besides, the fact that you're on this site saying what you're saying is testimony to Columbus and the great man that he was.

Chazz brought up that his Father was never late to work in his 30 yrs as I Bus driver ! The hilarious irony is that, as a young guy, Chazz had a job at a travel agency, right next to his Stoop , literally next door… an was always late 😭🤣🤣😭

    Vincenzo Bellini, (born November 3, 1801, Catania, Sicily [Italy]-died September 23, 1835, Puteaux, near Paris, France), Italian operatic composer with a gift for creating vocal melody at once pure in style and sensuous in expression. His influence is reflected not only in later operatic compositions, including the early works of Richard Wagner, but also in the instrumental music of Chopin and Liszt.

      I puritani is an opera in three acts by Vincenzo Bellini12. It is based on Walter Scott's novel Old Mortality, which depicts the conflict between the Puritans and the Royalists in 17th-century Britain2. The opera is renowned for its melodious and dramatic music32, which showcases Bellini's musical genius and refinement3. The opera premiered in 1835, shortly before Bellini's death at the age of 3 Bing search

    People must realize Italians are the original Latin people then came their cousins Spaniards, French, Portuguese, and Romanians. They def have some North African/Middle Eastern ancestry besides Italian.I want to see his ancestry dna results to see if he is 100%.I understand that back in the day colonization was the norm, but killing natives etc was/is not normal. Columbus and the Spanish did not discover America when natives were already here. Why hyperbolize events to make you look better? Columbus EXPLORED NOT DISCOVERED America...those are NOT synonymous terms. BTW, I am not an ideologue, I see things holistically from a non-prismatic point of view. Even during chattel slavery people like to forget that Africans willfully sold their own people into slavery with the Europeans. Our school system likes to spread paralogy as oppose to the truth.

It would be better if Italians. Had an Italian day. Or Italian heritage day. That has nothing to do with any one man. But all Italians. As a culture. I myself am Native Indigenous Mexican Born and raised in America. I love your show. One of my favorite podcasts. Makes me proud to be both Mexican AND indigenous-American.
