    Great show guys and thank you for what you do.
    Vinny, sorry for your loss of your daughter. My daughter also was born with medical issues. My wife and I have a lot of duties to do as parents with many sleepless nights. People just don’t understand what we go through with special needs children. No matter how much we needed to do, We Love Our Princesses!. Vinny, may God, give you that great deep peace in your heart and keep up the good work that you are doing.

    Good show. Vincent would be a good guest to invite more often. I especially appreciated the humanity that was expressed in this episode. One would expect that Vincent would say that the tough part of leaving the life, was scraping for cash or missing the glamour, but instead he mentioned the loss of his oldest daughter. That was a poignant moment. We all laugh, we all cry, and we all experience loss and grief. And he described it in a way that we all can identify with. Bravo

      He must have shot the shit out of some of your jackoff buddys or your just a keyboard gangster in real life? You must live a shelterd life if your think a guys profinity for violence, a short temper and lack of fear or empathy has anything too do with how some cornball looks. And my experience tells me a scared cornball is the guy who shoots you just when had to give him a slap or talk bad too him. A scared guy is unpredictable.

    something I noticed in this interview; it seems like Felix was antsy halfway through Vinnies story, which I thought was interesting. I would love to see that beating re-enacted in a movie scene, where the enforcer beats the shit out of some smug, coke snorting, model fucking upstart yuppie, smirking at actual NY wiseguys. what the hell was wrong with them? didn't they know who they were fucking with? I remember the phones were bigger back then too.

    John, since a lot of Albanians moved to southern Italy hundreds of years ago - the Abereshe - would they have qualified for becoming "made" members if they actually came from Italy? Or, would they have to have married into Italian families to qualify? Historically, there have been strong ties between Albania and Italy. I did not realize the extent of the Albanian mafia worldwide. They work together with Ndrangheta, Sacra Corona Unita etc. Seems odd you could not become a made member. "Roberto Saviano, the Italian writer, an expert on the Napolitan Camorra in particular and the Italian mafia in general, spoke of the Albanian mafia as a "no longer foreign mafia" to Italy and stressed that the Albanians and Italians have a "brotherly" relationship between each other."

      @@mrmcboomboom Is there a division between Albanians along religious lines? The majority being Muslim I assume the ones who have closer relations to the Italians are Christian. Is that correct? Things are at least harmonious there - globalriskinsights.com/2018/05/interfaith-co-existence-albania-remains-strong-face-new-challenges/ "There is considerable evidence that not only are the Albanians working with the ‘Ndrangheta, but that they have formed the tightest of alliances.

Not a knock, just an observation. thanks for your honesty. the story is between the lines.
