THIS GUYS STORY DEFINITELY NEEDS TO BE A MOVIE 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
the satanic holywood cult would never allow it,
It is watch American made
Definitely
@@easlgaming6734 that's not his story and it's not even all that realistic for Barry Seal either... Our old house overlooked the Mena airport, it was built by Barry Seals aircraft mechanic and after Barry was killed he couldn't afford the house anymore so I know a little bit there.
How has it not been already
I cried at the end of that sit down. Very powerful. Brings hope to life. Epic episode.
i had tears in my eyes at the end as well
I think this has got to be one of the best interviews I have seen so far this guy seems so humble and such a nice person and has lived through some amazing things that should be definitely made into a movie.
I agree definitely one of the better interviews I’ve seen so far. after hearing this man’s story just lets me know how this system truly is very broken, to give such a harsh punishment when the system and the ones running it are much more corrupt.
This is your finest sit down. Thank you Michael.
This is an awesome sit down. Fascinating story and life.👍🏻
just started watch it and seen about all Rogers interviews and read his book. Lets see if this gonna beat Shawn Ryans interview on him, that was golden. David interviewing him was total letdown
One of the most amazing stories I ever heard. I am a 61 year old veteran grew up in NY and served overseas and met 1,000s of people in my life time but this amazing thanks Mike
Mr Reeves interview WOW. Can’t wipe the smile off my face. EXCELLENT.
Holy crap you got Roger Reeves on here ??? Talk about a cool dude and a awesome story teller than man has lived one hell of a life... I've watched all his interviews
Loved this. Thank you, Mr. Franzese for having the gift of listening. Giving this gentleman room to share his testimony. Amazing 🙏🙏🙏
That man is a warrior. Roger Reeves is one of a kind
Yeah he is he's a calm guy but I bet he's tougher than a pine knot
This was my favorite interview you've done yet! Thanks for having him share his story
Thank you Michael once again for a fantastic sit down. Roger Reeves has an incredible life story. Grazie, Ciao !
Wow Michael. What an amazing interview. Thank You.
One of your best interviews yet!! Great job Mike!!!
This is a truly brilliant sit down. I had to stop what I was doing to sit down and watch.... Not just listen. This is one of your best interviews. This man is a gem.
Great interview and I really think they should make a movie out of this man's story
You listen to these two, and they both seem like old friends. Thank you both.
I could sit and listen to Roger read the dictionary. So glad you sat down with him.
Yes his voice is so calming and relaxing
Roger does longer interviews telling the entire story. Completely insane life!
Yes it is his voice is so calming to
I have listened to Roger’s story a few times. I can listen to him over and over again.
My mom kept the family together. My dad took out over a dozen people and did 5 years in prison. I loved him but he was unstable. Let's say he didn't take well to communist or bankers. They messed with him and he got mad. Not a pretty picture. My mom was our pilar. Just a wholesome person. Loyal and loving.
Loved this interview. Just ordered his audiobook.
Michael, I have reached out several times to see if you knew my dad back in the early 70's. His name was Murray Silverstein and he was the President of the Sheet Metal workers union in NY and NJ. I know he worked with Carmine's people and sadly, he died of a heart attack in 76. I know about connections ( i would hear names like Allie boy, Junior, etc) and Carmine even attended my sisters wedding (she still has the card). I just wanted to know if you knew him or ever met him. Thanks and love your channel !
Come on Michael answer him brother.
Psychopaths don't care
I don't understand why you need anything else
The dude is one
Lol they think he reads all the comments🤣🤣🤣
So cringe grown men looking up to or speaking like one these corny gang bangers r something a d need to b shown extra respect lol uhhhh no
Hopefully he reaches out to you.
This was amazing Mr. Franzese! Ive been struggling the past few years with depression and anxiety, despite being raised by a loving Christian mom and dad, and I needed to hear this. What a reminder that God is forgiving and amazing but He's also pretty cool. Love you and your shows. I know God is going to bless you abundantly. Please say a prayer for me if you get a minute.❤
Great interview, Michael ! I felt it that the man is sincere. And really for 81 years old man, he looks great and very sharp.
Michael Franzese. I just got back home after spending three nights in jail, eight days in a mental facility and seven months in a drug rehab. I had been on Xanax for 37 years, it was prescribed.
I’m clean now and filled with the Holy Ghost. Praise God. 🙌🏼
Congratulations! Its a long road worthy of traveling!
😂😂😂
Congradulations, i'm an opioid addict and used to be addicted to benzos, but those I could just kick cold turkey, right now starting to feel the withdrawal and I decided that I've had enough, I'm calling rehab on monday, wish me luck!
@jyripeltola6677 suboxone saved my life.. not sure how you feel about medication associated but to me withdrawal was like straight up torture.. I couldn't do I'd rather be hit by a car lol. But subs helped me get away from M30s. Good luck!! I'm rooting for you
Amen my brother !

Wow! What a testimonial! Thanks for this Mr Franzese!
Beautiful. One of the best episodes I’ve seen to date. Thank you
"I was on my gazebo, on the roof, making some repairs, and I was struck by lightning...and I've had migraine headaches and blurred vision ever since then but praise the Lord that was my lucky day because ever since then, I've had the healing power. Amen, God bless you. Thank you very much.

This guys story is next level! He worked wit Barry seal who was working wit the cia n Pablo wild
So they never made a movie on this guy's life??
@@user-bl6ne3hc6n they made a movie on Barry seal , the guy he employed who ended up flipping ( he worked for cia ) n the cartel caught him n killed him. This guy may have lately been in the movie
@xavierjames8085 ya I know that I thought it was good movie, but this guy totally different story, there's a movie here,
@@user-bl6ne3hc6n oh trust me I def agree wit you! I tell ppl all the time truth is stranger than fiction

Best interview yet ,,,,,,,real deal
Tremendous interview, Michael. Thanks for all you bring to this channel. Great inspiration!
I’ve seen this 1000 times and I have the book but I’m still watching
Me too....I even emailed him.....he's one of the coolest guys ever!
Fascinating story, fascinating man!!! Thank you 💛 both for this beautiful interview. I think it's one of your best yet!
I second this. So very beautiful 😍 🥹
Great sit down Michael!!
That was one of the best and inspirational interviews yet Michael!
Micheal is a gentleman
Interviewing this guy's wife would probably be even more interesting than Roger's amazing story.
He went on lex Friedman and his wife is in the last part of it.
I loooooove Roger's story!!!! Soooo excited for this!! TGIF what a treat!
Great interview, standing applause 👏🏽 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Jeez when he said when he came home after 19 years his wife kept everything in the house exactly as it was….i got choked up just hearing that’s. That love story is much more powerful then the great fictional ones in the movies
This was an hour?? Wow this is some of the best true crime TH-cam content I've ever had the pleasure of consuming I think
Michael , this was an important piece of work you did here in my opinion. I loved it , thank you Sir.
Wow- just amazing. Michael so far the interviews I have seen on your channel have not disappointed me at all. Thank you so much for this. Btw a movie should be made about this man's life.
Not listened yet , but when I see Michael has a new podcast up it usually means I'm gonna have an easy time at work this morning (I listen whilst working through the earbuds)
One of the best out there no doubt.
🙏
Another very Excellent interview! Thank You! ✌️❤️🇨🇦
And that's what it should be all about....redemption, inspirational and meaningful. Thankyou Michael and as always - you're better than the others in the mob genre will ever be. God bless. Paulie from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺
Roger has amazing story and has the arts of telling it well
Mike, Great show today. One of the best. Thank you.
I love Roger. He is such a great storyteller and a national treasure. He reminds me of Sean Connery and he lived a life that rivals James Bond.
Man this guy... He fought hard to stay alive.. Very strong mind. I come from Holland, great story.
Very good interview 🔥🔥
What an awesome testimony! I love his positive outlook!
What a story........god bless us all😊
Great show/interview-wonderful testimonies.
God bless Always Michael
How lucky we are to hear Roger talk of his incredible history. I was so captivated listening to him talk...My guess is, his book, is one the reader hopes never ends! He and his lovely wife are blessed. I hope to see him (them) here again. His message struck a chord.
God Bless 🙏❤️
(I'm saving this so I can rewatch whenever I need this positive message)
❤ without a doubt, this interview is in your top three. TY!
Roger, while telling the ,in church part when the verse was read to you,then the man asked you to please stand,I got emotional 😢😢😢😢
Listening to this before work.
Amazing story, and when his wife showed her face….the goose bumps that ran all over my body and then the tears that ran from my eyes was an incredible experience, and I am well aware of what spirit this was ….and it was HOLY.
Great interview, Mike.I respect you tremendously.Your values moral And the way you carry yourself there needs to be more people like you
I'm surprised Michael didn't mention Roger's book Smuggler. Everyody needs to read it!
He mentions it at 2:20
One of the best interviews you've had. Enjoyed it!
WOW! what an amazing story!! More power and blessing to you sir Michael Franzese!!
Love your shows! So interesting! Thank you and proud of you
Great Show As Usual Michael..KUDOS 🤝🏴
I am 7:24 minutes into this interview and I can see the sparkle in his eyes. A natural smile , an easy going nature and someone that seems likable
Roger's book is absolutely amazing. I bought the audio book, and it's 20+ hrs of pure adventure. I laughed, and a few times, I was on the verge of tears. The most wonderful part is that it is read by Roger himself. Story's of a pilot, train engineer, bootlegger, and Man of God are still told here in south G.a. Godspeed Roger Reaves.
That Juan Sebastian Morroquin interview is gonna be very interesting. Pablo Escobars son has done a few before that ive watched hes a very honest and kind man. Escobar was 1 of the most evil people to exist but he raised his son right to be 1 of the most kind hearted man. Look forward to seeing it!
not even close to be one of the most evil
@@dareal5401 That's why i said 1 of the worst
Roger is great. Been watching for a while. - from Australia
I felt the humbleness in you Mr Franzese. Because I felt the same as soon as she sat down into the frame. 🙏❤️💯
Dope story! A living legend
Yes he is
As a spanish speaker but with a very fluent english,this gentleman has an incredible english with a really good diction ..
Mr. Reeves is a very special man who's seen crazy adventures but lots of time in various prisons for a good portion of his life.
He has an incredible woman whom has stuck by him for decades and raised a family. Marrie, you're something special. I love to hear William "Roger" Reeves tell his story and _yes_ his book should be a movie.
I came across this man when he was interviewed by PBD and then by Shawn Ryan, if I remember correctly. Great job by both of these men with this interview!!
Great show Michael! Very interesting!
I love your interview s they give such a honest real look into this other side of life that does fascinate most people awesome thank u
What an fascinating story. It’s a story of survival faith, hope, love most of all trust in a higher power!!!
This might be your best interview, Mike.
Netflix needs to do something. I like his interviews. #Netflix
A truly wonderful story u have
The Dennis Hopper version called Double Crossed was based on Barry Seal and was much better than the Tom Cruisr movie imo. Came out in the early 90s I think.
What a story!!!! Thanks Michael!!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
This is a great story, and would make a brilliant movie... Lets hope they make a film of it.🤞🏻
Make a movie! What a testimony
Over the top Story. Praise God for Roger and his beautiful wife.
