About

Welcome! For those who don't know me, I'm Michael. I was a former capo for the Colombo crime family back in the 1980s & best known for being one of the top money earners for the mob since Al Capone. Fortunately, I've been able to walk away from that life and reinvent myself (unlike many of my associates during that time). And for the past 25 years, I’ve traveled around the world speaking at corporate leadership events, churches & prison ministries, and to pro sports teams. I’ve also launched multiple successful businesses and have helped close deals that have brought in millions of dollars. On this channel, I share my experience, advice, and point of view on various topics.

Video Description

🍷🍷 Have you tried my wine yet? Visit https://franzesewine.com/ 💪🏼Want to join my family? Be a part of my circle? Visit https://michaelfranzese.com/family/ For the first time ever, I sit down with the man who built the case against me—Rudy Giuliani. Back in the day, he was the prosecutor who used RICO laws to take down the Mafia, and I was one of his biggest targets. Now, after all these years, we come face to face to talk about how it all went down. We get into the real story behind the mob takedown, what it was like on opposite sides, and how crime has evolved since then. Rudy shares insight into the cases you never heard about, the power players running things today, and whether the same tactics used against the Mafia could take down modern criminal enterprises. It’s a conversation I never thought I’d have—don’t miss this one.
