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.

🍷 4th of July Special with Blackberry wine: https://franzesewine.com/ 💪🏼 Join Franzese Family: https://michaelfranzese.com/family/ 🔥 Become my partner: https://invest.franzesewine.com/ He wasn’t just in the Aryan Brotherhood — he was one of the men calling the shots. Rex Holloway was a high-ranking shot-caller inside the Aryan Brotherhood of Texas — a world of brutal politics, strict codes, and survival by any means. In this raw, no-holds-barred sitdown, Rex takes us inside the gang’s hidden structure, how power really works behind bars, and what separates the ones who make it… from the ones who don’t. This isn’t just another prison story. It’s about control, fear, loyalty, and the price of respect inside the most feared prison gang in America.
