The talk on racism was great. That line in the Godfather always haunted me, but it's based on reality especially seeing the crack epidemic; and the implicit acceptance of devastating those communities from law enforcement down to the drug dealers and everybody in between, including the mob. The nickname story is great. There was a 10 year old kid, in my neighborhood, that got a haircut and it look like peach fuzz to one of our friends, so he called him Peach. He is a grown man now and people still call him Peach. And as I'm thinking about it, I still can't remember his real first name. I just call him Peach :)

Mr. Franzese the way you talk with such finesse and attention to detail and allow for easy conversation with your guest is very admirable! I must say you’re a real stand up guy!

[@lauraduffy9055]

Gripping! Time flies when I watch your sit-downs, Michael. They only get better with time!

[@NikoNeznanovich]

It's absolute honor and privilege for us to watch this..Thank you Mr Franzese..It just can't get better than this...Awsome.

What's amazing is that Chazz has more hair now at 69 years old than he did at 40 years old when he made The Bronx Tale! All joking aside, The Bronx Tale is one of the best mob movies (with heart) of all time!

This is as free-flowing interview as you will ever see. Beautiful.

Michael, I'm with you on the Fear vs Love debate. I can't remember the specific historical attribution, but it goes, like this: Two Roman generals were discussing military command. The first Roman General said, "If your soldier's fear you, they will fight for you." The second Roman General said, "If your soldiers love you...they will die for you!"

Chazz is amazing in all his films especially Bronx Tale, Analyze this and Usual Suspects among many others. That biker scene in Bronx Tale gave me goosebumps. Loving the channel Michael. Congratulations my friend.
