'Our Thing' Podcast Season 1 Episode 8: My Crew | Sammy "The Bull" Gravano

[@MarkSiosal]

I think the Johnny "Keys" Simone story is the greatest story ever told, told in the best way a man could ever tell it. I had goosebumps for the whole thing. It's like I was in the back of that van with Sammy. The man is just a brilliant storyteller.

Hearing Sammy the bull speak you could tell why he rose so high in the ranks of the Italian American mafia…he’s super sharp at 75. Imagine how sharp he was at 30-40

[@JG1rn]

My father knew Johnny Keys very well. My father was Angelo Bruno's godson, and both my father and grandfather were soldiers in the Bruno family. My father was VERY old school mafioso, very tight lipped, hated the flashy mafia members like JG. I remember him saying "today they all want to be celebrities". That was back in 1996. He died in 2019 at the age of 86. Hated talking on phones. Used to drive me crazy when I was in the car with him, "Always watch your mirror". He had me making lefts and rights whenever he thought we were being tailed. Always paid for everything. Everything was on him when he went out with his family. Didn't have any friends, just his family. Didn't trust anyone outside his circle. He was the last of the Mohicans and I miss him every day.

@@dianewarburton5828 I never said I felt like him!! So read the comment correctly!! By the way you don’t know anything about me, so how would you know I ain’t a gangster??

Wow, just wow. I have been addicted to this channel for about a week. I watched dozens and dozens of videos but the story of Johnny keys hit so different. I'm a completely straight laced person, save for a few embellishments here or there my tax returns. I'm not affiliated with anyone who's affiliated with anything criminal. I have to say however, this story of Johnny keys and how Sammy developed such respect and adoration for what this man believed in and how he conducted himself knowing that he was going to die, so moving and so touching, so poignant that I cried. Wow. It's the principle of a man standing for and living his conviction, even when he is the loser of the day. Life is fragile, conviction while you residing in it is everything.

I just sit quietly…..listening. It’s deeply riveting…..a life I couldn’t imagine. Storytelling? Bravo Mr Gravano.

[@paulanthonyyepez2915]

I'm binge-watching Sammy podcast and I've got to say that season 1 episodes 7 and 8 are two of the best episodes yet. There is nothing better on KZbin Netflix HBO showtime Cinemax or any other network on TV. KZbin struck gold when they started working with Sammy the Bull Gravano. He tells a story like no one else. I can not stop watching his videos and podcast.

I worked for Simone's relative who was in the life and retired to Hawaii and opened a Pizzaria there (Oahu) great guy. Absolutely nutz. Married a woman named Mary who was 20 years younger than him. He hated Hawaii and moved to Florida to be closer to family and died of a heart attack soon after.

This story gave me goosebumps. Rip Johnny keys

This is the BEST thing thats been on tv in YEARS!!!!!!! OMG I CANT WAIT TILL THE NEXT EPISODE

[@noneofyourbusiness150]

It is interesting to me. This is not a life anyone should live, but the real feelings that Sammy has for his associates and the real feelings they for him are special. That closeness is hard to find, difficult to get to experience for most of us.

[@lisashrestha5023]

Like soldiers they are bands of brothers

[@cameronjones8641]

@@lisashrestha5023 Both the poster and yourself need to rethink your statements. I have studied mafia history for years and love these stories as much as anyone but don't allow yourselves to get caught up in the emotion of this production. It's rediculous to consider these utterly corrupted and treacherous people as loyal bands of brothers. As much as they have some moralistic values, they live by a distorted and twisted set of rules based on the exploitation of others. They are fascinating people no doubt but nobody should be glorifying them. Sammy comparatively seems to have been a mafia member with a higher moralistic value, he is definitely a master story teller and incredibly interesting but let's not pretend he comes from a beautiful background.

[@cameronjones8641]

If you think the closeness of people so treacherous that they cannot trust barely anyone around them is hard to find I would consider your life choices!

[@noneofyourbusiness150]

@@cameronjones8641 you are not wrong. But Sammy does feel close to many of the people in his former life. It is the closeness soldiers feel to each other in a fox hole. Yes, the mob life is full of treacherous behavior, if ordered to they will kill their best friend, but also their best friends know what they signed up for. Their are no drafties in the mob, they all volunteered.

[@noneofyourbusiness150]

I am not suggesting to anyone it's the sort life they should lead, most people life the life that they fit into. I never would have fit into a mob life.

If anyone has read the Godfather, they talk about how Don Corleone formed his crew, Clemenza, Tessio, Al Neri, Luca Brasi etc...their background, where they came from, some of the past work theyve done. Its awesome, and this is a real life version of that. Amazing stories

You Feel The Emotion You Know In Your Heart The Emotion Sammy Goes Through Everytime He Tells His Stories And It Makes It So Real. I Definitely Believe The Stories The Way Sammy Tells Them You Just Know You Can't Fake All That Emotion. Other People That Talk About Being A Badass And Telling There War Stories You Decide What To Believe Out Of What They Say. When You Listen To Sammy You Can Just Tell He's Reliving It Like Its Happening As Hes Telling It. The Music Also Adds To The Aesthetic Of The Whole Podcast. It's just The Best Podcast I've Heard In A LONG Time. Keep Up The Great Work Sammy. Your Story Is Amazing. ❤
