Tony was right the first time - Richie was baiting him by asking about Janice. He wanted to gauge Tony's reaction. That was Richie's character. He was always pushing, testing, searching for any sign of weakness.

[@kincaidwolf5184]

Tony is only the boss because his father died young and he got lucky enough to take over his crew and become a captain. Jackie was the boss and his friend, however, Jackie only became a Capo because Ritchie went to prison. So Tony and Jackie both got their positions through nepotism and family connections. Jackie and later Tony only became boss because many of the senior management were either useless, dead or did not want the job. So yeah the older generation naturally had an issue. Imagine Tony went to prison for 15 years, then came out and had to take shit of the Boss Benny.

It's just a word they throw around to make people do what they want.

[@beefeater000]

What’s crazy is that when he went on the Talking Sopranos podcast, Dave Proval said that the easiest way to tap into Richie’s character was thinking about all the anger he had towards the film industry for overlooking him for years. In a way he felt that he deserved the role no matter what… “What’s mine is not yours to give me.”

Jackie Sr and Carmine Sr are level headed and patient enough to listen and come up with a problem.
