I won't be surprised if in the future will come out that the real boss was Joe Ligambi.

Yeah Hood we are from here so we know what’s what … he is broke and I don’t think Philly has much money coming in and Skinny doesn’t want to die in the joint . Even the top guys in the family don’t appear to be making much money. Skinny’s life style costs him about a half a million $ a year minimum and I don’t think that is happening now and he is getting desperate. So if this rat scam doesn’t work its back to the streets because I don’t think his wife is going to keep working while he sits on his ass and acts like he is loaded.

Yall think Joey Merlino got a piece of that multimillion-dollar caper that Sal Pellullo & Nicky Scarfo Jr pulled off? That's the kinda guys the Family needs.

That one with he pork chops had an amazing moment, Angelo Lutz, who I thought was a sort of master chef, shows how he prepares them, and his bean recipe is pouring a can of Cambell's Pork and Beans onto the pork chops! Merlino just sits there looking as if he is witnessing one of the world's great chefs in action. Lutz strikes me as just a happy go lucky care free type, the total opposite of Merlino.

So many people are angry with Merlino, but many would praise John Pennissi or Michael DiLeonardo. Merlino is real, he is not always likable, but I think he is truthful most of the time, way more than anyone doing podcasts.

I’m not on any side or anything I enjoy it all but I would say as someone who cannot ever talk about the mafia merlino is in a position where he probably has to say the least and therefore lie or withhold truth the most. Rats have already laid it all bare so have nothing left to hide (assuming there are things they did not hide)

The Penissi kid has no stories of his own, he just mentions stories that most people already know of...He's a joke...30 years ago he would have been Amuso's and Casso's coffee boy...

DiLeonardo isn't much different...Has to talk about Gravano every video because he has no stories of his own...I wouldn't put it past him, if John jr. throws him a few bucks to attack Gravano for him...That said, he's obvioulsy more sharper then Penissi

I think he does say the least, but I disagree on him lying since he backs it up with court transcripts and documents that were not allowed to be entered into trial. The rats do lie, I don't think that they lay it bare, I think they lie to justify what they did. Also the feds protecting them may tell them what to say. Merlino has no one telling him what to say. He may need a person to do that, since he is a bit obsessive to say the least.

I agree, Lutz seemed like a likable guy, especially after just accepting his so called friend constantly telling viewers how fat he is

You can tell a lot about a person by how they talk about people they once knew. Well, as far as rats go, John Pennisi certainly takes the cake when it comes to badmouthing people. Everyone is a piece of shit, except him. I honestly think there is something wrong with him mentally. Him and Dom Cicale should probably look into seeing a psychiatrist

If they were smart, they would have made Ligambi the official boss years ago. I am sure some older guys wanted to see that. He could be the boss right now. I certainly don't believe Joey is anymore

Yeah, guaranteed, the one's he's calling stupid or incompetent are the same guys who abused him in the life, and this is the only way to get back at them, besides testifying against them !!

I have a feeling that Joey's relationship with NY has been shaky for a while. Something is clearly going on. I don't know what exactly, but when Joey called Sonny Franzese a rat, he basically told NY to go fuck themselves

Yes that fucking scene is an all time great. I laugh my ass off every time I see it even now.


That would be fuckin hilarious if someone lit a pile of dog shit and got it recorded on you tube at Merlinos house. OMFG it would be fucking LEGENDARY!

Lol. Yeah I saw that and didn’t get why they hyped that recipe up so much. Angelo is actually a really good cook. Should have made his sausage meatballs on the show instead.
Definitely not a chef tho and he’d be the first person to tell you he ain’t.
