In this bonus episode of Gangland Wire, I follow up on my interview with Mafia historian Anthony DeStefano to discuss New York City's organized crime more. One of the most significant topics Anthony and I covered was the Alto Nights social club. This was not only the title, but also the central character in the recent Mafia film written by Goodfellas scribe Nicholas Pileggi, who starred Robert De Niro in dual roles. Gary sets the record straight on two pivotal New York crime hangouts—the Ravenite Social Club and the Alto Knights Social Club—which the media frequently confuse. The Ravenite at 247 Mulberry, tied to Carlo Gambino, played a crucial role in his rise to power after Albert Anastasia's assassination. Meanwhile, the Alto Knights Social Club, at 86 Kenmarre, emerged from the old Cafe Royale, a well-known bookmaking hub, solidifying its place in Genovese family history. Only three blocks separated these clubs, but they were miles apart in Mafia history. Listeners will hear about notorious gangsters who frequented the Alto Knights, including Vito Genovese, Michael Miranda, and infamous enforcer Buster Ardito. Through historical anecdotes and law enforcement surveillance records, this episode paints a vivid picture of mob life—its power struggles, criminal enterprises, and the relentless pursuit by federal authorities.

Good to be back here in Studio Gangland Wire. A little bonus episode here. Hopefully, you just listened to or watched my interview with Anthony DeStefano, who had these books about Frank Costello and Vito Genovese, and from which Nick Pileggi researched to write his screenplay for the most recent movie that's just released, Alto Nights, It's a pretty interesting movie. We haven't seen a movie about the mob in the 50s since the 50s or the 60s, I don't think. And they talk about the Alto Knight Social Club. That's what this was all about, the Alto Knight Social Club. It was a Genovese social club. But what I've noticed is there's a lot of discussion about where was this club? And there's a whole school of thought, thanks to the New York Times or another New York newspaper, were obviously conflating the Ravenite Social Club and the Alto Knights Social Club. Two different clubs. So let's look at the Ravenite, which was at 247 Mulberry Street. And what the papers are saying, that the Alto Knights name was changed by Carlo Gambino when he inherited it from Albert Anastasia after he was killed. Barbershop Quartet, if you remember, murdered him in the Barbershare most famous mob photos ever, I think. Bosley Gambino changed it to the Raven Knights, Raven Knights, like, you know. [1:26] Knights with a sword and the raven, because he loved the Edgar Allan Poe poem so much, the one called the Raven, you know, the Raven, quote, the Raven nevermore. Now, it seems kind of weird that Gambino must have been a pretty erudite, sophisticated mob boss. If you read Edgar Allan Poe and poems, you know, I remember it because it's just so immensely popular. It got to, you know, quote the Raven nevermore. It's such a great line that, you know, you've heard of it. I don't think I ever read the whole thing. It's certainly not for fun, maybe in school.

In this episode of Gangland Wire, I sit down with award-winning journalist and Mafia historian Anthony DeStefano to discuss New York City's organized crime. We discuss his meticulous research on New York's most infamous mobsters and how his background in newspaper journalism has shaped his storytelling. One of the most significant topics we cover is Alto Nights, the highly anticipated Mafia film written by Goodfellas scribe Nicholas Pileggi and starring Robert De Niro in dual roles. Anthony shares how his books Top Hoodlum, which focuses on Frank Costello, and The Deadly Don: Vito Genovese Mafia Boss played a crucial role in Pileggi's research. He also gives us an inside look at the film's development, including how real-life mob history is translated to the big screen. We explore the legendary rivalry between Frank Costello and Vito Genovese, diving into their power struggles, assassination attempts, and Costello's efforts to legitimize himself while staying deeply tied to organized crime. Anthony reveals new details from unseen FBI interviews, shedding light on Costello's complex underworld dealings. We also discuss Costello's mentorship under Lucky Luciano, the infamous Manhattan meeting that escalated tensions with Genovese, and how Vincent “Chin” Gigante played an unexpected role in Costello's fate. Beyond the mobsters, we also examine the women behind the Mafia men, discussing how the personalities of Costello's and Genovese's wives influenced their rise and fall. Anthony breaks down the casting choices for Alto Nights and the creative liberties taken to heighten the drama. Finally, we reflect on why the public remains fascinated with Mafia history, from books to films to documentaries. If you love true crime, mob history, and behind-the-scenes Hollywood insights, this is an episode you won't want to miss. Click the link on Anthony DeStefano's name here to see his mob books.

There's several of you guys in New York that kind of cut your teeth on the mob news, and there's a lot of news there. And speaking of Nick Pileggi, you got involved with this movie that he's written a screenplay for called Alto Knights. It's creating quite a stir among mob fans right now. They're really anxiously waiting for this movie to come out with Robert De Niro playing two parts of [1:13] all things. I don't know how that works, but we'll see when the movie comes out. So how did you get involved with this? I'm sure you know Nick Pileggi and known him for quite a while.

It may be a surprise to some folks, but the Easter Bunny has nothing to do with the true meaning of Easter. Neither do Easter baskets, bonnets, spring flowers or any of the plethora of secular imagery that have taken center stage during the Lent and Easter season, pushing the Resurrection of Jesus, the cornerstone of Christianity, to the side or dismissed entirely. But best-selling author Anthony DeStefano is fighting back. He's embraced the Easter Bunny for a children's book about Jesus, His life, crucifixion and resurrection. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, DeStefano talks about his new book, "The Story of the First Easter Bunny", and about the culture wars all parents of faith are battling in trying to teach their children the true foundations of their beliefs. DeStefano is the author of more than 25 books for children and adults; some of which delve into the headier issues of Christianity like heaven and hell. Learn more about your ad choices.

Bestselling author Anthony DeStefano sits down with me to reveal the heartwarming narrative of "The Story of the First Easter Bunny." Our conversation delves into the delicate balance of incorporating secular symbols like the Easter Bunny into the Christian celebration of Easter. It's an episode that promises to offer parents and grandparents alike a new way to share profound religious truths through the charm of children's literature.Why I wrote "The Story of the First Easter Bunny" by Anthony DeStefano"At a time when the profound significance of Easter is often overshadowed by commercialism, I wanted to write a book that imparts the true meaning of this most holy of Christian holidays to children. I came up with The Story of the First Easter Bunny— a tale of a pint-size bunny with enormous ears who lives during Biblical times. The bunny lives with his sick mother, and when he hears about Jesus, he goes on a selfless search to listen to His words. After he witnesses the Last Supper, the Crucifixion, and the Resurrection, he and his mother experience a life-changing miracle, and the bunny goes on to spread the message of salvation to all who will listen. I wrote this book— illustrated by NY Times bestselling artist Richard Cowdrey— as a way to “adopt” the Easter Bunny as a symbol of hope in the Risen Lord, of the transformative power of faith, and of the reality of Heaven. I'm hoping that it will offer readers an inspiring alternative to our culture's obsession with chocolate treats, dyed eggs, and cartoon characters of little substance. Most importantly, I hope the bunny's example of faithful attentiveness to the Word of God serves as a reminder to readers — both young and young at heart — that God's love is ever present and that when we trust Him with the confidence of a child, we can find redemption, fulfillment, and lasting joy." Link for Purchase: https://sophiainstitute.com/product/the-story-of-the-first-easter-bunny/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SophiaInstitutePress/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/SophiaPress www.AnthonydeStefano.com Please send donations to support our work to:John Paul II Renewal Center902 S Randall RoadSTE C #296St. Charles, IL. 60174Don't forget to sign up for our Newsletter!!  JPll Renewal Center email listFor more information please go to our website: jp2renew.orgSupport the show

In today's episode Somer and Anthony discuss the ways God grows us in our seasons of life, the need for pause, prayer as our greatest weapon against the enemy, and how our dreams are glimpses of God's plan for us...  Notable moments the conversation:  "Preach the gospel at all times and if necessary, use words." - Saint Francis of Assisi "You can't give what you can't have” - Latin phrase  Anthony points out that your dreams and desires are not the same as God's plan for your life, but they are clues from God as to where He wants you to be and your purpose. God rarely gives us straight answers but glimpses of the road ahead, a divine GPS, so we can seek Him and draw nearer in unity with Him.  Somer notes we are often building our own kingdoms instead of focusing on building God's kingdom.  Thanks for coming to the Love Where You Are podcast!

Before His triumphant and celebratory entry into Jerusalem, Jesus told His disciples in Mark 11:2, Go into the village opposite you; and as soon as you have entered it, you will find a colt tied, on which no one has sat. Loose it and bring it. And if anyone says to you, Why are you doing this?' say, The Lord has need of it.'
