    Hey Wiretappers, listen to my short bonus episode. I'm looking for mob fans to read the first half of a memoir about my life, which is partly about being a cop and mostly about the Civella Spero War. Email me at ganglandwire@gmail.com and I'll send you a pdf to read. It's about 22,000 words. Once it's done, I'll send you a copy This week, we journey back to the early 1900s—a time when the first wave of Sicilian immigrants brought more than just dreams of opportunity to America. They also brought with them an age-old criminal code that would lay the foundation for the American Mafia as we know it. Our story begins with the Mustache Petes—those old-world mafiosi who preyed on their own immigrant communities through intimidation, extortion, and a cunning knack for organized crime. One of their earliest rackets? Counterfeiting.

    On this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, former mobster Sammy “The Bull” Gravano joins Adam in the studio! Adam kicks things off by asking Sammy if the Mafia still exists in any real form today, prompting Sammy to share wild stories from his past—including what justified a "hit," details on infamous figures like “The Iceman,” and even the grisly realities of body disposal. They also dig into modern court cases like the Diddy trial, failed socialist states like Cuba, and the collapse of leadership in places like California. Sammy shares insight on political bribery, claiming Democrats were easier to bribe than Republicans, and he reflects on the importance of the Mafia “code.”Fitness expert Vinnie Tortorich drops in to discuss today's modern health trends and their effectiveness. Adam shares his “safe spaces and octagons” theory, and Vinnie opens up about his experiences at Mount Whitney and extreme endurance events. They explore the truth behind infrared saunas and hyperbaric chambers, and Vinnie gives his hot takes on popular diet myths—debunking the health claims behind sourdough bread and brown rice, while promoting magnesium, creatine, and olive oil.In the news with Jason “Mayhem” Miller, the guys react to a viral airplane meltdown, where an entitled lawyer attempted to cut the deboarding line, sparking chaos and chants of “Karen!” from other passengers. The confrontation—complete with shouting, a crying baby, and social media backlash—leads to a broader conversation about travel etiquette and why patience is in short supply.

    In this gripping episode of History Rage, host Paul Bavill welcomes former mobster and author Lou Ferrante to dive deep into the world of organised crime. Lou shares his remarkable journey from a life of crime in Queens, New York, to becoming a celebrated author of the Mafia trilogy: "Borgata: Rise of Empire," "Clash of Titans," and "Autumn of Empire."Unveiling the Myths: Lou tackles the pervasive myths surrounding notorious mob figures, particularly Bugsy Siegel. He challenges the narrative that Siegel was killed due to the Flamingo's initial failures, exposing the far more complex reality of mob politics and financial control.Bugsy Siegel's Downfall: Discover the truth behind Siegel's assassination, which Lou argues stemmed from his attempts to squeeze more money from bookies rather than a simple failure of the Flamingo casino.The Role of Virginia Hill: Explore the misconceptions about Siegel's relationship with Hill and how their dynamic was misrepresented in popular culture.Hollywood vs. Reality: Lou discusses how films like "Goodfellas" and "Casino" shape public perceptions of the Mafia, often distorting the truth for dramatic effect.The Mafia's Influence: Lou provides insights into how the Mafia operated in Las Vegas, their control over the city, and the significant changes that occurred as the mob's influence waned in the late 20th century.Guest Information:Discover Lou's books: "Borgata: Rise of Empire", "Clash of Titans"Follow Lou on Twitter: @LouFerrante.Support History Rage on Patreon for early episode access, the chance to submit questions to guests, prize draws, and the exclusive History Rage mug at www.patreon.com/historyrage.To catch up on all the rage from bygone times, visit our website www.historyrage.com.If you want to get in touch with History Rage, email us at historyragepod@gmail.com.Follow History Rage on Social Media:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HistoryRageTwitter: https://twitter.com/HistoryRageInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/historyrage/Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/historyrage.bsky.socialStay Angry, Stay Informed - History Rage Hosted on Acast.

    On this episode of Visual Intonation, we sit down with Jamaican-American filmmaker Justice Silvera, a director whose eye is as grounded in real life as it is pulled toward the surreal. Raised in Ft. Lauderdale, Justice has forged a voice that is uniquely his own, shaped by experience, heritage, and a gift for weaving dreamlike tension into everyday moments. Justice's work has lit up screens in videos for artists like Polo G, Mustard, and 808 Mafia. But behind the lens is a man who once chased touchdowns before chasing frames, a storyteller who traded cleats for cameras and found power in narrative motion. He grew up the son of filmmaker Cess Silvera, absorbing cinema not just as art but as language. We talk about the rhythm of his visuals, the quiet pulse that gives his scenes their weight, and the influence of growing up in South Florida. He opens up about collaboration, especially with Miami cinematographer Sam Brave, whose eye helps bring their shared visions into sharp, emotional focus. If you love film that feels like a dream but hits like real life, if you're curious how place, heritage, and hustle come together to shape an artist's voice, then this conversation is for you. Justice Silvera brings intention to every frame, and this episode brings you into the mind behind the lens. https://www.instagram.com/justicesilvera/https://www.imdb.com/name/nm12984909/https://luckybastardsinc.com/project/justice-silvera/https://x.com/justicesilveraSupport the showVisual Intonation Website: https://www.visualintonations.com/Visual Intonation Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/visualintonation/Vante Gregory's Website: vantegregory.comVante Gregory's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/directedbyvante/ To support me on Patreon (thank you): patreon.com/visualintonations Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@visualintonation Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@directedbyvante

    My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Margaret Philbrick, author of the book House of Honor. Margaret is an award-winning novelist and an award-winning poet. She lives into her calling as a writer and life-long gardener to plant seeds in hearts. John Ruskin's view that the “greatest thing a human soul ever does in this world is to see something and tell what it saw in a plain way,” is a core motivation of her work in photography, poetry, painting, writing and music. Margaret writes across all genre and has essays in Christianity Today, Relevant, The Redbud Hyphen, and Patheos. Margaret is a founding member of the Redbud Writers Guild NFP and is the contributing editor of the Guild's collection of essays and poetry for women, Everbloom.  Margaret is a member of the Redbud Writers Guild, ACFW, Wedgewood Circle and the Door County Published Author Collective. You can find Margaret digging in the dirt or wandering in a forest and connect with her via her website.   In my book review, I stated House of Honor is a historical thriller set in Italy. Margaret touts the book as a Godfather meets The Da Vinci Code but with a redemptive twist. I tout it as a book I couldn't put down!   Orazio Bordoni is a son of a construction magnate - but he wants nothing more than to be an artist. So, he leaves home and follows on a similar path as Caravaggio - a 16th century artist very much admired by Orazio. Before long, Orazio is caught up in slimy Vatican politics, the Sicilian mafia, and a lover with a powerful political father.   What starts out as a "job" turns into a test - one where he must prove his loyalty to the mafia. Will Orazio lose his family? His lover? His friends? His art? His life? The tale twists and turns, often leaving the reader breathless.   Margaret does an amazing job helping the reader experience the underbelly of Italy while exposing us to the world of art - all while keeping us guessing as to what will happen next. If you like a good thriller, then you'll love House of Honor.   Subscribe to Online for Authors to learn about more great books! https://www.youtube.com/@onlineforauthors?sub_confirmation=1   Join the Novels N Latte Book Club community to discuss this and other books with like-minded readers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3576519880426290   You can follow Author Margaret Philbrick Website: https://margaretphilbrick.com/ IG: @margaretannphilbrick/ IG (poetry): @seasonedpoetess FB: @margaret.philbrick.9 TikTok: @seasonedpoetess   Purchase House of Honor on Amazon: Paperback: https://amzn.to/4kdj8Hh Ebook: https://amzn.to/43pelwO   Teri M Brown, Author and Podcast Host: https://www.terimbrown.com FB: @TeriMBrownAuthor IG: @terimbrown_author X: @terimbrown1   Want to be a guest on Online for Authors?

    Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Reid Hoffman, Max Levchin, David O. Sacks, Roelof Botha, Chad Hurley, Russel Simmons, and Jeremy Stoppelman are among those considered the “PayPal Mafia”. These are cofounders or early team members of PayPal who went on to found or invest in major tech companies like Yelp, Palantir, YouTube, Facebook, SpaceX, X, LinkedIn, Affirm, Airbnb, and others. In this episode, CJ is joined by Jimmy Soni, bestselling author of The Founders, which chronicles the early years of PayPal. He delves into some of the lesser-known aspects of PayPal's history. He sheds light on Peter Thiel's prediction of the dot-com collapse, why he advocated for the employment of Roelof Botha as CFO at the age of just 26, and his second-chance philosophy for hiring failures. The conversation covers PayPal's “frenemy relationship” with eBay, how they convinced their users to advocate for them, and pivotal moments that influenced their IPO and sale.

    Being a Volkswagen Bus enthusiast is a challenge—but being a classic VW Bus guy in Canada is a whole different story. With harsh winters, salted roads, and constant snow and ice, early VW Buses are rare survivors in the north. But every now and then, someone gets lucky. In this episode, we sit down with AJ Welsh, a true OG in the Canadian air-cooled VW scene and a proud member of the Four Stack Mafia. AJ shares the incredible story behind his 1967 VW Bus, which became so iconic it was featured on a Canadian postcard and postage stamp. If you've ever seen a Volkswagen Bus on Canadian mail, chances are—it was his. We also dive into the wild backstory of his latest project, a 1955 VW Kombi Bus with suicide doors and retro 1980s scallop paint. First spotted on Vancouver Island in 1987, the Bus went from a local treasure to a touring band's rig, before AJ finally tracked it down decades later. AJ also tells us how the Four Stack Mafia got started and gives a preview of their epic Niagara Falls VW Campout, a pre-show event leading into the Niagara Falls VW Show & Social.

    Harvard Law Professor Jack Goldsmith didn't just study organized crime—he lived it. As the son of a notorious mob lawyer and stepson of a hitman, Goldsmith had unprecedented access to the inner workings of America's most powerful criminal organization. Now, his explosive revelations about Jimmy Hoffa's disappearance connect to a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of government and explains how the mob didn't just influence labor unions—they infiltrated the entire American power structure.This isn't just another Hoffa theory from an outsider. Goldsmith's family connections gave him access to conversations, documents, and secrets that most researchers could never obtain. We're talking about firsthand knowledge of how the mob operated, who gave the orders, and why Hoffa's elimination was just the beginning of a systematic takeover that continues to this day.Our explosive investigation reveals how Goldsmith's unique position allowed him to uncover connections between organized crime families, government agencies, and corporate power structures that most people would find impossible to believe. The rise and fall of the mob wasn't just about bootlegging and gambling—it was about creating a shadow government that could control labor, politics, and information flow across America. From his insider knowledge of mob operations to his later work in government intelligence, Goldsmith witnessed how the same networks that made Hoffa disappear also influence elections, suppress investigations, and maintain control over American institutions. Mystery enthusiasts and truth-seekers know that some witnesses have access to information that others can only speculate about—and this episode proves why Goldsmith's testimony is so dangerous. We'll reveal how labor unions became the mob's gateway to controlling entire industries, how Hoffa's murder connected to ongoing government operations, and how the supposed "fall" of organized crime was actually just their evolution into more sophisticated forms of control. The mob didn't disappear—they went legitimate and became even more powerful. From union halls to government offices, from corporate boardrooms to university lecture halls, this episode exposes how one man's family connections allowed him to document the greatest conspiracy in American labor history. Goldsmith's revelations aren't just academic research—they're insider testimony from someone who grew up in the world that most people only see in movies. The rise and fall of the mob is really the story of how organized crime became organized government, and Goldsmith's unique perspective reveals how this transformation shaped modern America in ways that most citizens never realize.

    You think you know what's in your food? Think again. The Italian Mafia hasn't just infiltrated restaurants and grocery stores—they've systematically taken control of the entire global food production system, and what they're doing to your meals connects to the darkest mysteries plaguing humanity today. This isn't just about organized crime skimming profits. We're talking about deliberate contamination, mind-control additives, and food supply manipulation that ties directly into government black projects, extraterrestrial technology, and the systematic dumbing down of the human population. The same families controlling your pizza are the ones working with shadowy forces to alter human consciousness through what we consume daily. Our explosive investigation reveals how Mafia-controlled food operations connect to UFO crash retrievals, where alien biotechnology is reverse-engineered into food additives that suppress psychic abilities and interdimensional awareness. From GMO labs to processing plants, from distribution networks to your local supermarket, every bite you take is part of a massive experiment in human control. We've uncovered evidence linking food production facilities to underground bases, cattle mutilation sites, and missing persons cases that the FBI refuses to investigate. The chemicals they're putting in your food aren't just preservatives—they're designed to block your ability to perceive the unexplained phenomena happening all around us. Mystery enthusiasts know something's wrong with the world—but did you know it starts with breakfast? From breakfast cereals laced with consciousness-suppressing compounds to organic foods that aren't what they seem, this episode exposes how the Mafia became the enforcement arm of a much larger conspiracy involving non-human intelligences. The truth about Bigfoot encounters, UFO sightings, and paranormal experiences isn't just being covered up—it's being chemically suppressed through your daily meals. This is why disclosure keeps getting delayed, why witnesses forget their encounters, and why the general population remains asleep to the mysteries surrounding us.

    They thought they could control America from the shadows. Instead, they unleashed forces that would tear apart the very fabric of reality itself. The unholy alliance between JFK, Frank Sinatra, and the Mafia wasn't just about politics and entertainment—it was about accessing secrets that humanity wasn't supposed to know. This explosive documentary reveals how the Kennedy administration's deepest classified programs intersected with organized crime's most mysterious operations and Hollywood's strangest cover-ups. We're talking about secret government experiments with psychic phenomena, UFO retrieval operations, and interdimensional research that connects directly to today's most unexplained mysteries. From Roswell to Dallas, from Area 51 to the Copa, the same network that brought JFK to power also had access to extraterrestrial technology, time manipulation experiments, and contact with non-human intelligences. Sinatra wasn't just entertaining the elite—he was their conduit to otherworldly encounters that the Rat Pack witnessed firsthand but were sworn to never reveal. Our investigation uncovers never-before-heard recordings of JFK discussing "the visitors," FBI files on Sinatra's unexplained absences during critical UFO incidents, and mob testimony about "the tall ones" who provided technology in exchange for silence. The same forces that orchestrated the Kennedy assassination also control disclosure about extraterrestrial contact, Bigfoot encounters, and dimensional portals. What happened in Dallas wasn't just political—it was cosmic. The truth about November 22nd connects to every major unexplained phenomenon since 1963, from cattle mutilations to missing time incidents, from government mind control programs to the ongoing cover-up of humanity's true origins. Mystery enthusiasts and truth-seekers, this is the missing piece that explains why disclosure has been delayed for 60 years.

    Goodfellas meets Savages meets Catch Me If You Can in this true tale of high-stakes smuggling from pot's outlaw years. Richard Stratton was the unlikeliest of kingpins. A clean-cut Wellesley boy who entered outlaw culture on a trip to Mexico, he saw his search for a joint morph into a thrill-filled dope run, smuggling two kilos across the border in his car door. He became a member of the Hippie Mafia, traveling the world to keep America high, living the underground life while embracing the hippie credo, rejecting hard drugs in favor of marijuana and hashish. With cameos by Whitey Bulger and Norman Mailer, Smuggler's Blues tells Stratton's adventure while centering on his last years as he travels from New York to Lebanon's Bekaa Valley to source and smuggle high-grade hash in the midst of civil war, from the Caribbean to the backwoods of Maine, and from the Chelsea Hotel to the Plaza as his fortunes rise and fall. All the while he is being pursued by his nemesis, a philosophical DEA agent who respects him for his good business practices. A true-crime story that sounds like fiction, Smuggler's Blues is a psychedelic road trip through international drug smuggling, the hippie underground, and the war on weed. As Big Marijuana emerges, it brings to vivid life an important chapter in pot's cultural history.https://amzn.to/3TMQu4xBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.
