I listened to a few of those. Terrible.
I attempted to make it through a few of them. Not listening to them at least 1.75x or even double speed, is simply excruciating. What a complete fucking idiot. I don’t think I heard him pronounce one single name correctly. He has an unbelievably hittable face

It’s really a shame that Chicago doesn’t have a George Anastasia type roaming around. Binder I’d guess I the closest thing, but he’s just a corny old historian with no real knowledge of modern players nor structure

Instead youtubers obtain their Chicago family info from one of the dumbest weirdos on the platform (JCosenza)

Do you have a picture of this guy?
He has what is one of the most popular outfit YouTube channels, under the name JCosenza. Calls himself Jimmy Cosenza. His videos are mostly detailing the outfit trials he has attended throughout the years, which range from the Carlisi crew trial all the way up until the recent Cassano and Galione trial.

He’s a short fat guy who is basically illiterate and has really bad pronunciation issues. He has shared photos of himself with people like Carparelli, and claimed they are his buddies, but others say that he just stalks these guys and photo bombs their pictures.

He’s also infamous for defending the outfit to almost a creepy extent, telling people they’re dead and to stop paying them attention, but then in the same breath he will try and tell people who is who on the street.

Also gets upset whenever anyone suggests that the outfit was involved with drugs of any kind, which I find particularly strange

Chicago has always been a "what have you done for me lately" type of family. It's been strongly hinted that Lombardo was on the shelf when he was indicted and Marcello's powerbase had severely eroded by the time of his conviction. Sarno (and by extension, a lot of his guys) was probably happy to see him go away, especially after he (allegedly) had Marcello's top guy disappeared. All that said, it does appear that Frank Jr. isn't just someone who can walk into any place in the city and be treated like one of the guys, either.

Yeah but if they did anything even more guys would end up in Supermax.
I believe Kurt more then I believe Junior. But then again I have a hard time believing Kurt on some things. For example, if you are so scared of the guy, why not just put the money in the bank like he asked? Kurt said how if he got pulled over it would be his responsibility. OK, so that excuse sounded like bullshit. And Frank saying that was "everybody's money" sounded like bullshit too.
Agreed. Wasn’t he just supposed to put the money in a bank safe deposit box?

For example, Frank says, he partied a little before going to prison so he can get a drug rehab in prison so he can get less time. As if it was some plan he devised on his own.

Yea total fanboy. Shows up at a lot of the local spots and tries to record, eavesdrop and than uses it for his channel. Btw, His last name isn’t cosenza. That’s his mom’s maiden name which he uses to sound more Italian.

I thought it was really good. Great to hear a different perspective on Frank Jr.

all that aside i just finished john hagedorns insane chicago way and was impressed with book. i wont go into details as it has been discussed but it really shed light on how chicago functions at a street level from the outfit to gangs, cops, politicians the whole machine. i also have been working up some charts from 1992 and on. thus far these are text only charts for i am no computer design guy, very black and white.

anyway wanted to say hey. have a good night all, chat soon.
I don't come around as often as I used to, but glad to see you here and welcome to the group.
