Thank you for the kind words. It's appreciated and I'm even further humbled. That being said, I'm more of a listener than a talker and if I went on I'd start asking Pennisi where his family is from and start talking recipes, Tom would be sitting there with a WTF look. I know my limitations. But B. and Antiliar, they would come up with great questions on the spot, have a very interesting back and forth and Tom/John/listeners would even learn a few things. Not that they're going to teach John anything about the life as an amico nos, but they'll ask questions and make connections that John might not have noticed when he was in it. I very strongly believe that those conversations would be amazing, educational and informative.
Remember how in Donnie Brasco, Pistone talks about him and Lefty meeting with those drug dealers and the dealers suddenly canceled the deal not because they were afraid of Lefty, but because they felt "Donnie" had the eyes of a killer?
That's how I feel when I look at Tom.
I’m 100% sincere when I say that if Tom really did spend time in a managerial position in the corporate world, specifically on the finance side, than he has seen *some shit*. Some absolutely soulless shit.
