If Mazza is accurate about Junior and Allie Boy being well aware of Scarpa’s informant status, then I can see Junior trying to get MF back into the fold when he realized he wasn’t gonna put any wiseguys away. Especially if they needed the $$$. Who knows.

the thing about Larry now most recently, he called himself an earner as compared to calandra. Lol he worked at a grocery store and Scarpa put him in a bunch of his businesses to make money And maybe he let the mob work for him in a way. But in no way am I buying that statement that he was an earner. He did probably make more money while in Scarpas crew than he has ever since he flipped. And Gunner is claiming he is some Renaissance man (Novelist, writer, teacher etc etc ''with serious players watching me") and a CEO of what... he has to have next to zero sales in his clothing line, no? I mean who's buying a spandex shirt saying our thing.
if you go on his website he's got some ambitious plans for a guy who gets minimal views on his yt channel. Open a chain of "our thing" restaurants, bourbon, retail clothing stores and the list goes on... like dude you were the Jimmy calandra of Detroit...

Calandras channel has twice the amount of subs as gunner and hes only been on for 2 months maybe. I’m sure going on Sammys show helped but also him stirring up trouble helps him since his name is being mentioned in the rat wars on social media

Are there debriefings/transcripts online where Scarpa talks about MF? Would love to read/see what he was actually like and not the "gentle don" act he puts on.

Also I think people have known about Jimmy Calandras story for a while now and have seen him on various TV documentaries on the mob. So it's almost like we been waiting to hear what he has to say bs someone like Pennisis who we never have been anticipating to hear fro.

There’s no question Calandra owes a big part of his viewership to the fact that there was already a whole documentary done on he and his friends. And Franzese is in the same boat. He’s been doing national press for a long time. The first time I ever heard him (maybe 17-18 years ago) was when I was in high school and he would go on the Jim Rome show every year. And Jim Rome—who is in the top 1% of people who like to hear themselves talk—would give Franzese the floor for his whole 3 hour nationally syndicated radio show to tell his story. And then he wound up in a handful of mob docs. It’s like presidential primaries. Name recognition is like 85% of the battle. If Pennisi had been on Real Housewives of whatever he’d be getting 100k+ views per episode.

Interestingly in Calandras latest video he claimed Gaspipe Casso was behind the 1991 murder of Marc Goldberg. Apparently, Anthony Spero wanted Goldberg on record with him and asked Gaspipe to release Goldberg. Afterwards, Casso had him whacked. The story doesn’t seem that far fetched considering how much of a paranoid psychopath Casso was. Here’s a link to the video for anyone who’s interested- https://youtu.be/3k3ZSq0R-Ro

Lol Hootie put out a IG rant today and in the comments he called Calandra a “saucy cunt”. He’s furious he only has 300 subscribers and Calandra has thousands. He doesn’t say anyone’s name in the video but you can tell he’s talking about Calandra and Pennisi.

I think his page is private now but you can try it https://www.instagram.com/tv/CQQ-92TlLs ... =copy_link

I really think Hootie thought he was gonna put out a few YouTube videos about selling drugs and running with wiseguys and the money and opportunity would start rolling in. The only problem is those videos were part of a larger group of videos in which Hootie was smacked out of his goddamn mind. And, not for nothing, but this is America—a lot of guys sold drugs. Your street story has to be pretty unique and newsworthy if you are going to profit off of retelling it. And even if you were that guy, being halfway in a nod while sharing those stories is obviously going to undercut your credibility.
