I'm not saying they arent but he seems sketch about everything...he obviously has a screw loose with his ghost stories and theories...
So many years in prison will do that. What was it 17 of his prime years wasted away in a cell? And state prison not the fed. If you know prisons you know the state systems are 100x worse than the federal system.

I don’t know why people focus on the ghost stuff, a lot of Italians are religiously very superstitious. Rita Gigante thinks she’s vaguely psychic lol

His prison time might have nothing to do with that. Numerous studies have shown that high stress situations can cause people to think they perceived a religious experience/miracle/sign and there is a strong correlation between high stress life events and spiritual development. Pennisi was clearly super stressed out during that time of his life and so it is perfectly reasonable for him to think and rationalize those moments through what he thought was a religious moment. People are overthinking it, using it to call him crazy or to discredit him or whatever, but it is simply an event that can happen to people in these moments.

Human history is filled with it. The "dark night of the soul" is a universal phenomenon no matter how a person or culture chooses to interpret/explain/describe it. Some would call it a psychological breakdown others might say it's a spiritual crisis. Often it's both.

Aren't those Indian ppl in Edison and the Hasids?

I mean prison and Pennisi aside, is it really that strange for a wise guy to be paranoid about what they think is an agents surveillance van following them? Lmao it probably happens all the time.

Not only that but the guy went from made men in the mob to running a whole gossip column on YouTube. I’ve said it many times before that I appreciate the info he brings to the table but the guys a whole weirdo.
That’s the guy, Adriana. My Uncle Tony. The guy I’m going to hell for.

If you think that the mafia isn't a sewing circle than you have much more faith than I.

Ahh..it was a Sopranos reference. I don't know shit about boats besides having the privilege of getting on one and hanging out once in a blue moon. Even if I hit a superfecta I don't think I'd ever spend money on a boat or nautical related activities

Agree. Ever been to Naples? The entire city is trying to resurrect saints and shrines at every turn.

Maybe Italy, but Italians born here at least from my family and my moms and dad's side are both from there. My parents were born here and I seen my grandmother do the "horns" from time to time and go to church, but never anything on John Pennisi level.
