John Pennisi Sighting / Sit Down News

[SonnyBlackstein]

Son of the Westside Barone which flipped? No idea who this guy is. Made?

Yes George was his father and no Joe was not made. Joe has done the internet rounds so if you look you can definitely find info on him or even interviews he's done.

Thanks Johnny.

These guys arnt making videos for money because to make good money on youtbe you need to get millions of views a month

Real money comes from sponsors, Patreon, etc. now, not views/ads (like you said, if you get a million views it's only like a grand in ad money).

Patreon is very hard to make money on.Dom cicale tried it and failed only people with a really loyal fanbase can make their subscribers pay.Big channnels like micheal and sammy.Joey is doing well on patreon but how much longer will that last when people figure out hes never going to give them the stories that they want

How do you know Merlino is doing well on Patreon? You cant see how many people he has on it can you

Hes been on for over a month and still charging $15 he didnt need to lower his price or come back to youtube

As far as I can tell it's not publicly visible how many patrons they have, but there's some clues based on their posts. The most likes they have is 159, so that'd mean they at least have that many patrons. There are more comments on some of these posts but I think patrons can leave multiple comments on one post, so likes seems like the most accurate indicator of how many have signed up.

If they're charging $15 per patron then they'll be making at least $2,385 per month. Not that much overall, especially considering it's not just Merlino on his own looking to make money but a larger team. But then again this is only an indicator.

I'm assuming not everyone who subscribes will engage with posts, so there's probably more patrons. That post with 159 likes was also back in December, so who knows if they've maintained it since then. The likes have dropped off anyway. They're also taking sponsorships now I believe so there'll be some money from that too.

That isn't a good indicator, doubt its the price point, just not that many people are interested in paying for it. Most peoples subscriber number on patreon is visible, they've hidden it. You have Youtubers with like 5 million subscribers and only have like 2 thousand patreons

Weres all those Colombo guys around tommy shots that flipped. They don't want 15 min of mobtube fame

It would be great if they did. Some other Colombo members flip during 2011 but I think they’ve all passed away, with the exception of Anthony Russo.
Would be great to see him on YouTube

Wonder if he's on paper.
He'll never leave the life you figure. Only 71.

Due to the severity of his crimes, he will probably be on paper for 5 years which is the usual time for serious charges. Joel Cacace’s time on paper is up next year…I wonder if he’s getting back into it

Gioeli planned on retiring during 2008

He should be shelved for that blog he wrote after he got indicted

Joel Cacace’s time on paper is up next year…I wonder if he’s getting back into it

Another big name. He's 82.
Geoili is 71 but likely 5 years on paper.
Teddy is gone for 6 years. 59.
Castellazzo is going for 15 months. 86.
DiMatteo is going for 3 years. 69.

Surely Cacace would be acting to assist D'nofrio? Castellazzo has to be out hell be 88 when he's home.
Maybe a reshuffle and Dimatteo goes to under with Joel consig due to age.
Wonder hiw Geoili and Teddy get along. You'd think he and Cacace would have to have roles running things at some stage.

Luke's have shown that when names come home they often don't just retire.

That’s the thing about Scott we all know he knows better but instead of being honest and truthful he sensationalizes things for likes.
It’s a shame and takes away from his credibility.

No ones perfect. But being that he is the boss of the top family it is assumed he is the "biggest boss" or better than the other families bosses. Scotts using ancient terms or movie terms because thats who he is not because hes trying to trick the reader.

I wonder how much heat Cacace has on him, there was a time when he couldn’t do anything at all because of heat so he had Tommy Gioeli take care of business for him.
Andy Russo’s sons could step up. Billy Russo is a Capo if I remember correctly.
Little Carmine Persico who is a Capo
Sally Bread Cambria who used to be a Street Boss
Michael Persico should be the one advising Donofrio
Surely there’s gotta be more to the Colombo’s then just the names that we have mentioned.

[AntComello]

Didn’t Cacace have a police officer killed? You would think that would give him a lifetime target on his back by the feds.
