Is Pennisi's stuff considered reliable? His piece on street tax was interesting.

Of course. But he is still the best source of first hand information on modern LCN we have. It's not 'Bias' at all.

Everything he has mentioned about mob street tax has already been referenced in elsewhere in some form or another. You may not like him, but you really just don't have anything to prove otherwise.

Pennisi just comes off as very bitter and childish especially when talking about certain guys (boobsie, sideburns) I think he purposely tries to make certain guys sounds bad but I don’t think he makes up these crazy lies/stories like most other rats

actually what im trying to say regarding

[Etna]

Bitter is one thing. Is he biased? He's like every other human on this earth. He was personally involved.

I've listened to Pennisi way more than any of the other rats/mob content out there and I always used to think he went too out of his way to be hard on guys like Johnny Sideburns and the Castelle brothers...but at the same time he was personally around these guys a lot. Maybe they really were assholes and low key made life miserable for him. To his credit, even though it's rare, he has brought up times where Castellucci "did the right thing", or was fair, or stood up for his guys, etc.

Pennisi clearly has the most hatred for Big John, there has to be at least 5 videos dedicated solely to him

You really can't blame him. If what JP says is true, and I don't doubt him, Big John made a play for JP's girl. That's a MAJOR no-no in the life. But some pathological pricks play that game. It's not so much about the girl, but more about belittling the underling. Used to see it all the time back in the day, particularly with made guys and associates. Very territorial "mark my property" type thing. The rules exist for a reason....you are not supposed to fuck around with another guy (even an associates) girl, sister, wife, anything. This creates big problems and animosity for no reason. Just really stupid and shows that Big John had no business being a skipper, never mind even a straightened out guy. Just my 2 cents.

Big John also spread the rumor JP went bad.
