Summary

Over the last five years the Mafia genre has seen various former mobsters enter a new life... here on YouTube. They have been seen on their own channels as well as big platforms giving interviews about their lives in the Mob. One person we've seen a lot of is Genovese mobster Anthony Arillotta, a gangster from Springfield, Mass. Today I delve in further to his story as he ascended to the top and eventually it all came crashing down.

Jeff Nadu is an American Mafia researcher, podcaster and content creator. He has worked at Barstool Sports and was hired personally by Dave Portnoy. His podcast "The Sitdown" with Jeff Nadu has put out hundreds of biographies on various mobsters, gangsters and criminals. He's also personally interviewed mobsters like Sammy "The Bull" Gravano, Dom Cicale, Anthony Ruggiano Jr, Gene Borrello and others as well as US Prosecutor John Gleeson and FBI Agent Joaquin "Jack" Garcia. He has been personally endorsed by former Gambino mob captain Michael "Mikey Scars" DiLeonardo and esteemed author RJ Roger.
