Summary

On Episode 38 of the Sit Down, Jeff and BlackJack delve into one of the most bizarre events in mob history, the killing of Gambino acting boss Frank Cali. Cali was a rising star and heavyweight in the current day leadership and many believed a mob war started when he was killed, it ended up being an unlikely suspect. We also delve into some of your questions in a special Christmas Q/A and I recommend some of my favorite mob books! Cali biography starts at 38:21 SHOW NOTE: WE WILL BE OFF NEXT WEEK THE WEEK OF THE 28th FOR THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY, WE WILL RETURN WED JAN 5.
