My name is Gianni Russo, aka Carlo, the infamous son-in-law from the godfather.

I'm now known as the Hollywood Godfather, and this is my story.

Before all of the wins in my portfolio, I was a little boy diagnosed with polio.

Experimenting with cures, I tried I tried everyone felt everything in my right

but my left was numb walking with a limp like will I ever run once again or is this it

am I forever done living in the hospital was never fun some people were cool but not everyone

you never know who you're lying in a room with. So I broke a broomstick in half and let it groove with the concrete in the bathroom floor. It had a new tip, stashed it behind it toilet in case I ever had to use it. Because one day Dolores had a chat with me. Says she got word someone was coming after me.

My heart started beating rapidly.

Speak softly loud and hold me warm against your heart.

I hear your words, the tender trembling.

Welcome everybody to another episode of Hollywood Godfather podcast.

And as usual, my compadry co-writer and friend Pat Pitcharelli is co-hosting with me.

And today, I'm excited because finally we have this lady that I've been trying to get on.

I've known her socially.

We've been out with mutual friends and watch her constantly on television.

She's very outspoken and thank God she has said she'd do the show with us today.

And I'll have Pat introduce you. There was more? Oh yeah. Oh, there's more.

Okay. Today we have with us Judge Jeanine Piro, she's corresponding for Fox.

She has a great resume, which I like to quote, but we only have 45 minutes.

So we're going to have to just welcome her because we want to welcome her.

And by the way, Judge, Joe Akapinti, what we had on the show last week, says hello.

You know, I haven't heard Joe's name in a long time.
