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 toil in case I ever had to use it. Because one day, Dolores had a chat with me. Says she got words. Someone was coming after me.

My heart started beating rapidly.

I looked in front of me and back of me.

Who thinks they're whacking me?

Some weeks past.

No one's made. Welcome, everybody to Hollywood Godfather, and we have a very interesting guest. I've known as, and she's a little girl.

First, I want to introduce my co-host and writer, Pat Pichorelli.

Hi, everybody.

And Megan, our millennium, she's going to feel very comfortable having another lady on the show.

We very rarely have ladies, fortunately, and I can vouch for this girl.

In fact, she actually interviewed me.

I don't know if you remember it at a CNN building on Sunset many years ago. Do you remember

that, Allison?

Of course I remember. I remember very well. How could I not remember interviewing you?

That's the voice of Allison Martino.

And her father, obviously, is the famous Al Martino.
