Summary

Your host, Gary Jenkins and Camulius Robinson want you to know that we are well and still making podcasts like crazy. Cam and I are going to release several in the next week to help entertain all the wiretappers during this time of crisis. After a lifetime of running into the breach where the public was in danger, I feel like doing a few extra podcasts and releasing them is the least I can do. Please disregard all the requests for donations inserted into these because we are good here and during this time of financial insecurity, we need to protect our families. Cam and I wish you all well and I am sure we will all survive and prosper after this time of fear, insecurity, and uncomfortableness. I am not used to being restricted in any manner and now I have to practiv=ce a lot more self-discipline than I want to practice. We will pull together and make it, of that I am sure. Stay safe all you wiretappers and keep your distance.   To rent Brothers against Brothers, the documentary, click here.  To go to the store or make a donation click here To rent Brothers against Brothers, the documentary, click here.  To rent Gangland Wire, the documentary, click here To subscribe on iTunes click here, please give me a review and help others find the podcast.

0:13.4

Well, good evening, all you are tapers out there.

0:15.3

This is an extra episode just to let you know what's coming.

0:18.8

At this point in time, we're all kind of stuck inside,

0:21.8

or at least stuck away from work for the most part. And I want to be able to do something, do my part.

0:29.1

And the only thing I could think of was I've got a bunch of podcasts all ready together,

0:34.0

and I want to go ahead and put them out right away for your entertainment.

0:43.1

The first one is going to be my interview of Gambino Soldier Michael D. Leonardo.

0:49.5

I got hold of him at his home here two or three days ago, and we had a nice long interview and a good conversation.

0:51.3

And when you listen to that one, that will be the first, the next one you see coming

0:55.6

out. Listen closely at about 37 minutes because you're going to hear his description of his

1:03.2

induction ceremony into the Gambino crime family and how that went down. And remember, he was

1:09.8

made at the same time as John Gotti Jr., so

1:12.8

John Gotti Sr. couldn't be there to conduct the ceremony. He didn't want to give the appearance

1:17.8

of impropriety of making his own son. There was a lot of controversy about making John Gotti

1:22.9

Jr. anyhow. At the time, Sammy the Bull Gravano actually conducted that ceremony. It's a really blow-by-blow

1:32.0

description of what went down that night. This is a really long interview, and I planned on

1:37.2

releasing it in two separate podcasts, two separate weeks, kind of stretch it out, you know.

1:42.8

But, you know, like I said, I'm going to put out a

1:45.6

whole bunch of them in a short period of time here over the next couple weeks, so you guys will

1:50.4

have something to be entertained with. If you're stuck at home and you can't really go to work,
