NYMafia, you have over 8,000 posts here, a website that you constantly promote, and a Youtube channel. Yet you are throwing a fit about Merlino having a podcast to give his side of things.

I agree with CNote's comment, I have the same thought.

Maybe you and Lisa are one in the same person, I don't know but until you clarify what meant when you stated you have a husband, I have to call you out here.

Your infantile attacks on me are actually laughable...predictable and so pathetic!

I'm not throwing a fit. Not at all. To the contrary, I'm just stating facts (in a thread that was previously started by another forum member, by the way.) And I'm doing so in a very calm and methodical and surgical way.

To the contrary, you, CNote and "Westchester" are the ones who are now feeling the heat and starting to shit your frilly panties. LOL.

And judging from those sorry ass statistics I just posted up for everyone on this forum to see and read for themselves, who could say they blame you, right? LOL

Joey annoys me more than just about any of the other mobtube guys. I means he’s a snake for sure but is really a bigger attention whore

I've suspected for a while that NYMafia was a woman, but does it really matter?? This is someone who contributes more than almost anybody

Haha Joey reeks of hatred and misery. I always feel like I need a shower after listening to him. He is funny though lol

These continuous infantile attacks aimed at me are actually laughable...predictable, pathetic, and only serve to display and prove you're growing frustrations.

In fact, you're childish "elementary schoolyard level" comments provide proof positive that I am correct in all my assumptions. (So, by all means, do keep it up...like I care. To the contrary, I actually find it quite amusing)

All I did was state clear facts and statistics (in a thread started by another forum member) And I did so in a very calm and methodical and surgical way. But I guess the facts don't work very well with your false narratives and bullshit agenda...They are a very inconvenient truth.

So now Jaceydom, CNote, JCrusher, and Giacalone and a few others are trying they're best to make a "coordinated" attack on me. Because in truth, They are the ones now feeling the heat after being "outed" and are now shitting they're frilly panties.

And judging from those sorry ass statistics I just posted up earlier for everyone on this forum to see and read for themselves, who could say they blame them, right?

Basically, you guys are embarrassing yourselves more and more to no end. But like I said, "by all means, keep it up. I'm sure everybody here is getting a real good laugh at your expense. (I know we are)

These joey interviews are brilliant/hilarious.. I think he can do what he wants and he doesn’t care what anyone has to say about it. When NY called him down for a meeting when he was going at it with Stanfa he said they can get f*cked. I really don’t think he cares what anyone thinks as long as he isn’t a rat, especially after serving decades due to a continuous line of rats.

I don't want to get involved into this argument, but actually JCrusher didn't attack you, he said Merlino is annoying and attention-seeking, just like you said yourself previously. I think he actually agreed with you.

JCrusher deleted his comment. He agreed with the rest of us, but no one is attacking anyone

The guy is funny. I almost wish he had picked stand-up instead of crime lol

. This. Thanks Dwalin!

. The only thing I agreed with you particularly on is that NYMafia is a good poster and personal attacks are ridiculous to do. I’m still really confused how I was looped into this that’s why I deleted my post

Exactly, and we both agreed that NYMafia's gender should not matter. We're all here to enjoy the forum

His gender matters due to him making it an issue all this time, such as claiming he hung with wise guys as a friend, and caring himself "The other guy." He used man's name as a user name on the other site that kicked him out the door, forcing him to come here. When the slip came and a husband was mentioned, that showed something was amiss. It should be addressed by them. Instead it is avoided.

He never asked for all the attention that law enforcement weasels have thrown out for several decade about him. I hope more people like him come out and speak up. Time has come for pushback. He's shedding light on what the government and their sleazy informers have been up to, more people need to see it.

Does that interviewer ever get a name right?

NOW FOR THE TRUTH...

Here is proof positive evidence that so-called “informant push back” podcasts are failing miserably;

A) One particular podcast that focuses on the subject of “lying rats” has been operating for several years already. Yet, more than two years later, they only have 1500 subscribers to show for all their desperate efforts. This clearly shows their content is lacking and their podcast is sucking wind badly. Obviously their content is so boring nobody listens to them.

B) Another affiliated podcast, formed at least as many years ago, also focuses on “exposing rats” and is in similarly bad shape. This podcast only has around 1000 subscribers.

After so many years and yet only 1500 subs and 1000 subs to show for it?

These undeniable statistics clearly show that the general public is not interested in such content.

Any legitimate bricks-n-mortar business producing these paltry numbers would have already closed up and filed for bankruptcy protection.

PS: Frankly, these podcasts are also known to actually "buy" views/subs to bolster up their appearance and make it appear that their failing podcasts are successful. So the 1500 and 1000 sub numbers are not even real. I wouldn't be surprised to find out, in reality, they only have a few hundred subs each.

We only see Melino on camera. Perhaps behind the scenes he is feeling a lot of guilt about not being there for his daughters hence the podcast to make money? I am pretty sure thats what Gravano did it for.. Dont get me wrong, Im sure they also want the money but I do think Gravano ( believe it or not) feels a lot of guilt about his kids, I know I would.

I think it’s a hard sell to the average person that the criminals are saints and the rats are liars etc. not saying everything rats say are to be believed but ultimately people are interested in hearing about the mob and how it operates, the culture etc. people sitting there slamming the people who provide the only public insight into the mob are not going to gather widespread interest except for the fanboys of gangsters. Which also confuses me that people go on a public forum talking about the mafia and then act like they abide by omertà and want rats to be murdered, odd.

I do disagree that Joeys podcast wont survive. It’s an extremely unique podcast and people are gonna want to hear him purely based on who he is (me included). The only threat to it is if he does change his mind and cares about the publicity for the mob but as people have said on here a few times he does not give a fuck lol, so fair play to him I will watch it pending the topics

My thoughts on the podcast:

As someone who has no involvement, but a deep interest in that life, I don't have any problem with him doing it. I don't think he wants to go into specifics about mafia related things. I think he just wants to shine a light on rats and the ridiculous treatment they get from the FBI. Here's the thing, He obviously has a few cash flow issues. Between the gambling, the cars, and clothes it doesn't take a whole lot to come to the conclusion that he needs money. Right now, podcasts and internet shows are where it's at. My guess is that he walked away from the life, and needed to find a way to find a consistent income stream. Just by his instagram posts, its apparent that he likes the high life. There are tons of guys right now who are making money doing this, and none of them--maybe besides Sammy--are even close to as polarizing as he is. Whether you agree with him doing it or not, overall his podcast is entertaining, and there's a big market for people who want to hear from him. Also, the mob is no longer a secret society. It hasn't been that for decades. And even with that, I still don't think thats an area he'll ever delve too deep into. He's pretty smart and cautious that way.

I dont think it's an issue of whether criminals are saints and rats are liars. I think it's the fact that the criminals or former criminals (merlino) on YouTube actually took responsibility and did their time without the usual blame game bs. People seem to gravitate towards that.

This may be your point but most people do not care about their integrity as a rat or a stand up guy. They just wanna hear stories and get insider knowledge which is only going to come from a rat who has already confessed to their crimes. I also personally don’t care too much about whether a rat is more of a scumbag than a non-rat. They’re all criminals and I just like getting insight into that life from people who know better than I do.

I agree but I think the whole " stand up" part is what Merlino's differentiation is. I also think people get bored of the rat stories because they lose credibility.

A Joe Rogan earns millions, but most (organized crime) podcasts don't make a lot of money.

I think merlino has the most unique stance of all as a (former) boss, potentially active! It’s hard to beat lol. I am not complaining about him being on YouTube, my only view of it is that active guys in the mob are complaining/are not happy lol

Merlino with a big name producer and big name guests must be making decent money I would think. I imagine Kevin Connolly is paying him a salary and then he’s hoping to cash in on the marketing. Connolly or whatever production company he’s linked to. If that is correct then the producers are gonna want Merlino to touch as close to the mob topics as they can get him to as that’s what people want to hear him talking about lol

I figured Half of these accounts on are probably nymafia .

Merlino show already lost its luster for me . If he won’t talk about mob stuff then who cares what he has to say . He’s basically a a bottom feeder who spent a 1/3 of life or more in prison .

Perhaps this is a sign that the mob guys that have been more news worthy are getting further pushed into the spotlight to detract from the other work going on in the families? I’m just spitballing
