fair enough, i do not follow burnstein or the philly family closely obviously. also i seem to be the only one on here that doesnt find it totally bizarre then that a sitting BOSS of an italian american crime family has a podcast. many comment on here about the declining state of the american mafia and this scenario with merlino could just be symptomatic of this. some have stated merlino is getting a monthly envelope still for being boss, likely true. what does he make hosting a podcast? i know nothing of them, never listened to or tuned in to one in my life so i do not know the details as to why they could be lucrative, i can only assume advertising and a sign up fee. if they are so lucrative and possibly more so than actually being a BOSS that speaks volumes to the situation and state of the philly family.
