Chapter 1: What happened during Gene's Vlad TV appearance?
When I went on the Vlad TV show, they edited it. Listen, guys, it was a hundred times worse than what he put out. The guy put work in, he definitely was a gangster. But I have DMs from all Philadelphia people. They give me so much dirt on this guy. They did a whole show on me.
I'm waiting for him to do Rat of the Month on me.
I'm gonna tell you why he won't.
I was gonna say, so when are you and Merlino sitting down? Well, that's... I've heard this before. Yeah, it was... Well, let's talk first about the Merlino thing. Absolutely. Everybody waits for that when I sit down. Before you mentioned it when you walked in, Wade had told me that he said, well, you know, there's an issue with Merlino right now and him. And I was like, well, they're in there.
It's big. It's huge. We're beefing so big right now on the internet. So bad. So what started that? You didn't hear what he said. He did say a funny thing. I'm not going to lie. He goes, I want to make sure everybody's safe for the storm. Everybody, except for Borrello. He goes, except for Borrello. Out of everybody this guy beeps with, I'm on his mind 24-7. He's talking about everybody.
And all of a sudden he'll go, except for Borrello. He'll go, because he just always got something with me because I bring up things that he don't like.
What was, was there a catalyst this time? Because at one point there was an issue and then it started dying down and then it, what, it shook back up?
Because he can't, because he don't, because what happened was we were going at each other. We were going at each other and what had happened was that he said something of the nature that, what did he say about me? Oh, he talked about me saving my cousin Anthony.
You what?

Chapter 2: Why is Gene beefing with Joey Merlino?
Oh, they did a whole thing. I'm waiting for him to do Rat of the Month on me.
Honestly, because let's face it. He won't. I'm going to tell you why he won't. Because he was hanging out with you and he will deny it. And he was sitting with you. And he probably knew that you were no good the whole time and he was sitting with you. So that's why he denies it. Because there's a lot of guys I know that reached out to me. So he was hanging out with them.
He knew they were cooperatives and he still was hanging out with them. So he won't bring you up. That's why.
That's disappointing. Because here's the thing. Like he can get like I've got stuff on me just being brutal about it.
Matthew, I'm friends with the guy that sat with him every day for three years and he says he don't know who the guy is and doesn't know who he is. He's on his wiretaps for three. John Rubio had this guy on wiretaps for three years. And Cleems, I don't even know who he is. I never spoke to him. I never spoke to him. Right?
There's thousands and thousands of hours of recordings of them hanging out in Florida together, partying.
Well, I was going to say, and just in general and being on YouTube in general, like it's just you're supposed to deny everything. And, you know, his groupies are like, you know, oh, well, he never admits that there is the mob. He never says. I'll let you finish and I'll go. You know what I'm saying? Like you're splitting hairs here. He's on YouTube.
I'm going to break this down for all your fans. All right. Yeah. So what I'm going to break down for you is this. So when you're in that mob life, right? I broke the code. Everyone knows that. I cooperated. Any guy cooperating on the internet. You're sitting on YouTube. You're a cooperator. Even if you didn't make a deal with the government. Okay. Even if you didn't do a profit or anything.
Mafia rules. He's 60-something years old. He goes back to the old school days, pretty much. He came up in the heyday. I'll give him his credit. The guy put work in. He definitely was a gangster. But with the mob life, let me break this down to you, Matt. You could do one wrong thing. Look, one little thing. Everything you worked for is gone.

Chapter 3: What are the consequences of breaking mafia rules?
It's insane. That's a lot.
Because we want it to look like... The guy I'm working with was in like real films. Right.
He wants to make it look like a real Hollywood... Modern Day Sopranos.
He wants it to be a Modern Day Sopranos. And everyone sees that vision. Everyone keeps saying, yes, yes, yes. But the money, it's so expensive to do this. We need the production company that we're working with now... can give it to us in his sleep.
