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 everyone. 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 for ever done

living in the hospital was never fun some people were cool but not everyone welcome everybody it's time for another Hollywood Godfather podcast. And we're changing

our format a little, because I got so impressed with a kid who contacted me. And the subject matter

really triggered my curiosity because his show, which is a huge success, is called Dead Talk.

And how he got involved with me, in touch with me rather, was, you know, because of our podcast.

But looking into why he created this show, I think it's interesting to give a little

background on his father, who David is a junior, his father's deaf, deaf, his father's

David F. Perugio. And I didn't mean to laugh because what I'm about to say is David F. Perugio.

And I didn't mean to laugh because what I'm about to say is very serious.

As a young boy, David lost his father as the first plane hit the World Trade Center in 9-11.

And he was confused, obviously. And it's ironic because he was a young man.

I was 12 when I was confronted with death.

And until we got into the show together, he didn't realize how much involvement I've had with death at an age and continuing.

But his father was on the 150th floor of Tower 1 when the first plane hit the Tower of World Trade Center.

And he was a bond trader at Cantor Fitzgerald, which was one of the biggest firms.

And he was there already 16 years, or six years rather.

And the thing, there's a lot of parallels because his father came from Stanton

Island, which my grandmother and grandfather did.
