In this episode of our podcast, we sit down with Frank 'Steel' Pontillo, a former member of the Colombo crime family. Frank shares with us how he got his nickname and delves into the fascinating world of earning a moniker in the mob. He also opens up about his upbringing and how he got involved in organized crime, including the process of getting made.
But that's not all - Frank also provides us with a gripping account of the infamous Colombo family war that rocked New York City in the early 90s, leading up to the arrest of several high-ranking members of the organization. If you're interested in the inner workings of the mob and the personal experiences of those involved, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
