Frank MoranoGUEST
And if Bruce doesn't do the right thing, if things aren't markedly better on taxes, on education, on crime, on transportation, throw them out and
Arthur AidalaHOST
bring back somebody else, you know? Frank, do you know the name of the moving company in Godfather 1 when the Corleones are moving out west?
Frank MoranoGUEST
Uh, let's see.
Frank MoranoGUEST
Uh, Godfather one, when they're moving out towards the end, when they're moving out to Nevada.

ChristianHOST
That's who he is.
ChristianHOST
You got Sonny Fredo and Michael who are the real Corleones.
ChristianHOST
And then you got Tom Hagen who's like adopted into the family.
ChristianHOST
Only Tom Hagen was a good consigliere.
ChristianHOST
And maybe Brian Cashman, who was also a good consigliere at one time, but not a wartime one.
ChristianHOST
Because when you are 17 years without a world championship, it's wartime.
ChristianHOST
So you got the Corleones and Tom Hagen, and now you have the Steinbrenners and Brian Cashman.
ChristianHOST
It's basically the same thing.
Kathy BooneHOST
What he seems to value most of late is the humiliation of his enemies and, even more, the accumulation of vast wealth.
Kathy BooneHOST
Since the second inauguration, the Trumps and their satraps have operated with all the commercial cunning of the Corleone family.
Kathy BooneHOST
The White House is their front, their Janko Pura olive oil company.
Kathy BooneHOST
The Attorney General, Todd Blanche, is an obedient Tom Hagen.
Chris PlanteGUEST
Everything's a gangster shakedown, honestly.
Chris PlanteGUEST
It's like, uh, the Corleone family had nothing on today's Democratic gangster party.
Ray StevensHOST
[laughs] And they couldn't do business with today's Democrat party, could they?
Chris PlanteGUEST
[laughs] I, you know, I, I, I get it.
Paul McGannHOST
But it's a distinctly small-time criminal enterprise.
Paul McGannHOST
Not exactly the Corleone family.
Edward PaulinoGUEST
He was a ruffian, you know.
Edward PaulinoGUEST
Teenage, early adult years, he ran a racket, right? He had a little gang.
Gene KillianHOST
There's a gangster in the movie named Virgil Salazzo, Virgil the Turk Salazzo, played by the late great actor and director Al Lettieri.
Gene KillianHOST
And Salazzo has asked for a meeting with the Corleone crime family, Vito Corleone and his sons, who run the Corleone, the fictional Corleone crime family in the novel and in the movie.
Gene KillianHOST
And the reason he wants this meeting is because Salazzo says, is trying to build an illegal drug empire and he needs financing and he needs protection from politicians and judges.
Gene KillianHOST
And so he asks for a meeting with Vito Corleone, played of course by Marlon Brando, to discuss a potential partnership.
Gene KillianHOST
And at the meeting, he lays it out.
Gene KillianHOST
What he needs is $1 million in financing, and he needs protection from the lawyers and judges that are on the Corleone family payroll.
Gene KillianHOST
And Vito Corleone hears him out and then says, you know, you're a serious man.
Gene KillianHOST
I understand that.
Greg KellyHOST
Hello.
Greg KellyHOST
Hey, that's, by the way, the Corleones.
Greg KellyHOST
They were in the olive oil business, right? But that was, they weren't, well, they had other interests as well.
Greg KellyHOST
When you were in...
PattiHOST
To me, it came off very mafia-like.
PattiHOST
Like, you know, I'm a Corleone now, or I'm in with the Corleones.
PattiHOST
I'm
TashHOST
a Bloods.
5 MINS LATER
TashHOST
Yeah.
TashHOST
Portia says, I take it you were here to congratulate us on my daughter's marriage into one of the most esteemed and respected families of the Tom.
TashHOST
The Corleones.
TashHOST
Regrettably, no.
HollyHOST
You've got judges, journalists, police, ordinary people, people including Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino, who were murdered in 1992 after leading major investigations into the Sicilian Mafia.
HollyHOST
That gives you a much more meaningful understanding than simply doing a Godfather tour and pretending you're joining the Corleone family.
HollyHOST
But also you've got the rest of Sicily.
HollyHOST
You've got the beaches and the food and the wine.
speaker_1HOST
Exactly.
speaker_1HOST
The Corleones are taking massive hits both physically and financially.
speaker_1HOST
They are bleeding capital.
speaker_0HOST
So they have to tighten the belt.
speaker_1HOST
Enter Emilio Barzini.
speaker_0HOST
The ultimate puppet master.
speaker_1HOST
Barzini is the strategic foil to the Corleones.
speaker_1HOST
He sees the entire chessboard perfectly.
