About this episode
On today's episode of the show I spoke to Xavier Eboli, the son of longtime Genovese mobster and eventual acting boss Thomas "Tommy Ryan" Eboli. This interview was one of the most interesting and complex I've ever done. We talked about Xavier's childhood growing up as the son of a Mafia heavyweight. In addition he talked about knowing Lucky Luciano, his run in's with Vincent "Chin" Gigante and the Genovese Crime Family and the eventual murder of his father. This is for the history lovers. A fascinating and profound interview.
