Jimmy "Bighead" Tsui is a Chinese Mob Boss who was affiliated with the Tung On in New York City and the Sun Yee On triad in Hong Kong. In 1985, he was arrested in New York City and charged with robbery and homicide before the case was dismissed. After being shot five times in his car in 1992, he ended his involvement in mob life. His network dissolved, and, during the 2010s, he became involved with "Chinatown Gang Stories" documentary project to preserve the history of Manhattan's triads from the 1960s to 1990s.

@@gabrielmartinez-ls5cp What duty does he (JRE) have to anyone? He's just a muscle monkey asking questions. Should we all stop asking questions? Do you have all the answers? Should you stop asking questions? Should I? I don't think anyone has the answers, but if you stop asking questions, then none of us can purpose interviews. Feels like you are stamping out growth brother.
Mark’s Podcast is low key one of the top 5 podcasts that have been blowing up because of the quality of the podcast the amazing guests and finally Mark himself makes it perfect (edit) thank you it feels cool & good to see and know you actually read, like every comment!

6:55 into the interview. I appreciate how you let him tell his story WITHOUT interrupting and only stepping in to ask relevant questions that give us, the viewers, more insight. Great work, so far.
Love your channel man, great way to pass time at work and learning.
Never heard of this podcast before. But now I have and a new follower!! Awesome interview Camp Gagnon!!!!

Great interview…Big Head is a legend
Great interview...very interesting about the inside triad experience. Thank you for sharing!!!
How does this podcast not have millions of subs ? This is so good .
This was a great interview. Big head's story is 🔥
Love listening to og big head great stories
Best podcast on the internet mark is my favorite person on flagrant and this podcast is just a super amazing addition to his character online. I love his hot takes on flagrant and this podcast gives a much more in depth view of just how much depth mark has as a person it's very interesting to hear the convos he has with people on here. I love to listen to each interview you make not matter my interest in the topic because you have a way of making each quest tell an interesting perspective to whatever it is they are on for. Cant wait to see what else you do
Love this podcast!! Keep it up brotha
Awesome episode!
One of the best episodes of a podcast ive watched. Great insight from a legit OG of New york chinatown
Amazing podcast. i love Jimmy, such amazing stories of the olden days in NY and HK. Ancient memories and similar to the stories my parents have told me as a kid
Really great interview! Bighead covered lots of ground and really broke it down in and outside of prison! Bighead is 1 cool dude!
You're great! Keep grinding and don't focus on how many viewers you have. Focus on the content, if its good. People will show up and stay.
Bro blasted on the scene with dope ass guests. Been following these mob/gang content for a while. Magically just appears on this channel. Not a coincidence man. Your doing a great job brotha Kudos, love and respect 🫡

Haha for sure. I love his understated style too. If you didn’t “know” what you’re looking at, you would think this is just some regular dude, he doesn’t stand out in any way
I have some insight detail inform into Jimmy's story. Good to see you doing well after all these years Jimmy.
5 minutes in and I'm hooked already.
Every week this pod moves up the list. You're killing it mark!
“Tell me a funny story. “ “I got shot.”
I just googled that shooting, it was 1982 3 murdered one a 8 year old boy and 8 critically injured that's crazy
best episode ever
I could listen to Jimmy talk about his exploits with “Quiff” all day!
I really like BigHead’s style and vibe. You can tell why he was successful at being a gangster. He’s smart and personable, funny, but you know he means business
You are getting better guests.Not that the other ones were bad, but people love mafia action.For some reason, it's just the way we are.I know that's how I am. Keep on keeping on you are doing great.God bless you❤❤

I’m the same way with mafia stuff.
Used to hear endless stories of these gangs growing up in chinatown
I hope mark keeps this poscast going and stays true to himself, there will be ups and downs but as long as he keeps it real it will do great, i used to like flagerant but lately shultz is just too much and too cringe for me. Keep em coming Mark! Great ep!
Mark… how dare you keep having these great guests.
Great interviewer.
God damn Mark for a second I thought the whole pod was gonna be in intro form😂
Boy you got a good podcast
Liked and subscribed shared
Awesome interview… I stopped watching flagrant a year or so ago… mark seems more authentic and is way more naturally funny than Schulz. I guess I’ll have to watch some past episodes!

The Golden Star Bar machine gun incident was Dec. 1982 around 2am.
Guests blinks: 😣 Host: wowwww
lighting the cigarette with the pistol lighter was awesome wtf lol
Am I the only one losing my mind trying to figure out where Bighead’s favorite dim sum restaurants are? 😭 Edit: Found the one he’s talking about! The Tong On building is on 27 Division Street, and the restaurant on the first floor is called Dim Sum Palace.
Damn, I gotta watch this one. Because I can’t understand him and don’t want to miss anything.
looking sharp big head
Big Head is one of those guys! A couple of those San Andreas missions loosely based on some stuff they did. Boys used to get to it fr!!!
Hope to see Kenny on here next!
Bighead is cool af. a real OG

Great sho w buddy.
35:59 im outsideeeee 😂😂😂😂
This guy really asked "do ua think i could be a gangster?" Lol wow.
Get other responses besides wow and that's wild and that's crazy. Why does every sentence start with wooooow
He made them an offer they couldn’t understand…
This guy's life is a movie.
Big head is the real life Chan Ho Nam. Iykyk. Young n dangerous
First of all check out Ren. Im not wasting your time brother. Second of all I'm from the future and this episode is awsome. Im going to rewatch it. Five stars.
This wuz crazy
Seem like it is easy to retired or quit from the triad than the mafia
🙏🙏🙏🔥🔥🔥
Very interesting watch. Out of all the Asian gangs in America i think Chinese gangs/organizations are the most organized.
Man this guy is hella different 😂
