The Real Griselda: Part Eight
Фильм және анимация
Michael Corleone Blanco, youngest son of Cocaine Godmother Griselda Blanco, and his cousin, Junior Blanco, tell director Billy Corben about growing up visiting Griselda in prisons, how a phone sex scandal involving hitman Jorge “Rivi” Ayala and secretaries at the prosecutor’s office saved Griselda from Florida’s electric chair, and what happened on the day she was murdered in Medellín, Colombia.
In ‘The Real Griselda,’ Michael Corleone Blanco and Cocaine Cowboys director Billy Corben react to the new Netflix series starring Sofía Vergara and tell the real stories behind the myths.

I've been in it since 2008. As a kid during the 80s i followed up on news reports of both NY mafia, and the Miami drug wars plus Pablo Escobar story. I remember the Mickey Munday arrest and the footage of it, it was shown here on Belgian tv. Griselda was the only one to go unnoticed here.

As someone from a family of smugglers and who was part of the game, I can sympathize with Michael. Seeing your family go to prison, it's like having your heart locked up as well. It's 1 of many reasons I left the game. Go live your life Michael and be a father to your kids. Nothing is more heartbreaking than see your kid yell at you daddy don't go. 😢😢

This is so good. I can’t believe this was someone’s real life. So true does art mimic life or does life mimic art.
I am so thankful they were comfortable enough to be vulnerable and tell the real story... Nowadays you need to tell your story or someone else will tell it for you in a fictional manner... God bless them all.
I get goosebumps every time I hear the intro of Michael Corleone saying its his time to tell the story. This podcast is so good

@@cwjm I'm speaking specifically on Cocaine Cowboys 2 - which focused exclusively on Griselda's story. That particular documentary was a hit for Netflix. If you wiki the title - this is what you'll see as the first sentence: "Set in 1992, the film is largely narrated by Cosby"
I’ve loved Griselda since a kid cause seeing a women take over I loved it but hearing about her through her child’s words made me love the softer side of her and that’s what I aspire in life to be that type of important to ppl ❤❤❤❤
All my love goes to ❤Michael❤ for changing the course of his life and familie‘s destiny. Much respect!!

Put it in perspective though, he was 7 when she was locked up. How much did he know or understand at 7 of her crimes? His relationship is based on his visits, phone calls and mail with her. He would have seen the best of her during those times. She would have given him her best . He would have had nothing but love for his mother who had nothing but love for him.

I remember Mrs. Blanco had a Niece named Susana back in 1993-1994, I'd met her at Club Metro in Rubidoux CA and she always described her Auntie Griselda but she never mentioned her name. Susana had a Drop Top Black BMW back then and she described her Auntie to the T but never mentioned Miss Blanco.. Susana lives in the Orange county area at that time.

I can listen every day and my heart breaks for Michael as a mom, but he seems to be taking control. My mother was a addict in the 80’s and 90’s and it bothers me the somewhat pride he has.
Thank you for sharing your story about your family. I could see it wasnt easy to share ❤
I’ve really enjoyed these episodes. Thank you!

The homie Mike love hiphop. I can tell he has respect and love for the artist that speaks real ,Salute

I look forward to these! So much better than any series. Michael is so open & real about his feelings. 💯
This was such an interesting interview, the whole series was eye-opening. Hearing it from the horse's mouth never goes out of touch. Very good questions, and seeing the vulnerability and matter-of-fact take from Mike was amazing
This has been an awesome series! Michael seems like a good dude.

One of my favorite parts of this was Michael acknowledging that as a man he needed to break the cycle and choose his family and what’s best for the next gen. Takes a lot to do that and know and accept the fact that you are leaving your old life behind along with loved ones.

Every episode has been epic. 🙏🏾❤️
Billy let Michael turn him against Charles and his story!! Charles was a significant part of his mom's life!! (I do think that story needs a reloaded version with more on the JFK thing and less of the gold tooth guy) But anyway, Michael wants to erase what his mom did. Rivi is an lowlife and k!ller but he was there!! His mom was doing crack. He can try and hide it but she was a crackhead!! You can only imagine the things she wanted done!!!
OH SHIT. Keep em coming 🔥
Being from Medellin and having to deal with the consequences from the actions of family members involved in that industry is no joke. I am very grateful that I was able to leave when I could. I feel for Micheal, that life scars you and then you gotta be the one to brake the cycle. Parcero que dios este contigo.
Micheal Corleone Blanco said Charles Cosby was an opportunist but in my opinion he worked for his opportunity. Going out of your way to write a plug in prison...he deserved a shot. The odds of getting a plug by writing them is low and he won the lottery by putting in the effort. In my opinion, he deserved the opportunity more than Micheal because you can't help who your parents are. With Micheal it's nepotism.
