Manage episode 445349575 series 2822688
The Sopranos considered by many the greatest show in television history, made the New Jersey mafia water cooler talk across the country from 1999-2007.
While based on fictional characters, there was an actual mafia family neck deep in criminal activities across the Hudson River from their La Cosa Nostra contemporaries in New York.
In New Jersey, starting in the 1960’s, the DeCavalcante family ran the show and are considered the inspiration for many of The Sopranos characters and storylines that fans are familiar with today. This season on Family Business, we will look at the rise and fall of the DeCavalcante family. Sometimes truth is even more colorful than fiction.
THE PODCAST FRANCHISE FAMILY BUSINESS, is an 8 episode investigative audio documentary focused on the most notorious mafia crime families and their impact and relationship with Hollywood.
Each season we will take on another family, another city, and another set of nefarious, deadly and sometimes even comical, characters and their stories.
We begin Season One with the DeCavalcante crime family based in Northern New Jersey.
The DeCavalcante crime family is an Italian American crime family that operates in Northern New Jersey, particularly in Elizabeth, Newark and the surrounding areas in North Jersey and it operates on the opposite side of the Hudson, from the Five Families of New York, but it maintains strong relations with many of them, as well as with the Philadelphia Crime Family and the Patriarca Crime Family of New England.
Its illicit activities include bookmaking, cement, and construction violations, bootlegging, corruption, drug trafficking, extortion, fencing, fraud, hijacking, illegal gambling, loan-sharking, money laundering, murder, pier thefts, pornography, prostitution, racketeering, and waste management violations. Interviews with informants, gangsters, defense lawyers, cops, family members, and journalists weave a true-crime tale/
