This episode of Melissa Gorga on display is brought to you by Huggie's special delivery diapers.
We're explaining that my mother's widowed twice and
No, she did not just say that. All right guys, so we're down at my Jersey Shorehouse and we have a family filled two
parter episode for you. It's a two-parter because there is absolutely no way we can fit
it all into one with my crazy family.
I have my mother Donna Marco and my two sisters Lisa Simpson and Kim Perrella.
And we also have Joe Gorga in here just to throw in a little man's point of view into this
episode.
So first we have Miss Kim Perrella who is the oldest sister.
We've always got to throw in the oldest sister. Who is the oldest sister, the most wise sister,
she is the Leo.
True, yes, true.
Sometimes she's wise, sometimes she's not Kim.
Say hello to everyone.
Hello everyone.
It's Kimmy, everyone we call her Kimmy.
And then I have the middle sister,
who is my mom's favorite now.
I would say I will choose.
Never really the favorite.
Probably just when she was born because she was my father's favorite.
And so was I my father's favorite and my grandmother's favorite and my mom's favorite.
When I was young, but now my middle sister is my mom's favorite.
So Lisa Simpson everyone.
Hello everybody, it's, I'm the favorite. And back by popular demand, because you guys go crazy
and everywhere I go, they just want Donna Marco.
So here she is in the flesh.
Mommy say hi to everyone.
Here I am the favorite mother.
There she is.
And the reason Lisa's my favorite is she calls me every day.
Hold on, hold on, she just admitted that I'm her favorite.
You do realize we're sitting right here.
Yeah, that's the...
So, so, do you have a favorite child mother?
Because when you have a favorite...
Every mother has...
...at different times.
I don't know if you call it a favorite.
Do you have a favorite?
I mean, people like to say that... Do you have a favorite? I do not have a favorite. Do you have a favorite? I mean, people like to say that do you have
a favorite? You have a liar.
All my children equally.
What we all love all our kids equally, but I think there's different time.
A meal is everyone's favorite, so she's full now.
Yeah, so Amelia is my niece just had a little baby daughter. I know you guys all see her
on Instagram. I was just kissing her this morning. So hold on, I need to give you the setting. We are down. I know it's about
to be fourth of July. And so we are down at my beach house right now. We're at my
sure house at the Jersey Shore down at Tom's River. So I figured what better than to have
my fam come on. And I know like it's good. We need some like family talk on this podcast sometimes, right?
It's great.
It's family talk is huge.
So right now I just want to give you the setting.
We're sitting in my kitchen, I would say.
Is this the kitchen?
Yes.
At my for-house.
Yeah, the kitchen.
We have the beautiful backdrop of the water
and the boats going by behind us.
And as soon as we're done with this podcast,
we will all be on those lounge chairs laying out
at Missy G's making margaritas. So I wanted to bring my family on today just so
that you guys could see how much fun they are. Joe, oh, by the way, Joe Gorgas coming
too, he just went to get us all bagels. So he will be here in like 10 minutes and he's
also going to join in on this combo. So let's just talk for a minute about dating with Donna.
Yeah.
We had...
Everybody's favorite topic.
It's everybody's favorite topic.
And my sister, Lisa, likes to show on her Instagram,
which by the way, you can just start following us
all on Instagram because I think we're a very entertaining
family.
Well, my dating with Donna episodes,
every time I post them, my inboxes are so flooded
with Donna Marko, Donna Marko.
And by the way, you're always all one word.
You're Donna Marko.
It's never been Donna, your mom, it's Donna Marko.
Why is that?
Some people just like, I feel like everyone calls me
Melissa Gorga too.
Yes, I agree with that too.
Yes.
They all call me Donna Marko.
But I put her on my Instagram and we do a dating with Donna
episode and my inboxes are flooded.
They're like, and they say the same thing.
We want more Donna.
We want more Donna.
Like you have a fan base out there that wants you.
Yes, because Joe Gorgatomi had his show last night.
He got so many DMs about me.
Yeah.
She doesn't like the attention at all. She doesn't like the attention at all.
Very shy. I mean, she's obviously not shy. She is single. Well, I'll say she's widowed.
And oh, Joe Gorka just walked in the room, everyone. Oh, it's up, Joe Gorka. Say hi, Joe.
What's up, guys? It's the funny man. Hey, what's going on? Look at how beautiful his family is.
I just walked in and what you're carrying in your hand.
I got bagels.
I got almond, honey.
But it's just cream cheese, strawberry cream cheese, little bit everything.
Missy G's favorite, right?
Maybe sure.
That I bought him for an 80s party, but you never ended up wearing it because we're just like Bravo people
So wasn't making any sense for you to
Oh, I'm French sure what are you guys talking about?
Well, we're just starting with dating with Donna
Everyone's favorite topic, dating with Donna. Everyone's favorite topic. We're explaining that my mother's widowed twice and
No, she did not just And... A killin' more like... Oh my god! She kills her!
No she did not just say that.
Yes she did.
They can't handle you, Mottie.
I know, no why.
A killin' takes me a while, but they go down.
Oh.
So I don't know if you guys have seen it.
Did she just say it takes them a while, but they go down.
No no, we want 21 for another.
Oh.
Who's the next victim?
It's the one where they are, the harder they are.
15.
So here's the thing.
My mother is 73, like going on.
She's like a good, like, she would come off like 60.
I would say 68.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
I would say like a 60.
I don't want to be 60.
Yeah, you're like a 63
10 years
I'll be honest. I've seen I've seen a lot of 57 year olds that she they can't hold a candle towards
Well, she's gorgeous. We got you know, we got good genius by your personality and your energy like she'll come over and she'll clean Everything and pick up the the the chairs and move ten of them big chairs. I'm like look at her She's amazing my wife like I can and pick up the chairs and move ten of them big chairs.
I'm like, look at her. She's amazing. My wife's like, I can't pick up the chair.
I'm like Melissa, your mother just picked up. Sorry.
She's always been like that. We would get off the school bus when we'd get like elementary school even.
And she'd be in the front yard mowing the lawn in a bikini.
True story. And all the kids would be like, wow, your mom's hot.
We're like, oh my god, mom, put a cover up on.
Do you remember that?
I know, I'm the hot mom.
Look at that.
No.
No.
Because the reason Joey P married Kimmy,
she could tell you, he came to the house, and that was it.
He goes, I want her a wife that's going to look like her
when she's older.
I think she's saying that.
Well, don't forget, he was,
mommy was 37 when my husband knocked on the door for me.
And when he knocked on the door and she answered,
he goes, is your sister home?
That's it.
He's been the favorite ever since.
We have a whole three when you had Kimmy.
18. 18? Okay, so that's wow so you had her young so that's why we look at Antonia's face. She just said did you say 18? Antonia's just figuring it out. Listen to me. Do what we say not what we do
We got married at 28 no 30 30 25 26. What do you want to go around?
Do you want to go around?
Let's have babies and have to grow to family and enjoy ourselves.
What are you going to do?
You could do the same thing with a baby that you don't.
No, I'm not.
And without a baby, yes you can.
Try me.
You know, we all help.
Yeah, but anyway, to just give you a little wrap up
on dating with Donna. So she is now on dating apps. I mean, this is a 73 year old that you know
She's never met a man on an app in her life, but she is on an app. I don't know that I want to say which one because I feel like you're gonna
Get a lot of what we just switched. Oh, she went off of one and we started a new one. I put it pick one and I went off. Really?
I mean, do you consider yourself fussy? Yeah.
Picky? Would you call yourself Picky? We would like to know.
Consider them old. Okay, so you need like a 68.
You need like a young, you need someone who has like young energy the way you do.
Like we went out the other night after Joe's comedy show and my
mother danced probably the hardest one in the room more than everyone else
and I think those two in yes we did you are the life of the party yes
we're gonna get back to the comedy show after this because what we talked about in
the show yeah oh my god that was. Because I want to touch that.
We've talked about this before in the podcast.
But now, mom is here, you're here.
Kimi was the only in Lisa.
The two traders were mom.
And Lisa, Kimi was like, no, no, no.
I dropped out.
We're going to take the five moms to now.
We're not there.
All right, this is going back.
I don't know if you listened to the first episode
on the first podcast.
And we did Joe and I discussed how I once made him
take a lie detector test because, you know,
I could have he was having sex with a shovel.
You know, I think, you know, when you're done with this episode,
if you haven't listened to episode one,
listeners definitely jump back and listen to that because
you'll understand that one time I made Joe take a lie detector
test because I did hear him.
I don't give you.
I heard you're going to come back to that.
His phone but dialed me, but anyway, moving back to dating with
Donna.
Right.
No, not my brain mom dating with Donna.
Okay, just give us a little something
on what you're looking for in a man.
Cause you never know.
I have all types of ages listening to this podcast.
I'm like, yo, wants to work a towel,
and not old fashioned.
I don't want to go out and dance.
Cause I like to, you know,
and gamble.
Oh, I love they say.
I like it. I love they dance. I'm not looking at them.
And you like to go out to dinner five nights a week.
Yes, I like to go out to dinner five nights a week.
I was like a movie.
I don't bowl because I have bad aim.
Okay.
Use a bowl on a lead day so go do me a room.
Well, that's just gonna have to have.
Bad aim.
But yeah, I can't even aim a bowl.
Yeah. Aim aim a ball.
Aim a bowling ball.
Okay.
This is why I make fun of everything you say.
I know.
Let me just say one thing.
And you don't like a tall man either.
No.
I don't like the way that we're going.
She said, oh my god.
I think that tall men are lanky.
They don't offer. They're awkward.
Like I'm a tie and I like a tie and tie's men.
Like Joey Jane.
You like this little guy right here?
Little guy, I was a little guy. You can't handle this lady.
I'm a little guy, so cute.
You said cute, but I'm a kid.
You're a pocket.
I'm a man. So cute, but you're write your pocket. Yeah, I'm gonna have a man's shirt. So cute, we'll put you on our pocket.
I never made one of 12.
You know what my favorite line was when I met girls.
I was gonna go up to them and grab them.
I'm like, you know, like hug them.
And, you know, because I'm a little shorter or whatever.
Oh, yeah.
And I would hug them, pull them tight.
And I'd be like, look, look, we fit.
And they were both so cute.
And your head was like nestled right in between their boobs.
You're like, we fit perfectly.
Yeah.
Can you tell your fifth?
Oh, no.
He tried to tell me he was going to paint me on his wall.
Cheesy.
Yeah.

than you could reach.

That was your job. I had a car. My mother said she was trying to find our husband
because a lot of times my dad would say
he was going to go get milk.
And then he would come home and be right back.
And he wouldn't come home for like a day and a half to two days.
And you know what I'm going to say?
Sometimes.
Sometimes now.
Sometimes a month.
Very stressful.
You know, it wasn't funny that.
Yeah.
I want to say something because you have done
with these three girls, and I mean that, right? To your face, you have done with these three girls and I mean that right to your face
You have done the most amazing job because what the stories I've heard growing up, right?
You jump at a car and you take your little girls because they were young and she would go try to find your husband
He was in some girls apartment, right? Your climbing
Stere cases and right, but you know because a lot of people make excuses today
cases. Right, but you know, because a lot of people make excuses today, says the way I grew up. Yeah, right? Yeah. The way I grew up is the way I am. And you know, and bullshit, because you guys
grew up a certain way and you guys are the most faithful. We were talking about this last night,
my mom at the church. Yeah, it's popular. You guys are out of my head. It's normal. You guys are the most faithful wives and great persons.
Let me rephrase that.
Great persons.
I can't talk right now.
I can't talk right now.
We're the most faithful wives and people out there,
really.
Oh, thank you, Joe.
Really, and I mean that.
So you've done a great job.
Everyone tells me that, Joe.
No, I was saying that.
And you think that she's the mother's object. And you think this goes on to another subject?
Do you think?
And I know, obviously, family is always
a big subject when it comes to all of us.
And Joe is very envious.
And he loves the way that our family is together all the time
that we support one another, that we, I mean, it's not just us.
We also have an extended family of like cousins.
Like, for instance, we're having a big cousins dinner tonight.
It's family has always been extremely,
extremely important to us and to the Marcos.
We were all Marcos before we were all of these other last names.
Yeah.
I love it.
People say that to me all the time.
Like, how many cousins do you have?
Why are you guys so close?
Like, you're always with your family.
You're always doing something with your cousins and your family.
It's never like one of us.
It's always like 12, 15 of us.
It really is like our cousins are siblings.
It's true, what she said.
It's beautiful.
And no one's jealous of anyone.
And everybody looks out for each other.
And I love that.
I mean, listen, you can have billions of dollars in the world.
You can have everything.
But if you don't have family, you have nothing.
You got nothing.
You have nothing.
I don't know.
But we've always been this way. way like I can't tell you the last
fight that I had with Kim can you tell me I cannot tell you the last fight I
haven't molested what's the last fight time we argue but what it but we really
it's weird though because I can't remember I mean we'll argue over like if any
the most I would say is like if someone didn't call someone to come somewhere
or got left out of something
West, I don't even like get serious.
No, no, no, no, no.
Can anyone recall?
But we never have a drop down.
Can anyone recall the last argument anyone had with each other?
No, I can't really.
No, you can't.
No, I mean, so thank God, I feel like we're like, well, I can't do that.
It's weird, that it is weird.
I agree.
It's not that I know we're like, there's a lot of families.
I never pulled my sister not one time. My sister-in-law is none of them. Oh be like there's a lot of families. I never put my sister
not one time. I sister in law. Oh, so there's your answer. I'm so close to my sister in law.
I mean, don't want 40 years. Yeah. But there's your answer. Then so we didn't grow up watching
our mother fight with her sisters or her siblings. You know what I mean? We didn't see any
of that. Like there was turmoil with mommy and daddy, but not with mommy and her cousins.
Like, actually, you know what?
Aunt Lorraine and Georgina, like all of her cousins, we grew up with all the time.
We thought they were our aunts, not even cousins because we were with them all the time.
If you think about it.
Do any of you think it's because maybe, I mean, I do always say the parents.
So mommy and daddy, and really, I've only had a mommy
since I'm 16, but I feel like she doesn't allow that either.
So it's like if anyone gets into an argument
or if your husband ever had a tip with my husband,
oh no, she's not a walk-in within 30 minutes,
and even if she had to drive up North to where we live,
and say, absolutely not, this is not gonna happen.
This is not how we roll.
And you don't allow us to have those big fights.
No, she never did.
No, she never did.
And I think we weren't brought up that way.
We were brought up to be very close.
We brought up to be with our cousins every day.
And it's like, I feel like people sometimes
lose that sense of thing.
You know, I respect that,
because it was a time that many moons ago, right?
10 years ago, we were fighting a lot in the family right with Joe Judea some tree son
Well, I'm not the family. Yeah, it was a time my father did say to he sat me down
He goes listen if you get along with your sister and you guys don't want to talk you don't have to I go what what I
Looked at him. He said that you know why Joe because he has siblings. He doesn't speak to right
Cuz that's how we grew up right right right
Right, so it was a look that I said wow, I don't accept that
Yeah, and don't ever say that to your kids no never no, and I said that to him
I said I can't believe you just said that to me and I said I don't accept that and then he's like I forget when you said
I can't remember but then years later he changed his tune, You know, I believe that he just tried so hard
and it was just such a turnio.
It's exhausting.
It's exhausting, maybe where he was just like, listen,
just I wanna be with you and I wanna be with her.
So, but it was terrible,
because when a parent tells you that and makes it,
it's like, I'm okay.
You're crazy.
Yeah. Let's not talk.
Right.
Like the way you handle it, mom, is great. Cause you'll come over you like listen. This is stop it right here, and that's how it should be like a parent
Yeah, or a sibling should always like put your foot down and fix the situation right nothing's
Except you can have three girls and their husbands and their families. I mean it can get complicated
But we
I mean, it can get complicated. But we don't want to be sitting after.
We really have complications.
Oh, the fan always got along.
They're all best friends.
They're all best friends.
Everyone has their own family.
And now people do say that.
They say how they can see the relationship with the three
boys, right?
I mean, the only problem is that I didn't marry.
My husband seems not Joey because.
Can you imagine you both married Joey?
So we all married Italians. Lisa did marry an Italian her first time around.
So all of your children are Italian. But then her set this Lisa's on her second
marriage. And that's why she's so weird and obsessed with her husband.
They always say I am obsessed with my husband. The second marriage you get
like weirdly obsessed. No, it's true.
I'm just saying.
I will not take this.
You're not supposed to have this conversation in front
of your husband who's your first husband.
I just see, honest.
We have to be honest with the people.
The people know what I'm saying.
I think they have opposite.
They do say second time around.
I think the first one is the one you're obsessed with.
Well, that's for you.
That's why.
That was not my story.
See, I'm really upset that you said that. I'm not. Well, she was saying it. I was like, what is she saying? That was not my story
Well, she was saying it I was like what is it?
The second time absolutely do say oh, it's so much better the second time around
It's either they weren't happy or they were happy I'm gonna tell you what happened's what happened when when you've got this amazing marriage into this amazing guy, right?
Like you for example
pointing to himself I want my daughter to listen this
When you have this amazing guy in this amazing time your life is so great you forget and it you take it for granted
It's like having great parents and you spoil your children,
you spoil it, right? And you forget like what it is to have a bad parent or don't have nice things.
So you take it for granted. So then when you get divorced, right? And you're single and you're
out there and things are harder and you want to be with somebody, you want to cuddle with them at
night, you want things, then when you grab that next love, right? And you think like, in your brain, you make it.
Oh my God, I'm so happy.
I'm amazing.
I'm in my love bubble.
You might get it. Oh, oh all right, I got your point.
Your point is saying, like put your full effort.
Remember, like, how obsessed you are with your first marriage.
I'm making one other point, okay?
I just want to make the point that, like,
sometimes the first marriage is a little rush.
You get married too young.
You don't know yourself yet.
You're making baby shit.
We're learning something right now.
Joe thinks this is no way more.
I'm not gonna be this about me.
Stop taking this so personal.
I know, this is not about you.
I got mad at you.
You're so sensitive.
No, she did not.
She did not say that.
I'm gonna tell you in a nutshell.
Wait, you're so sensitive.
I'm gonna tell you because you're talking about
the second time around and how it's better.
This is the difference.
When you get married the second time, the difference is you know what you don't want, so you pick a partner
based on what you don't want. So when you get married the first time, you're like, he's
everything I want. You're like, you think that he's everything that you want. But then
if it goes bad, not in your situation, you're happily married, but in my situation, when
it goes bad, you now have a list of what you don't want. so as soon as you start dating someone and you get these oh no I've
had that before I don't want that don't want that don't and it's just easier to
pick the right person the second time because you have so many red flags
you're looking for yeah you're like I definitely want someone who wakes up in
the morning and doesn't lay on the couch during the day
right so exactly right you had a terrible husband he was out no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, he was in terrible, Joe.
He was a very nice man.
He was a nice guy, but not a great husband.
Everybody loves him.
He was a nice guy, a good person.
And they have husband.
I know him.
He's a great guy, but he was not a good husband.
Absolutely.
It's that of a man.
No one will ever deny that he was not a good husband. Absolutely. A man. It's that. I'm a man. No one will ever deny that he was not a good husband.
So that's right.
What happens now, you meet a guy that's a great guy,
and he was a great stepfather and man, right?
So what happens to a woman like Melissa?
Let's go back to that.
Oh my god.
Oh, you're never going to live this down, Melissa.
What happens to a woman like Melissa, right?
That's so has the most amazing of everything right and then and then I'm gone and then I'm gone
She is so screwed
Never find
What better do you want than him? What is one of those things? She's my mother. She says what better do you want than this guy?
She's never gonna do that.
Oh my God.
Always for the boy.
And Joe Trill.
Brad, what's up, man?
Yeah, it's our producer.
Oh my God, get out of here.
And tell him.
Joe is just being so sensitive over the fact
that I said sometimes it's better the second time around.
But I have certain valid points on age,
and like you're just want to have a baby
on what you know more what you want.
I just want to say that.
I feel like a lot of the listeners would agree with me
on that point.
Have you ever had one of those moments
when you realize it's time to find a new place?
At apartments.com, they call it an out-of-apartment experience.
Maybe you're lugging the trash down a six-floor walk-up and it bursts open right as you reach
the dumpster.

Do you think because we lost like a parent, right?
So young, maybe that's why we're also tight or we're tight before that because I was way too young to realize what were we
type before that.
I'm saying sometimes when you lose a parent, you realize like we were never not. You literally went from the crib into my bed and never left the bed until you
married Joe Gore. Fun fact, I've been scared of my own shadow. And I used to go and climb
well, Kimmy wouldn't let me in her bed, but when I was little before you were before you
were born, I would go and Kimmy is in the middle of the night and she would kick me out
of her bed. So I would sleep on. Do you remember this? I would sleep on her floor and the
comforter would go over the bed and I would be freezing and the little bit of blanket
that would hang onto the floor would roll up into like a little ball and try to sleep
in my sister's room with her at night. So maybe it's me. I was wanted to be close to
you. No, I made up for it. You don't forget them. Well, it's a live with me when she
was little and she lives in my finished basement.
And she would hear, I don't know,
a cricket could be anything.
And all of a sudden, me and Joe would be sound asleep.
The kids would be sleeping and you'd hear this.
And it was Melissa.
Run it up the steps into my bed with my husband.
She's like, oh my God, something's down there.
We're like, okay, lay down.
She was 17. Yeah. I have been scared of my own shadow since I'm a very young
bird. I feel like I'm growing out of it now in my 40s.
But I definitely have been scared to the point.
I've definitely been scared to the point of like my skin,
the hair on my arms would rise.
And I actually lived with my sister Kim for a little while
because we had moved to Boca Raton, Florida.
And that's when my father passed away.
I was living in Florida.
So I actually went to high school in Florida
in Boca Raton for a couple years.
That's when I, you know, I know I've told you guys this
before I got very bullied.
I was like, you know, a fish out of water there.
And it was very rough for me.
And then I wanted to move back.
So I moved back and my sisters are 10 and 12 years older
than me, sucks for you guys.
But I, I truly am the baby sister,
because they're 10 and 12 years older.
Just keep adding that.
And I know.
But my sisters were like established already
with like young little babies,
and I was still like 17,
because they got married at like 22.
And yeah, so when I was 17,
they're 27, and they had like little babies at home.
So I went and moved in with my sisters,
and I lived in my one sister's basement.
I worked three jobs.
I used to get up at six in the morning,
go till six at night, and then I would bartend all night long.
No, I wasn't a stripper.
I bartended.
And like that's what was so.
I changed and she met Joe Gorgon.
I knew they had that.
Oh my god.
Oh my god.
This guy loves himself.
Does anyone believe that you don't?
I love you, baby.
Oh, look at all these faces.
Look at all these faces.
Should get in deep around here.
This is why we always stick up for him.
I know.
It's hard not to. He's just like one of those guys who always tries to be sweet.
Don't try.
Well, he used to not be. I mean, you guys can contest to this.
When I first married him, when he was 29, 30,
he used to like break glasses when he got jealous.
Yeah.
You were crazy.
You were nuts.
Oh, no, you were definitely.
You were running hot back in the day.
You used to run hot.
Now you have age, every year, your concept.
Every year, you get more mature.
Like, how to handle things.
He couldn't control his anger as much.
Would you say that? Like, if Joe got jealous, like a typical 29-year-old guy
would get jealous, Joe would just keep looking.
He would lose his mind.
He would leave.
He would drive home.
Like if we'd be at our storehouse, he would break a glass.
We'd all be sitting there like, what just happened?
We always roll out the window.
He would throw his roll out the window and get in his car
and drive up North and say, I went home.
Now because I'm crazy.
It is because you are voting.
You were crazy.
You were little.
Oh my god.
They have one negative thing to say about Joe.
He was.
Oh, you don't wait.
He was poking on.
I was just going to say, remember, in Pennsylvania, when we went to Pennsylvania, you want,
I don't even remember.
It's like one of the first times we met.
Yes. Yes. You were as psychos 30 year olds. Yeah. We want to pencil Vania want I don't even remember one of the first times we met yes
Yes, you are a psycho 30 year old. Yeah, you're sick. I forget when you were met up
Yeah, yeah, it was easy Marin a young girl that was like wacko I was a girl graduating college. You were crazy, you were young. That's what you loved about me, my energy.
No, but it was dope.
It was fine.
I know, I can't look at it.
All right, well, I think it's fair to say that you definitely had.
There's probably a lot of listeners.
I don't know.
As your husband gets older, or is is it you can even see some people in their children like
you're younger, you were a little firecracker, everything pissed you off, everything made you mad.
I have to remember something. I had a family, I was building a company, I had a,
you didn't have a family, you were 29. I had a mold, I had a mold, everything.
Oh my god, here comes the caveman. No, no, no were 29. I had a mold you. I had a mold everything. Oh my god. Oh, here comes the K-Man.
He's coming.
No, no, no.
I had it like this.
I had a mold you.
I had a mold you, actually.
You told me to.
To I learned from what you wanted.
I mean, everybody gets that twisted.
No.
When you meet somebody, you change.
Don't get it.
Don't get it.
I changed from you.
No, babe.
You were just 29 and psycho.
Oh, shit.
You did get better with age.
You don't freak as much anymore.
Listen, if I freak on TV, right?
If I freak on TV, right?
With film industry, I'll show.
If I freak, right?
Why do I freak?
Do I have reasons to freak?
Yes, right?
Everybody has reasons to freak.
It's not a matter of a reason.
It's how you deal with what the reasons are.
You know, when I freeze, here's what happens right.
It's made for a reason.
You're much better.
No, but when I get back here.
If someone freaks or they go to a level, right,
let's just say, it's a build up.
It's not, unless you're crazy, you do it one time.
Yeah.
I've taken for a month straight through the whole thing.
That's the problem.
You do do that. You do it like that.
You know that.
That was my biggest issue.
You used to be like a volcano.
Right.
You would hold it and hold it in the one day,
you would just literally explode.
Right.
And that was, I learned not to do that.
Right.
I agree with that.
Let's talk about the tenant you freaked on.
How about that?
Yeah.
Oh, Joe.
I'm very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,
I saw you on TMZ. Yeah. Yeah. I saw you on TMZ.
Did you guys see Joe on TMZ?
You look like the old Joe.
You look like the old Joe Gargoyle.
Like your mains were popping out.
We're going to let you have a little platform here to explain your side of the story.
Guys, well tell me what you guys are doing.
First of all, there was a guy he had no credit.
He couldn't get an apartment and nowhere to live. He's like can you help me out?
I said listen, I'm gonna give you an opportunity. I'm giving you this beautiful apartment a beautiful building
I said here you go here's a shot when you and your girlfriend
You know because when you come into an apartment you got to fill out a credit check
I don't know you got to come up with 12 13,000 again toward apartment. I let him write it 13,000 again to an apartment
You got to come up with a month and a half security.
First months rent.
We take a pet deposit.
It's like 13,000 by the time you move in.
Can't even buy a house.
That's a lot.
I gave him, I gave him much opportunity
to help him in life.
Pay me for two, three months to stop paying me.
And he wasn't doing something.
And I knew it.
And I knew it.
It wasn't like just a stranger off the street. I helped
them. And then he then ignored my phone calls, started not answer my calls. And I'm busy.
I never see him. So, you know, listen guys, four years later, COVID hit. We filed before
COVID. It got stretched out through COVID. Now it's four years of rent. I got bills to pay.
I got more uses, but I got a-
No, that kids are free.
I have a family, what are you?
I'm not going to get aggr-
This is the first time I saw him.
Oh, that's why.
Yeah, and I would say, and I went up to my-
You don't answer your phone, you don't call me.
You don't give me the respect back of,
hey, listen, Joe, I don't have the money.
Here's $100 a week.
Attempt something, but his-
He was very-
He was very- He's trying to get away with not paying so maybe
So I should be getting in
Yeah, but you know what anyone I know that anyone I know that's all that
I'm honest with you you could see you hit your your end
Yeah, like you couldn't wait to just see it because you had in seeing him and you were
I he's not and you were like the volcano that I like that reminds me the 30 30 year old
In a map Like that reminds me 30 30 year old sorry job
He was like I paid you I paid you I don't know you any money And he goes you spent the money you
I spent the money I mean
That's the type of guy he is
Some people just don't deserve like
Right you trying to help them so we're not proud obviously you're not proud of like freaking like that
But you everyone gets to lose their shit sometimes
Is he out yet?
Did you get him out?
No, cuz we're still waiting for the show so I'm sort of come lock him out and it's been two months
So this is what we're dealing with so as a landlord that when you still has to have him living in that building
And that's
People don't understand I. I grind every day.
I don't just sit back and people give me money.
I got to work.
I get up at five a.m.
I've worked so hard to build that building.
You know, I put in sacrifices.
I went, every building I built, I almost go broke.
I really do.
It's a struggle.
I miss a lot of things.
And here you got somebody free lancin and stealing your money
He's not my son. He's not my daughter. I want to help them out my sister-in-law's my mother
I can't help some stranger out the street that's selling after whatever years right so and he's known to be a pretty bad guy
So and he's known and he's stealing packages in the building
On packages him and his girlfriend. Oh, yeah, we he's in his own packages. Him and his girlfriend.
Oh, yeah, we got him on camera.
We got all these things.
A cops don't do anything about it.
You know, so you get, sometimes you have to take it
in your own hands.
Oh, my goodness.
Which is a shame.
Well, I just want to give you a little opportunity
to talk about that since we were talking about
who you used to freak.
We definitely had to talk about your,
I'm a passionate guy and I love so hard.
And I loved you when I first met you so hard
When you love so hard is what happens, you know, all right well
We're gonna have a little girl talk now. I want it. I want to like hear a little bit from my sisters

hot size of New Jersey, right? Do people notice you guys when you're out or like hear your

you guys ever get people that like recognize you or know who you are from now?
All the time.
Yeah.
Well, we also have my sister Kim.
We have another celebrity in the family.
My sister Kim.
So it definitely comes from like my dad's side.
So my dad's side was very artistic.
Mother, nothing comes from your side
when it comes to singing or dancing, to be honest.
But yeah.
Dancing. I mean, you can shake your hips.
I don't think you're on the beat or the rhythm of it at all, but you're
definitely moving it and shaking it. My dad's side is actually like opera singers.
They all sing. They're my first cousin to our, my dad's brother's sons
have amazing voices.
Their daughters have amazing voices.
Some of them do acting.
And my sister Kim actually thinks she's the best singer
in the family.
She's not the best singer in the family.
But Kimmy likes to sing too.
And Kimmy does like off Broadway shows, right?
Kim, tell us a little about what you do.
So for the past eight or nine, nine years,
I've been doing off Broadway shows.
We started in New York City on 48th and 6th
and are 46th and 8th at the St. Luke's Theater.
And then we moved to literally like right down next
door to the wicked theatre. I can't remember the streets what have you. Then now we're
doing some Broadway shows, Off Broadway shows in Atlantic City so we've done gold and
not explained the shows to us. They're fun. They're super super fun.
Comities. They're literally all comedies and they're written by Anthony Wilkinson called my big gay Italian wedding
And then they proceed. There's four of them. My big gay Italian funeral
Then my big gay Italian midlife crisis and the newest one is my big gay Italian Christmas
I mean, what's better than a big gay Italian Christmas?
Anything
Yes, I mean for real so funny. I've been to a lot of the shows. They're actually really,
really great. Like, laugh out loud. If you're Italian and if you happen to be from the New York
or North Jersey or anywhere around here area, you really appreciate it even more. But it's,
if you're Italian, you just get all the little innuendos that are in the show and you laugh the whole
time. It is hysterical. So, Kimmy does do some acting with that and she does, you just get all the little innuendos that are in the show and you laugh the whole time. It is hysterical.
So Kimmy does do some acting with that.
And she does, you sing on the stage too, right?
Not these shows.
We were in another show that we did sing in.
This one is...
This is all just acting and super closed.
Okay.
This is acting and super funny, like comedy.

She when she was a teenager. She told her mom my mother 40 something 40-something years ago. Yeah, they were going to make you interesting right now.
Look at that.
Oh, my God!
You're just pissed that I'm the favorite.

She's not as talented as the rest of us.
Oh, my God!

And she is.
She's very talented at being the big butt girl. I have more talents than

Frankie named me Lilo. That's my nitty. Yeah, we call her Lilo and I gladly accept yes
We call her Lilo when she was young
She used to put Vaseline on the sides of her hair
Oh my god. And like her I know or it was Billy
I don't know and she would have Vaseline on the sides of her hair.
I shaved her hair in the backyard, remember?
Yes, and she changed her hair.
I love her hair.
Yeah, because they grew up in the 80s.
And her ear.
Paperclip, she would put a real paperclip
in her ear as an earring.
You guys, I was 17.
That was the style.
It was a punk rock error.
And I snuck her out to the prom.
School's your father wouldn't let her go. Yeah, because my boyfriend was a punk rocker. And I snuck her out to the proms, because your father wouldn't let her go.
Yeah, because my boyfriend was a punk rocker.
It was not the rocker.
Yeah.
My boyfriend was a punk rocker.
She, we grew up in a very, very strict household.
Like, we had a very strict father.
We're gonna laugh at the mall.
Yes, we were not allowed at the mall.
We're gonna get to go to the mall for you.
What's the reason?
You don't hang out at malls.
Yes.
Like, it's Friday night, everybody's going. You're not going. Well, that's the reason you don't hang out at malls? Yes. Like it's Friday night, everybody's going.
You're not going.
Well, that's the thing.
Like I think it's crazy as my dad was.
He was also so strict.
And that's what's so hard to like understand.
He was crazy strict with us.
I just want to say, see what happens to the middle child.
We were talking about me.
Oh, she has curly hair too.
And now we're not talking about me.
OK, OK. Okay, okay.
So hold on, this is great.

Middle child syndrome is a bit of a story.

I'm not gonna make sure she's a...
I mean, listen, if she goes to Atlantic City
and she lives at her new house now
and she doesn't make it home,
we wouldn't know.
In the next day when I call her,
we don't know.
She could be on the side of the road.
That's true. You're always always gonna make her check in.
We'd appreciate it if you take on that role
and always make sure mom begins my day.
Oh, that would be very nice.
Thank you.
No, so Lisa's very talented in the 80s.
She also did nails.
She does make up.
She's a cosmologist by trade.
I mean, well, I would say her children are actually the most artistic as well, because
they're both very good.
Yeah.
Breel's an awesome makeup artist.
My niece is Breel Polara on Instagram.
M.U.A. she does awesome makeup for anyone in the Tom's River area.
She does awesome makeup.
So I feel like your daughters are talented, very artistic.
They're artistic. They are like that. And even Gianna does incredible makeup, incredible hair.
They're just, they're artsy. They draw good. None of that they got from me.
Yeah. And I feel like you are good at like organizing and like being good at making memories.
Like you're very good at making so far. You're good at a party.
Very good at making memories. And what happened really was when Antlewella died,
really when, between Daddy and Antlewella,
which was a quite a bit of span of years.
But like, I talked to Daddy on Tuesday,
and then on Wednesday, they called and said,
Daddy died in the car accident last night.
So from that day on, it was very clear to me that,
like, time is the most important thing
that you don't get back.
So I'm very clear to make memories
and to be with my family all the time
And that is what I'm always like I feel like I created the hashtag making memories
I mean I got to a point where I was using it so much people like okay
We get it your make it memories, but like it's important to me and that's I don't know
Well, it is it is and we do we and like for instance tonight, you gotta have the glue, like I feel like,
there's definitely the glue.
I'm definitely the glue, I think it's a Gemini thing,
it is actually Gemini season, but I think it's
a complete opposite of a Gemini.
I know, I've been told my whole life
that I'm not a true Gemini, so I don't know,
I guess, maybe that's true.
A Gemini has two personalities,
it's like one day you see me on one person,
the next day I'm totally a different person,
I feel I'm very consistent. Consistent. You're not
like a typical Gemini. No, I'm very easy-going. I get along with everybody.
This is true. Let's keep talking about. Oh my god. Joe does that thing. Like he slurps it.
The cop, I'm gonna use the slurp. Joe's drinking a couple Well, but don't sit there while she's chewing gum
The more I tell him not to do it the more he does it is a boy
I don't think that's ever gonna have I don't think I'll ever ask for more. Thank you. I think that you have to. I don't think you have to.
There she goes.
You're the pain in life.
Oh God.
I was like, you know, the name of Wampley.
Touch me and it's going on.
I'm alive.
Oh Lord.
Believe it.
But one more thing, don't forget that I just.
She still wants to talk about her again.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
This is like, come down to Madden.
Give me the mic. Why does she still want to talk tell her. This is like, come down to my bed. Give me the mic.
Why does she still on?
No, the middle child.
This may important.
This may important.
I just became a grandmother.
Are you gonna acknowledge that?
Oh, yes.
I had a baby.
And my daughter, Gianna, just had a baby.
And she named her son after my dad, who my daughter never met.
I mean, technically, Gianna was, I think, one.
She was one. She was two or three. So this I think, one. She was, she was one.
So this is the crazy part. Everyone leases only 53. And she is a grandmother because she
had, she was young when she had her daughter. And then her daughter just had a child young.
And it's, she's 53. So I just, stop telling people how old I am. That's young.
Because people in their mind might be thinking they're
speaking to like a seven-year-old, your 53.
I know.
And you like?
Well, I had the kids young, and it was hard having kids young.
By 26, I had three kids.
So think about that.
But that's awesome.
I look at you now.
So let's just talk about this.
It's hard then.
Lisa, how old were you when you had all your how old were you?
23, 24, 26. So by 26, she had all three kids. Kim, you had all your how old were you 23 24 26 so by 26
She had all three kids Kim you had both
26 I was done by 29 I had all so we
Oh, same. Yeah, yeah, so my mother just said that she was done with Kim and Lisa and I was a complete accident 10 years later
So that was that actually
Were you upset? Yeah. You
were, you weren't excited. I was there. And look what you received. I mean, look, I wouldn't
have any. Tony Aaron. Well, you received an amazing son of a. You, you Whitney Houston,
the greatest love of all. Yes, the greatest love you've ever had. I give this family right there. Oh, good day.
When I came in to the family, they're like,
thank God, take her.
Take her.
I didn't say that to her.
Take her because mommy spoiled her rotten.
She was like, you can't eat those strawberries.
They're for the baby.
I'm like, she's 10.
So Campaloni, it's for the baby.
Yes, I'm calling the baby.
She's 18.
She's 18.
They're still calling her the baby.
Yeah, I have been called the baby since I was
born. Like I think it took up
until like 25 when they stopped
calling me the baby. Yes. And
that's why I'm gonna let's go
back to one. No, crazy guy.
No, you're just admitting it.
Now so you're growing her. I'm
married as woman. I would come
home from work. It was like 10 o'clock. I know to come on my exhausted. She's like, what are you doing? Go outside and do this. I'm like, woman chick. I would come home from work. It was like 10 o'clock.
I had to come on my mcZolest.
She's like, what are you doing?
Go outside and do this.
I'm like, why are you not?
And I would flip out like there was things that you didn't know, honey.
