Joey Merlino joins Rachel Uchitel for a candid conversation about the life behind the headlines.

Federal prosecutors called him the boss of the Philadelphia crime family. He spent years behind bars, fought major federal cases, and became the subject of a Netflix documentary. But this interview goes beyond the mob narrative.

Joey discusses prison, solitary confinement, gambling addiction, loyalty, betrayal, family, and why he believes trust has been both his strength and his weakness. He also shares his perspective on second chances, hiring former inmates, and what really matters after decades of public scrutiny.

This is one of the most revealing conversations we've had on Miss Understood.
