Oil prices are up about 6% in just the past month and more than 50% from a year ago, and heating oil is following right behind. Maine just hit a record $6.02 a gallon; Massachusetts is close behind, and households that heat with oil are projected to pay about 31% more this winter, averaging nearly $2,300. The war with Iran, the Strait of Hormuz, and attacks on Russian refineries are squeezing supply, and the Northeast is taking the hit. Winter is coming, and it's going to be expensive. Are you ready for your heating bill?

Sammy "The Bull" Gravano reacts to the controversy over a New York City immigrant neighborhoods map shared by Zohran Mamdani that left out Little Italy, calling the omission a "big mistake" given the size of the city's Italian and Jewish communities, and predicting the two groups may rally together in response. Gravano also recalls his experiences with Muslim inmates in prison and shares his concerns about the future of the city he grew up in, saying he wishes different religions and communities could grow together rather than clash over power and greed.

Sammy "The Bull" Gravano tells Patrick Bet-David that no one from the mob families has ever called to dispute his stories or tell him to stop talking, recalls a judge dismissing a victim's sister's letter at his sentencing, and explains his belief that hitmen shouldn't be blamed for following orders in "the life." He then challenges John Gotti Jr. to sit down with Bet-David and tell the truth, levels new allegations against him, and opens up about the murders that still haunt him, including the Johnny Keys hit and the killing of his childhood friend Louie Milito.

Sammy "The Bull" Gravano recalls receiving an unexpected phone call from the son of John Santiago, one of the 19 murders on his list, who respectfully asked why his father was killed. Gravano explains that one of his top crew members killed Santiago against his wishes over an affair with the crew member's sister-in-law, and that Gravano's role in cleaning up the aftermath made him responsible, an account the son thanked him for.

Sammy "The Bull" Gravano tells Patrick Bet-David he wouldn't sit down with John Gotti Jr. for anything less than a million dollars, and argues that Junior is himself an informant for having cooperated with the government. Gravano also addresses the label of "rat" he says he's stuck with, calls Gotti Sr.'s alleged plan to pin the case on him a "rat move," and recounts urging Gotti not to retaliate against John Favara, the neighbor who accidentally killed Gotti's son Frank in a car accident.

Sammy "The Bull" Gravano admits to Patrick Bet-David that he was an ice-cold killer who would have carried out any ordered hit, while stressing that he confessed to every crime he took part in and saw himself more as a planner than a shooter, including the Paul Castellano murder. He recalls how his mentor Toddo Aurello pointed out the difference between Gravano's calculated approach during armed robberies and his reactive partner "Alley Boy," who would shoot first without thinking.
