Beansie Gaeta: One of The Sopranos Most Resilient Survivors!

Beansie Gaeta is one of The Sopranos most resilient survivors. He's an associate of Tony Soprano and the DiMeo Family who worked for the Aprile crew in the past. But Richie Aprile doesn't want to let the past stay in the past when he returns from the can. And he unleashes his wrath on Beansie Gaeta, demanding to start getting a certain amount of money each week from Beansie from the proceeds of his pizza restaurants. Despite everything that went down, I see Beansie Gaeta as a strong, loyal and resilient Sopranos survivor, and this video dives more into why.
