Tommy "Stigs" Stigliano of the wildly popular YouTube channel Tommy Stigs Social Club, which began in 2022 and has over 1.7 million views, has single handedly made our hometown of Belleville, New Jersey an international travel destination (true story! we talk about it) and has shown to his thousands of followers, what it means to not only be Italian and from New Jersey, but loyal, faithful, wanting to learn and grow and be better everyday, and always freaking funny!
When Tommy was younger, he was involved in a lifestyle that concerned his grandfather. He later turned his life around, and with frankness, his signature wit, and now an abundance of gratitude, he discusses losing it all and learning from it all and the meaning of the dollar bill with the numbers 5-9-7.
