MJ’s Jacket & Granny Party

About this episode

Sebastian and Pete discuss aging, a Michael Jackson jacket, and a unique birthday party theme.

Sebastian’s dad was in town as the guys talk about getting older and what it means when you talk to yourself. Italians are facing extinction thanks to mothers babying their kids well into their 40's. Pete shares with Sebastian a letter that he got from two listeners at one of his shows. The letter details how the couple came into possession of a worn Michael Jackson jacket during one of MJ’s concerts in 1984. We get the couple on the phone as the guys try to nail down a price and more details regarding the condition of the jacket and where its been for the past 40 years. Pete thinks we should buy it but then show it off at family events and even go dancing in it. Sebastian’s daughter had her 9th birthday party this past weekend and the theme was a “Granny Party”. The party was amazing but Sebastian is concerned with how he looked as an old man. Sebastian previews a conversation he had with Paul Anka and how he has stayed so fit and tanned at his age. Pete and Jackie had differing views on work done at their home.
