Wear a mask, when they ask,
or Granmma's going to die

Wednesday, June 15, 2022

Dear Reader,

My 15-year-old son's parody of "American Pie" features this chorus:

So, my, my, this covidian lie
Wear a mask when they ask or Gramma's going to die
The morgues aren't packed with bodies piled up high
Yet we must all lock ourselves down or we'll die
Don't you think it's time we ask why?

Tonight, at 8pm EST, Jonah will be performing the complete parody on the piano, live on The Fakeologist Podcast. The Fakeologist will also be interviewing him (and me) about being home schooled since birth, his pre-COVID acting career and more. It's a call-in show, so you can ask him any questions. You can find out the various ways to watch or listen to the show at Fakeologist.com.
