Papa's Basement Radio Show

A Call From Mike Sacks, Ocean City’s Wayward Son — Episode 647

John Papageorgiou June 28, 2020


Background

Author, comedian, and all-around mensch Mike Sacks joins us to talk about his latest project, the Amazon-exclusive novelization of Passable In Pink , his 80s-drenched, coming-of-age audio book that satirized Pretty In Pink, Sixteen Candles, and every other work in the John Hughes canon. Hear what life has been like for this DMV-area transplant as he rides out quarantine in a Brooklyn apartment with his daughter, a pair of cats, and a browser window permanently open to the Thrasher’s French Fries camera on the Ocean City boardwalk. Has his OCD-driven work ethic and punk rock, DIY attitude been bested by the sounds of nightly fireworks, months without Orioles baseball, and flashbacks to the trauma of childhood trips to see the Capitol Steps? Only one way to find out…(by listening to the episode, in case that was too cryptic for you.)
