Is 60 the new 40? Is Chris too old to look like Jesus? Remember the patch on Julia Child's blouse?
Of course, the twins go down rabbit holes in this eipsode - and it's probably Roger's fault. From rock video shoots to Bible difficulties, Pete Townshend to L.A. Guns, Depeche Mode to W.A.S.P, the banter continues into books, pipes and tobacco, streaming television and more - including a musical gem from the archive.
