Description: This episode will focus on karma, explanations and reality. It looks like certain people that did Michael wrong are getting their karma. Taj and Prince explain things but needs some clearing up and singer Tank wants to call Michael a "thief" for the sake of proclaiming Michael's copycat Chris Brown as a "great". The comedy writes itself and it is time to examine why such a false allegation is laughable.

Description: This is an interview with a woman name Starr Hayes who was friends with Michael since the late 1960s. She, along with other fans, created one of the first fan clubs of the Jacksons called Jackson Doll Productions. We discussed so many topics such as being his friend, his employees, his family, his women, his fans and the last time she communicated with him. Finally, a possible documentary that I might do on Michael. I hope you all enjoy the interview and learn some things about him.
