[Bit 1]

I'm Alessio, I'm Italian of Jewish descent,

which means I like my salami without the skin.

Also means that while half my family were hiding

in World War II, the other half were seeking.

[Bit 2]

Yeah, that's true by the way, my granddad fought

for the Nazis in World War II,

which was not good for his LinkedIn.

But it did make for pretty good dinnertime conversations.

You know, I could ask my granddad questions like,

"Granddad, did you ever commit any war crimes?"

And he'd just look at me with those big blue eyes.

"Nine!"

I was like, "Is that no other number?

'Cause it makes a big difference."

But, you know, I never believed him.

Grand said he was a gas lighter.
