About this listen

 What's the oldest thing you've ever kept? For Liam O'Connell, it's not a family heirloom or a vintage collectible, but a six-inch Subway sandwich he and his mate bought back in 1998. What started as a drunken university bet has, against all odds, survived for over two decades, evolving from a piece of forgotten junk in his garage into a local legend known as "The Granddad Sandwich." Join us as Liam shares the utterly mad journey of his petrified sub. It's a story that involves his wife nearly binning the prized possession, it becoming an unlikely media sensation, and even leading to a tense, surreal interrogation with US Homeland Security. This isn't just a story about stale bread and preserved turkey; it's a hilarious testament to friendship, the absurdity of life, and how one silly decision can spiral into an international incident. You won't believe where this sandwich has been. Stories are dramatized based on real anonymous posts. Names and details are changed for privacy. Produced with AI assistance.
