When my friend Brian Abrams reached out to ask me if I would be interested in having him on the show to talk about his new book about famous movie quotes I thought - I'd love to have you on but I'm not sure I am the best person to interview you on this which is why I reached out to my friend, Comedian and film nerd Christian Finnegan. I loved producing this interview and I hope you love hearing it. Thanks again to Christian and Brian for doing it!
