We are joined today by our guest host Jimmy to talk all about Steven Spielberg's 2002 film Catch Me If You Can! We discuss the differences between the film, the book it's based on, and the "TRUE" story of Frank Abagnale Jr., the man who conned his way around the globe with fake checks and pilot uniforms. We have Christopher Walken impressions, young Leo DiCaprio trying to pivot his career, and a blur between fact and fiction. Listen now to hear us discuss the film's themes and story!
