On the 259th episode of Piecing It Together, Joe Black is back on the podcast to talk about the long, long, LONG awaited reboot of the Fletch series with John Hamm in Confess, Fletch. It’s definitely its own thing from the Chevy Chase classic, but we had a great time with this new entry in the series. Puzzle pieces include The Long Goodbye, The Kid Detective, Clue and Beverly Hills Cop.

As always, SPOILER ALERT for Confess, Fletch and the movies we discuss!
