Whether it be on MeTV, IMDB.tv, or other places, Columbo made a resurgence during the pandemic. David Koenig capitalized on that with his new book, Shooting Columbo: The Lives and Deaths of TV's Rumpled Detective. David spoke with Check Your Brain's Tony Mazur about how Peter Falk got the gig, the NBC Mystery Movie wheel, favorite episodes and guest killers, the "new" episodes, and its legacy over the last half century.
