Episode 6: Gonna Bust the Chief

Fletchcast is back from a short vacation and all over the Chief of Police (Alan Stanwyk's partner in crime) Jerry Karlin. We tackle all the differences between the character in the movie (played by Joe Don Baker) and the character in the book. We back into all the information about the cut Dodgers dream scene where we find out why Fletch HATES Tommy Lasorda. We debut a new segment called "Fletch Pop Culture" where we expose incredible Fletch references in TV, Film and More... This week 2 Fletch references in the the 2005 haunting series "Supernatural."
