This was so much fun to listen to about one of my favorite movies. I, too, am both eager and fearful to see the sequel, SPINAL TAP 2: THE END CONTINUES, that is in theaters today.

This was such a fun time!! Genevieve Bujold was a PERFECT Anne Boleyn

I got to pick the movie for my birthday so we got to chat all about my favorite comedy, THIS IS SPINAL TAP. If you just need a laugh today, give it a listen!
