B&C Morning Show: Henry Winkler Talks About Being The Fonz, Discusses His New Book

We have a real treat for everyone this morning, as Al "Hughes" Dukes managed to book none other than Henry Winkler to join Boomer & Craig in the Allstate Studio.

Right off the bat, Craig made things a little uncomfortable by telling Winkler that his book would not sell.  The man affectionately known as "the Fonz" took Craig's ribbing in stride and even returned a few jabs himself.

The guys asked him about the legendary role of Fonzie and how it molded his career path, which has included producing and directing in addition to his acting and writing.  Winkler also talked about his role as "Chuck" to Michael Keaton's "Bill" in the 1982 classic "Night Shift."

In the end I believe Mr. Winkler enjoyed his time with the Dynamic Radio Duo and he even agreed to write a forward for Craig's book, but only if Craigie agrees to read the introduction to his new book...
