Check out the interview I mentioned during the podcast involving Jeff Cohen, who plays Chunk in the movie The Goonies. Both Jeff and Luke were child actors who got their start with Steven Spielberg. I saw some similarities between Jeff and talking to Luke. There are a couple of cringe moments in Jeff’s interview that I hope I didn’t have with Luke.
