    Director James Ponsoldt's new film, The End of the Tour, is the story of a five-day interview between a Rolling Stone journalist and novelist David Foster Wallace. When he and the film's star, Jason Segel, were at KCRW discussing their movie, we asked about their favorite pie. Ponsoldt recalls being brought to tears by an olallieberry pie from Duarte's Tavern.

    You can hear them on KCRW's The Business with Kim Masters on Monday, August 3 at 2:30.

    Music: "Comin Home Baby" by Booker T
