Friend of the show @lcarslibrarian.bsky.social reports that in the DaVinci Code, Langdon is referred to as "Harrison Ford in Harris tweed" (a phrase that irritated her so much it lodged in her memory forever) so you may be onto something
I think I can pinpoint this scene as Dan Brown's origin story

@worstbestsellers.bsky.social continues to be brought to you only by Steaks and Cakes, the fictional restaurant from Christian Mingle the movie. (and for real our beloved Patreon patrons).
I had a podcast with a small but loyal following from about 2015 to 2020, and in retrospect, it feels like being in a DIY punk band on an indie label before celebrities and corporate sponsors took over the industry.
i learned from the Time 100 Best Podcasts that podcasts are sports stadiums now

(btw i read the blurb for 'the rewatchables' and it sounds like the most nothing movie podcast....oh you talk about the most popular movies of all time and sometimes you're ~*goofy*~ about it wow congratulations)

Of 3 things I am absolutely positive:
1) Bookshop.org is having free shipping for an anti-Prime Day sale 📦
2) We are a Bookshop.org affiliate 😍
3) If you buy anything starting from our link (which hosts readalike lists for many eps) we get a lil kickback 🤑https://bookshop.org/shop/worstbestsellers
