TCM Schedule for Wednesday, January 20: Whodunit Wednesdays

[CBHagman]

It's Inauguration Day, and TCM has a full slate of Joe movies on offer as Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. takes the oath of office. And tackle this trivia question: Which film did Joe Biden discuss on TCM when he and three other members of the Senate were featured on the channel years ago?

This evening it's time for a dish of ice cream (or your snack of choice) as TCM brings on the whodunits!
