The book is called "The Night Before Christmas at Dunder Mifflin" and it's on sale now. We recently got an opportunity to chat with Brian and Ben about the book and the sitcom I will never stop quoting. This was our favorite moment from that chat.

Lou: Boys, what do you think about your castmate John Krasinski who was just named People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive?

Ben: "Really!?"

Brian: "Yes, Ben, that was announced yesterday. Let me just go on record as saying: I don't see it, I don't understand it, it's very confusing to me, and I feel lost in this world. But I think it's pretty fun. Look, he and Emily are obviously fantastic, and hearing their responses when he found out is pretty funny. There may be a social media post from me poking fun at it. I went through photos—let me just say this: it's true, last night just before bed, I went through old photos to try to find the perfect one to post and congratulate him on this accomplishment. I wasn’t fully happy with any of them, so I’m still going to do a little work on that today."
