Naked Lunch

Phil and David didn't want last week's conversation with Elvis Costello & T Bone Burnett to end, so they invited The Artists Also Known as Howard Coward and Henry Coward to discuss The Fab Four and so much more. The result might have been A Hard Day's Night for our Fab guests, but it was the best kind of Magical Mystery Tour for Phil, David & all of you out there trying to create "Naked Lunchmania." Stay tuned for a preview of the three-part Audible Original series, "The True Story of The Coward Brothers."

Pump It Up because Phil & David are thrilled to welcome a dynamic duo of musical heroes to their Imperial Bedroom studio for a conversation that's truly Beyond Belief. David takes credit for introducing Elvis to his wife backstage at the Grammy Award in 2002, the same year T Bone won Album of the Year for the "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" soundtrack. Then talk turns to the recently released "King Of America and Other Realms" box set, the upcoming Christopher Guest-directed Audible Original series, "The True Story of The Coward Brothers" and its companion CD, all coming out November 21st. And there's Less Than Zero chance you won't Get Happy when The Coward Brother join this "Lunch." To learn more about building community through food and "Somebody Feed the People," visit the Philanthropy page at philrosenthalworld.com.

Phil and David -- unlike the "Los Angeles Times" and "Washington Post" -- want to make a big endorsement: we endorse whatever Jimmy Kimmel says. And so here with a brand new introduction, is the "Naked Lunch" episode that went viral and made headlines around the world. Yes, Jimmy talks Trump, but so much more in a funny, emotional and Italian food-filled conversation well worth revisiting before Election Day 2024.  To learn more about building community through food and "Somebody Feed the People," visit the Philanthropy page at philrosenthalworld.com.

Phil and David welcome the brilliant director, writer & legendary Rolling Stone journalist Cameron Crowe to "Naked Lunch" to discuss the release of "Tom Petty: Heartbreakers Beach Party," Crowe's long lost and now wonderfully expanded directorial debut that hit theaters last week and will be streaming soon on Paramount Plus. Kate Hudson -- who famously gave a Golden Globe-winning, Academy Award-nominated performance as Penny Lane in Crowe's autobiographical classic "Almost Famous," for which Cameron won an Oscar -- makes a very special "Lunch" appearance to ask Cameron a glorious question about the music in his movies.  This episode will have you at "Hello" with fantastic stories about Cameron's "Jerry Maguire" and "Vanilla Sky" leading man Tom Cruise, Sean Penn, Billy Wilder, Paul McCartney and so many more.
