"I'm exactly like Anthony Bourdain, if he was afraid of everything."

Phil Rosenthal, the creator of "Everybody Loves Raymond" and host of Netflix's deliciously popular travel show, "Somebody Feed Phil", delights in leaving Dan "The Grief Eater" Le Batard to go hungry in maybe the most positive and mouthwatering South Beach Sessions to date. Phil never dreamt of writing and creating one of the most successful and beloved sitcoms of all-time, but he shares how he made sure it would be a show watched all around the world, even today, thirty years later. He talks about how there's nothing that brings people together more than the combination of family, food, travel, and humor - and nothing will stop him now from continuing to explore that combination all over the world. Phil also shares some of his favorite laughs (and meals) from his shows, honoring his parents with the opening of the most-popular diner in Los Angeles right now, Max & Helen's, and the joys of writing the New York Times-bestselling "Just Try It" series of children's books with his daughter, Lily. Phil and Lily's newest book, "Just Try It: Someplace New!" is available everywhere now and go to PhilRosenthalWorld.com for everything Phil.
