About this listen

Phil Rosenthal joins Brent Spiner and Jonathan Frakes for a funny, insightful, and surprisingly heartfelt conversation about sitcoms, Hollywood, creative control, travel, food, and the stories behind Everybody Loves Raymond and Somebody Feed Phil.


Phil shares how he fought to cast the right people on Everybody Loves Raymond, why he quit twice before the show even launched, how Hollywood decision making can go completely off the rails, and why he eventually found his perfect second act in food and travel. He also talks about Exporting Raymond, PBS, Netflix, family, live appearances, writing children’s books with his daughter, and the deeper message behind sharing a meal with people from different cultures.
