Summary

Phil and David follow their special Oscar Week episode with Jimmy Kimmel with this never not funny "Lunch" with another hilarious Jimmy -- their friend Jimmy Pardo who has hosted both of them on his own popular and long standing podcast called "Never Not Funny." Phil and David discuss how they each first came to know Jimmy, then seek some advice about keeping a podcast alive and well. Jimmy tells a great horror story about his worst moment as a stand up comedian, working for a record company and nearly opening for Elton John, and his Pardcast-A-Thon charity event to benefit Smile Train. Jimmy also shares the less than wild story about getting cut out of the movie "Dreamgirls," while David tells his own tale about getting cut out of the movie "Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping," while producer Will Sterling explains what it felt like to get edited out of an episode of "This Is Us." Phil then offers his power producer perspective and tries to make everyone feel better. All this and tasty salads and sandwiches from Oui Melrose. To learn more about building community through food and "Somebody Feed the People," visit the Philanthropy page at philrosenthalworld.com.
