Summary

Phil invites his longtime friend Judy Gold -- comedian, actress, writer, author and podcaster -- for a very warm, witty and revealing "Naked Lunch" featuring comfort food from Art's Deli where "Every Sandwich is a work of Art." Judy tells Phil and David all about her long life in stand-up, including starting out with Ray Romano and other comedy icons, her own "Kill Me Now with Judy Gold" podcast, and the enduring importance of freedom in comedy, the subject of Gold's funny and heartfelt 2020 book, "Yes, I Can Say That: When They Come For The Comedians We Are All In Trouble." Judy has many funny, honest and moving things to say about her life and work, including the story of a pilot script she and Phil worked on to co-star Gold and Brad Garrett, and what it meant to be so out as both a lesbian and a Jew in comedy. To learn more about building community through food and "Somebody Feed the People," visit the Philanthropy page at philrosenthalworld.com.
