Big Boo Cast: Episode 195

It was about six weeks ago when my friend Karen Howell recommended a show called Somebody Feed Phil on Netflix. Thanks to the pandemic, I had pretty much watched everything else on Netflix and decided to give it a try. And, listen, I’m so glad I did.

It is the most delightful show and the perfect thing to watch as we watch the world go crazy. Phil Rosenthal is a delight. In each episode he travels to a new location to eat at various restaurants, but – even more importantly – he connects with the people in that city. He leads with love and grace and, frankly, we could use a lot more of that.

So when Sophie reached out to him and he agreed to be a guest on the podcast, we couldn’t have been more excited. He was everything we hoped he would be and more. So funny and charming. I give this episode all the thumbs up.
