You created Everybody Loves Raymond-
- PRPhil Rosenthal
Mm-hmm
- SSSimon Sinek
... and Somebody Feed Phil.
- PRPhil Rosenthal
Mm-hmm.
- SSSimon Sinek
It's always got some name in it.
- PRPhil Rosenthal
Yeah.
- SSSimon Sinek
So what would you name my show?
- PRPhil Rosenthal
Somebody Talk To Simon.
- SSSimon Sinek
[laughs] It's so, it's so lonely. [laughs] Before we turn on the cameras and the mics, I tell every guest who comes on the show that this is not like an interview show that they're used to. It's more like a conversation. I tell them to imagine that we're out for a meal-
- SPSpeaker
[laughing]
- SSSimon Sinek
... and the people sitting next to us are eavesdropping on us because our conversation is better than theirs. Well, for this episode, we decided to do just that, literally.
- PRPhil Rosenthal
Holy crap, this is a best cheesecake.
- SSSimon Sinek
As soon as I heard that Phil Rosenthal, the brilliant creator and executive producer behind Everybody Loves Raymond, and the joyful heart and face of Somebody Feed Phil, was coming on the show, I wanted to give him food. So we turned our little podcast into an even littler restaurant. Please pull up a chair at our table for the latest episode of Somebody Talk to Simon. I mean, A Bit of Optimism. [upbeat music] This episode is brought to you by True Classic. The way they became our sponsor is because I loved their T-shirts, and so we just called them up and asked them if they wanted to work together, and they said yes. So check out their clothes at trueclassic.com. I warned you before we turned the cameras on-
- PRPhil Rosenthal
Yeah
- SSSimon Sinek
... which is, we have so much damn food that we brought.
- PRPhil Rosenthal
Yeah.
- SSSimon Sinek
Um, um, don't finish anything because we have to get through it all. And I haven't had breakfast, so I'm spacey.
- PRPhil Rosenthal
Great. I had a little protein drink, so, so that's-
- SSSimon Sinek
You're okay
- PRPhil Rosenthal
... I'm hungry too. But-
- SSSimon Sinek
Good
- PRPhil Rosenthal
... oh, yeah, yeah. But that's my secret, by the way. The number one question I get is how come I'm not fat, and it is, one reason is I don't finish anything. If you see me eating like crazy on the show-
- SSSimon Sinek
Yeah
- PRPhil Rosenthal
... I am, but I'm not really... Unless it's the, the, like, most delicious thing I've ever had and I'm, know I'll never get to this part of Chiang Mai again to have this bowl-
- SSSimon Sinek
Right
- PRPhil Rosenthal
... of khao soi, I'm finishing it.
- SSSimon Sinek
Got it.
- PRPhil Rosenthal
And I'm, and maybe ordering another one. If you're in a town that's famous for certain dishes-
- SSSimon Sinek
Yeah
- PRPhil Rosenthal
... you want those dishes.
