Let's Do Lunch
On this week’s Naked Lunch podcast, hosts Phil Rosenthal and David Wild take a detour from their entertainment world conversations to “celebrate their 50th Anniversary -- okay episode” by having lunch with Nicolle Wallace, host of Deadline: White House on MSNBC. As the show writes about this week’s episode, they talk about her life “which has taken her from being White House Communications Director for George W. Bush to her time alongside Whoopi Goldberg on The View to her current high profile job covering America and the world on her own compelling daily show. Wallace -- who previously phoned into our Naked Lunch with her West Wing hero Allison Janney -- discusses the unlikely story of how Brad Paisley [who wrote and sings the podcast’s theme song] introduced Nicolle and David and their remarkable experience working together on last year's "Ukraine: Answering The Call" telethon, Phil's experience working with Bill Clinton on the famously funny The Final Days short film as well as some current events and how we can all try to rebuild common ground in these often tense political times.
By the way, as a bonus, during the episode, when discussing the Ukraine telethon, they bring up a song about Ukraine written and performed by Brad Paisely (who wrote the theme song for the Naked Lunch podcast) and play about a minute. You may have heard it, called “Same Here,” which includes excerpts of a conversation Paisley had with Volodymyr Zelenskyy mixed in, but if not, this is the music video.
