Frida Kahlo Read By Pamela Adlon

(This episode originally aired 6/25/2018) Once upon a time, in a small town on the outskirts of Mexico City, there was a girl who lived in a blue house. Her name was Frida. From the outside, Frida's blue house was a common stucco building, with bright blue walls, tall windows, and green shutters. But past the entrance, a world of wonder awaited. THE HOST Pamela Fionna Adlon is an EMMY Award Winning American actress, voice actress, screenwriter, producer, and director. Pamela Adlon lent her voice to benefit the United Service Organization where Timbuktu made a donation in her name.

Pamela Adlon

This week's "Naked Lunch" podcast episode is definitely one of our "Better Things" as Phil & David very gleefully break bread and -- for the first time ever -- receive the generous gift of baked goods -- from the wildly talented Pamela Adlon. Together they lovingly and laughingly trace Pamela and Phil's decades long friendship that started when they worked together on a Fox sitcom called "Down The Shore" -- which Phil wrote on and Pamela starred in . . . until she was insanely fired for "not being hot enough." Phil, David and Pamela discuss the genius of Pamela's Peabody-winning FX series "Better Things" which she brilliantly wrote, directed, produced and starred in. They also discuss her remarkable life in show business with amazing stories that feature everyone from Redd Foxx to Michelle Pfeiffer to Judy Gold to Lenny Kravitz. Food by Mizlala.
