    Wendy Liebman & Jeffrey Sherman, Their Funny Life Together & Remembering The Sherman Brothers

    Wendy Liebman & Jeffrey Sherman, Their Funny Life Together & Remembering The Sherman Brothers

    Recently, Phil and David invited two of their friends -- the beloved stand-up comedian Wendy Liebman and her brilliant producer, writer, director and now podcaster husband Jeffrey Sherman -- to "Naked Lunch." Just days prior, Jeffrey's uncle Richard M. Sherman -- half of the legendary Sherman Brothers songwriting team along with Jeff's late great father Robert B. Sherman -- passed away at age 95. As a result, this "Lunch" begins with a spontaneous salute to The Sherman Brothers, and a discussion of their relationship to each other and Walt Disney, as depicted in Jeff and his cousin Gregory's acclaimed 2009 documentary, "The Boys: The Sherman Brothers' Story." From there, talk moves on to Wendy's illustrious comedy career and her relationship with Jeff -- and so much more.

Only the best showbiz stories & lessons

My goodness, I’m not sure if you’ll find a pair of more charming, humble gents in Hollywood. These two have some amazing guests they genuinely seem to have real life friendships with. You can feel the high level of integrity of character as they schmooze & lunch while giving us the best Hollywood stories. What a fun fast pod to listen to. Always leaves me smiling. Good vibes only.

Fun and Funny

I listen to you guys on the way to work. A great, positive start to my day. I hope someday you seek out June from Delish magazine. She did a series called Budget Eats during the pandemic.
I think she’d make a great guest on your show.
