Description:

You might not know the name Don Phillips, but you will definitely know the names of many the performers whose careers he launched as a casting director, and the films with which he was involved. He is one of four cultural titans that Dean and Phil remember in "Celebrity Deaths" on this week's show, including a poet and founder of the mythopoetic men's movement, an iconic Broadway composer, and a trombonist who received the highest honor ever bestowed on jazz musicians. Dean will update us on the latest in his bout with Covid-19, his travel plans, his live ghost hunts and his "Hellacious Renovations". Phil will regale us with his birthday adventures, his deep dive into historic movie locations, and his exploration of the Manzanar "War Relocation Center". Several movies will get analyzed as well, including a Kurosawa classic ripe for a modern-day remake, a film noir with a claim to the best dialogue of any movie ever, and a current box office hit that begs the question, "Does bustin' make Dean & Phil feel good?"
