Phil & David are the happy Madmen Across The Table as their dream "Naked Lunch" conversation with legendary songwriter Bernie Taupin continues with more talk about his amazing new album --  "The Sea Has No Mercy," out on October 23rd -- his remarkable and enduring creative partnership with Elton John, and lots of food talk, too.  It's more than a little bit funny, and really interesting. Then, for all the Tiny Dancers out there, we finish the episode by spotlighting a great moment from our episode with Cameron Crowe in which Kate Hudson asks an excellent question. For more info on Bernie, follow him on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/bernietaupinofficial/?hl=en. To learn more about building community through food and "Somebody Feed the People," visit the Philanthropy page at ⁠philrosenthalworld.com⁠.Learn more about your ad choices.
