About this episode

Phil and David chat with Will Forte about his experiences in film and animation, including 'Coyote Vs. Acme' and 'Nebraska'.

Phil and David are joined by their brilliantly talented friend Will Forte for an animated conversation about the remarkable fall and rise of "Coyote Vs. Acme," how Phil shared a desk with Chuck Jones, how Will loved working with Bruce Dern in "Nebraska" and how Will and David had a far more stormy experience working with P. Diddy. Go see "Coyote Vs. Acme" -- for more info on where it's playing near you, go to  https://www.coyotevsacme.com. To learn more about building community through food and "Somebody Feed the People," visit the Philanthropy page at philrosenthalworld.com.
