Patton Oswalt

Comedian and actor Patton Oswalt joins Phil and David this week to talk about his wild new film, "I Love My Dad," and the surreal (but real) story that inspired its story. Patton also discusses the emotional challenges he faced as a loving father himself in portraying the titular bad dad. Plus, hear about Patton's love for our previous guest Elaine May, his long and brilliant standup career, his profound passion for cinema, his long friendship with Phil and the funny story of their failed attempt to do a sitcom together. All this plus tasty talk about Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney, the Rolling Stones, and Patton's surprising gourmet pal in Anthrax, as well as his demonstrable obsession with his Naked Lunch meal from Ike's Love and Sandwiches!
