About this episode
Phil & David are thrilled to welcome a great friend -- beloved actress, best-selling author, humanitarian Kimberly Williams-Paisley to "Naked Lunch." Kimberly is hosting the new season of the Fox dating competition series, "Farmer Wants A Wife" which premieres March 20. They discuss Kimberly's frightening experience losing her voice for two years and how she eventually regained it -- also the subject of a recent People magazine cover story on her. Kimberly shares powerful and often funny stories from her long and impressive career, including how starring as the bride in the "Father of the Bride" movies forever changed not simply her career on screen, but ultimately her entire life. They also discuss the remarkable story of how Kim and her husband Brad Paisley started The Store (www.thestore.org), in Nashville, Tennessee, bringing together a dedicated community to combat food insecurity in Middle Tennessee with dignity and respect. All this plus a preview of our next episode with Peter Wolf. To learn more about building community through food and "Somebody Feed the People," visit the Philanthropy page at philrosenthalworld.com.
