INTERVIEW BEGINS AT : 35:55 Welcome back to our series on classic comedians, and this time we honor the life and career of the great Phil Silvers, who is as big as ever, in the UK??? Sadly he is grossly underappreciated and somewhat forgotten in his home land of the USA. Phil Silvers was a comic who did it all and conquered it all, from his early days of vaudeville and burlesque, to Hollywood, to Broadway, to TV super stardom, BACK to Hollywood and Broadway, Phil Silvers dominated every field of comedy. Silvers starred In Broadway classics like High Button Shoes, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to The Forum and his signature role of Jerry Biffle in the timeless hit Top Banana. In film he was in movies like 40 Pounds of Trouble, Follow That Camel and the classic It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World, but it is probably his stint on TV as Master Sgt Ernie Bilko that Silvers will forever be associated with, Silvers character of Sgt. Bilko has left a lasting impression on comedy on both sides of the Atlantic.

It's the final episode of our first season (sob), and there is no better artist, soul, human to help us close it out than Michael Urie. We talk about the crazy time we all find ourselves in, the value - and the work - of real self care, how to pay attention to the signals we are given, and how our understanding of spirituality has evolved individually and over the course of this podcast. A self-proclaimed agnostic, Michael never thought he'd be invited to the show (even though he's our hashtag number one listener), so we were thrilled to go deep, share some laughs, and sit in the warm glow of his charisma.

Other Off Broadway plays include Jane Anger, The Temperamentals, The Government Inspector, Homos or Everyone in America, Shows for Days, High Button Shoes, The Cherry Orchard, and two Tony Kushner plays: A Bright Room Called Day and Angels in America.
