Celebrity Franchises, Ventures (and Misadventures) w/ Rich Brown and Kliph Nesteroff

Frank is joined by producer Rich Brown ("The Daily Show," "Jimmy Kimmel Live") and bestselling author Kliph Nesteroff ("The Comedians: Drunks, Thieves, Scoundrels and the History of American Comedy") for an absurdly funny—and in-depth!—conversation about a favorite topic: failed (and forgotten) celebrity business ventures, including Alan Hale's Lobster Barrel, Gary Burghoff's Frozen Yogurt, Johnny Weissmuller's Tropical Wonderland, Pat Boone's Dine-O-Mat, Phyllis Diller's Philli Dilli Chili, and of course, Cesar Romero's Cappuccino Ristorante. Also in this episode, Gene Rayburn loses his shirt, Stu Gilliam loses his cool, Jerry Lewis steals Dean Martin's maître d' and Mickey Rooney introduces the donut-shaped hot dog.
