His first edition of the ‘Phireside with Phil’ was a hit. She shared several stories from his career when he was part of the PGA Tour. Do you remember FDR’s famed “Fireside chats”? Phil’s first edition title was a nice spin on FDR’s chat show. There was a funny twist, though. The video looked like he was sitting on a toilet seat with a scented candle for his rescue. And you could see Phil wearing his World Golf Hall of Fame jacket. This made the show even more special. And to top this remarkable story, he included potty humor to it.
