No, i said cleanup, not prenup! I can't do a prenup without Dirty Louie present! So, it's been an interesting season, wouldn't you say?

Don't "draw" any conclusions (*groan*) about animation-Mark Stancil of Terminus Media is Here!
July 7, 2021
This episode, I feel, truly represents a labor of love. Oh, not for me, I'm talking about my guest, Mark Stancil, of Terminus Media! My true labor of love is transforming my belly button lint back into the original sweater from whence it came.But, back to Mark. He's a guy who, along with others, cr…

June 30, 2021
This was a fun one, Rebels.

Or Dirty Louie is paying my guests well, out of the Sherpa Slush Fund (Financi…

SML ( So much laughing) episode?Okay, let's go to the checklist: Excessive laughing? Check. Slightly loud microphone? Check. A funny guest? Double check!

It's Anthony from "The Independent Mouth" (thank goodness "The Conservative Nostrils" stayed home)!
June 9, 2021
You know, I actually SAY, "You sound like you're in a hole!" in this interview. For this episode Rebels, sadly, I do. But it's not too deep a hole, I promise. But what an interesting guest Anthony was. In a still relatively young life, he's experienced more highs and lows than most people, myself …
The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Aubrey Logan!
June 2, 2021
Another episode in my never-ending pursuit to bring all music to the masses! Or something like that. You can just tell how much fun it was to talk to Aubrey.

Call It A Comeback! It's Michael Stein of "Long Shot Leaders!"
May 26, 2021
I hope that when you, dear listeners, hear interviews, like today's chat with Michael, keep in mind that there is always hope even when things may seem to be at their most dire or bleak. It's certainly not the easiest thing to focus on in hard times, but trust me, it's there. Just have a listen to…
We get the "Big Skinny" on Kenney Pope of "Casual Conversations"!
May 19, 2021
After over 140 episodes, I'm surprised that I haven't spoken to to more podcasters with radio backgrounds, with of course, the exception being the brilliant Mr. Bruce (or Uncle Bruce, if you're listening to our "Too Many 80's Songs" mini-podcast on Spotify....and why aren't you?? Either way, the ch…
A Lesson In Resilience: Meet Former Playboy Playmate, Deborah Driggs!
May 12, 2021
In a lot of my episodes up to this point, I've spoken to people who've had their time in the spotlight. ( Not me, Rebels, I sunburn too easily).They've all gone down separate roads since that time. Today, you'll get to hear Deborah's story, which is also a reflection on the highs and lows of her li…
Hold that Falsetto! It's David Fedor of "Bee Gees (and Me)"!
May 5, 2021
The Bee Gees, you say? Yep. I think it's pretty cool how David uses his passion as a superfan and reaches out to other superfans with a great podcast. ( Listen on Spotify, and hear their music along with the show.) Some of you might not be aware of their whole catalogue. They're just not the artist…

It's a Royal Flush with Wize of "Stuck In My Mind" (Please insert "Sherpa Bathroom Joke" here...)!!!
April 14, 2021
What impresses me so much about a guy like Wize (a Wize guy? No...nevermind.)is how driven that he is as a podcaster. He wants his voice to have a place in your audio/visual media. And I can see that happening. Hey, if I'm able to bring my humor to a podcast, anything is possible, right? But anyway…
The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Jill Whelan!
April 7, 2021
What a pleasure this interview was, Rebels! I've been fortunate to interview a few former child stars, but Jill really made it her mission to be involved with entertainment, one way or the other. And as you'll hear in the interview, so much of her life has come full circle. I thought it was so cool…
Giving Competitive Pole Dancing a "twirl"- with Renee!
March 31, 2021
This was an episode that came out of the blue. I was contacted through a website by Renee, who said she'd like to come on the show to talk about competitive pole dancing. So, naturally, knowing absolutely nothing about this, I said, "Of course!" (Which is how i got into college. And became a superh…
