The Sherpa Screening Room: Lord Mr. Bruce (Goldberg) Returns! (Pt 2)

The Sherpa Screening Room: Lord Mr. Bruce (Goldberg) Returns! (Pt. 1)

Not many people know this, but Lord Mr. Bruce has gotten me out of a jam several times. (And I'm not even including the story of Velma, the Queen of Spaghetti-O's and those 2 wild pigeons!) He is certainly a great online fri…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Eddie Deezen!

Rebels, how many times am I fortunate enough to say, "This was a real treat"? Well, I must say it again! Eddie is one of those folks who are just naturals at podcast guesting. Full of fascinating stories, gracious, and funny…

The Sherpa Screening Room: A Discussion about Alzheimer's with Kelly Tata

We hear and read so much about the devastation of Alzheimer's on patients and the effects on their loved ones. But to talk to Kelly, you can almost feel her pain. Especially that her father, character actor Joe E. Tata was s…

Tony Mazur hosts the "Check Your Brain" podcast, but does the Sherpa have one to qualify?

Impression alert! (No, not mine, you're safe...) Tony does some great impressions in the course of this interview, and pretty obscure ones, too! We certainly cover a gamut of topics, which is what Tony essentially does on "C…

The Million Dollar Episode! (As in, we don't have it here...)

Why a million dollars? Would you be listening if this was "The $4.36 Show"? Since it's a holiday week here on Podcastia, and all of our potential guests are stuffing their faces or stuck in the airport, I figured I'd cut the…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Singer Dani Hagan!

Rebels, it's always fun to get to interview an artist who's been generating a lot of buzz. The only time I generate buzz is when I walk into a hornet's nest. Unintentionally. Well, usually. But, as the music you will get to …

Jaimie Beebe of "Strictly Stalking" on true crime, true movie casting, & true bikinis(?) !!

Jim Fanara, of "The Courageous Entrepreneur", meets The Podcast Sherpa ("the cowardly non-trepreneur")!!

Something I didn't get to bring up in the interview... Jim was a competitive weightlifter, and you can see him clean and jerk, and snatch over 300 lbs(!) on his YouTube page. I'm lucky if I can snatch a jelly bean without bl…

Trick or Treat! It's Jennifer Page, of "I Talk To Ghosts" !!

Happy Halloween, Rebels! (Or Happy Millard Fillmore day, if you're listening on another day.) "Odd Tonic" might be on a break, but as Jennifer told me, she loves a good ghost story, and the opportunity to tell one. Thus came…
