We Say "Buh Bye (to Season 10)"!!

Well, Rebels, it's time for the mini-episode where I get to give thanks to all of those who made this season what it was. (What was it? Honestly, no idea.) If you're new to the show, simply subscribe to check out what you've…

Headlines, Chalk Outlines, and Police Line-ups, with Robert Riggs of "True Crime Reporter"!! (Season 10 Finale)

(Since this interview is about true crime, there are mentions of violence. Please take care when listening, if this is an emotional trigger.) Wow! What a way to wrap up season 10! Robert's email saying he wanted to do the in…

The Short Episode!

Yep Rebels, another quick episode for ya. Stay fir the "Sherpa Samples", leave with a cannoli. Or something like that. In addition to mentioning the websites an apps I mentioned aren't sponsors of the show, and are just reco…

Podcasting...on a Budget!! (Can it be done?)

At long last! A peek behind the curtain at Sherpa-Lu Studios! (Oops, sorry, madam, wrong curtain...). Anyway, these are the websites and apps that I've used to create this show, and also, some for you to check out: Podcast P…

Meet Tonia Gilbert, LPN ! ( A Tribute to Nurses and Healthcare Professionals)

There are SOOOOO many different kinds of healthcare professionals out there that deserve this kind of praise (and from a better podcast,too!) Fortunately , I was able to chat with Tonia, who provided a lot of insight into th…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Bennett Yellin!

So, how cool is Bennett? Keeping audiences ( and me, in this interview) laughing and entertained, Keeping Woody Allen off the toilet, and keeping a million dollars from John Hughes! I'm lucky if I can keep an imaginary secre…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Don Smith!

As you can tell, with a guest like Don, interviews are super easy, as he's always got a great story to tell, about a wide array of topics, too! Unfortunately, I couldn't get to the link in which i appeared on his show, "The …

You'll be a "Fanacek" of his podcast! Meet....Fanacek!

I guess that I can relate to Fanacek's tale of being babysat by the TV. I'm sure most of you can relate to sharing a crib with a 24" RCA, right? (Just me? Ummm... never mind.) But TV plays an important part of most people's …

Old Friends and Big Dogs Only! It's Scott from the "No New Friends" Podcast!

Rebels, at a certain age, I guess it's tricky to make new friends. (I still don't understand why I get so much flak for handing out applications. My rejection letters are highly regarded, you know...) It was interesting gett…

Get that "MoJOE", with Joe McCarthy, of "MoJOE studio" !!

Rebels, this took a few tries, but ultimately, was well worth it. If you hear my Wisdom chats (see info below), you'll notice Joe is a pretty regular visitor, and we always get into some interesting chats. Which is really wh…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Chip White!

The thing you'll probably notice the most about Chip in this interview is how humble he is. Even when we were setting up the interview, he told me, " I'm just a producer. You sure you want me on your podcast?" (Spoiler alert…

"Too Many Podcasts!" Meets YouTube! (And other important sounding news!)

If you want full disclosure, I've had a YouTube channel for quite some time, and I kind of forgot about it for a while. But I found that as I got better with my audio (I did...didn't I?) , I was actually having fun with crea…

Dreaming Rhinos and Podcasts! Meet Aaron Peve of "The B&W Show"!

To be honest, Rebels, I'm not sure if I'd want to be in the same pen as a rhinoceros. With my luck, it would probably look upon me as, um, an appetizer. But at least it provided Aaron with enough inspiration for a book. (Muc…

It's the Ladies from "Allegedly Credible" (talking to an allegedly talented podcast sherpa?)!!

Rebels, it was such a treat to get to know these two ladies. It's amazing that 2 people with such different outlooks on life can combine their collective skills to make such an interesting podcast. (If I were to meet my pola…

It's Adam from the "Podcasting Business School"!! (and the sound of this podcast growing!)

It's always a treat to meet a fellow podcast fan (and also, a fellow "Fandy") who also happens to be on my regular podcast playlist,as well. When listening to Adam's show, I can assure you, no "hoop jumping" is required. It'…

The Wisdom Files, Volume 2: It's Ladies' Night!

(Content warning: a little strong language in the last interview.)As promised, Rebels, I definitely had to feature some of the amazing women speakers on the Wisdom app. And they certainly do deliver the inspiration in this e…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Larry Hankin Returns! (Pt 2- Warning: a few Expletives in this one...)

Okay, so not only do you get the conclusion to the interview with Larry Hankin, you also get to hear the voice of the lovely Sherpa Bride! (And you said she didn't exist, you with the hat. Well,in hindsight,I shouldn't have …

The Sherpa Screening Room: Larry Hankin Returns! (Pt 1)

I think it was inevitable, Rebels. Larry Hankin, a guy with almost 200 movie and tv roles (and Oscar nominee) and just as many stories behind those roles throughout a 6-decade career (and then some!) is capturing those momen…

The Sherpa Screening Room:Meet Barry Kesten!

For someone that you might recognize specifically as a celebrity, Barry has certainly had his share of unplanned celebrity encounters. I don't get to have many in-person encounters. For some odd reason, they always seem to h…

The Wisdom Files, Volume 1 !!

One of my long-planned tasks finally realized! I've been chatting on the Wisdom app for quite some time now, and have met some incredible people along the way. Now, I finally get to share some of my conversations with them, …

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Bill Willard!

To be honest, I never really knew too much about the Titanic in great detail. I tried to re-enact it at a nearby pier, but as you know, my Leo DiCaprio impression sounds more like Spongebob Squarepants, which does make it ki…

We're hopping in the "Movie Theatre Time Machine" and Nick Taber's driving (Thankfully)!

Welcome to another episode of "The Laryngitis Sessions"! A very special thanks to Lord Mr. Bruce for handling the intro/outro duties this time! Unfortunately, Nick's wife Caz couldn't join us (she was also part of the aband…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Dave Shecter!

Rebels, I really did have laryngitis at the time this episode was assembled! (Ok, you can stop cheering, you with the hat.) A special thanks to Super Fan Mike for his guest intro and outro (Even though it was kind of recorde…
