The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet musical artist, Autonex!

May 08, 2024 10:00 - 33 minutes - 46.3 MB

This is your chance, Rebels! Have a listen to the interview with an up and coming artist, who's bringing his unique musical style to the masses. I don't know much about techno, dubstep, or bass and drum. I thought they were the 2000's version of The 3 Stooges. (Just ask your parents.) I had suggested to Autonex after our interview about collaborating with previous guest OK Cello. Now that's a combo that could upend the music world! Thanks for coming on the show, Autonex! Here's the link to...

Sherpa Selects: Now boarding! The return of Allison Sharpe from "Travel Snacks"!

May 04, 2024 11:00 - 27 minutes - 63.9 MB

She's back! With snacks! And an announcement! I must confess that I wasn't happy with the audio quality of our first interview( as much as I enjoyed the interview), but that's my fault as an inexperienced podcaster. So as far as having Allison back for a "remix"...wish granted! Thank you, Allison! Just as wonderful 19 episodes later!! Take a listen to the show to hear about Allison's next endeavor, Plus! tater tots in the Vortex! Baby news(noooo, not Allison...) ! Can you fly to Kombucha if ...

Sherpa Selects:Robert Bear, of "Invention Stories" makes a "patented" appearance at the Sherpa Chalet!

May 01, 2024 10:00 - 44 minutes - 61.2 MB

My interview this week comes back to the States. My talk with Robert Bear was very interesting and educational. I found it particularly amazing that a self professed failed inventor found his success hosting a top-ranked invention podcast. (Is that what they call reinvention?) He gave a lot of great advice in the interview, but there's more to be found on his podcast.  He told me that he's happy to make his show his legacy, so future inventors can be successful. So far, so good, Robert! Plus...

Sherpa Selects:"Walking the Shadowlands" with Marianne, and talking about the paranormal (and her podcast)!!

April 27, 2024 11:00 - 35 minutes - 48.5 MB

From 2019: This one is definitely a fan favorite! It was also my first "spooky podcast" interview, and Marianne was a fascinating guest. So, gave a listen, and don't get too spooked out. And check out Marianne's podcast! ____________________________________________________________________________________ Who else but me gets the bright idea to record a podcast about the paranormal at 11:00 PM on a Saturday night? When Marianne and I were done, I was worried I would hear "GETTTTT OUTTTT!!!"...

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Okorie "Ok Cello" Johnson!

April 24, 2024 10:00 - 37 minutes - 51.8 MB

We could call this episode, "So You Think You Know Cello?" But I'd say after you hear it, you may have a new appreciation for it. Okorie is certainly a leader in the vanguard to make classical instruments more accessible for music lovers everywhere. This gentleman is certainly onto something, in a world of ever-changing musical tastes. Please check out his website, https://www.okcello.com , or follow any of his socials , @okcello to learn more...and hear more! Thanks for coming on the show, ...

There will be CHOCOLATE! A fun chat with John Kapos (aka Chocolate Johnny) about social media!

April 20, 2024 11:00 - 54 minutes - 75.1 MB

(PLEASE NOTE: This is from 2019, so there is no contest to win Perfection Chocolate. And we already had a winner. And I didn't eat the chocolate and send an empty box, regardless of what the conspiracy theorists say!) But enjoy this interview, and imagine (or actually eat)you're having some deelish chocolate. John has some really insightful stuff to say in this interview. And a thanks to Lord Mr. Bruce for the intro, too! _____________________________________________________________________...

Don't Touch That Dial!(?)It's Gregory Joseph, of "The Mean Machine Radio Show"!!

April 17, 2024 10:00 - 1 hour - 91.9 MB

Gregory has so many more stories, so we've barely scratched the surface in this interview. But what a super nice guy! He really wants his show to be a voice for the voiceless, so there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. Especially while you're having fun along the way! Thanks for coming on the show. Gregory!

Sherpa Selects:A supersized interview with a super-nice supermodel/actress, Jasmin Shojai! !!

April 13, 2024 11:00 - 1 hour - 109 MB

My first supermodel interview! We should call this the start of the "Down Under Trilogy", given the guests in the next 2 Saturday episodes are also from Australia, and New Zealand. How was I able to get an interview with a supermodel? My mom signed the permission slip, of course! _________________________________________________________________________ (Warning: This Sherpa Sheet makes continuous use of the word "super"...in case that word easily offends you. But listen to the interview wi...

Drop and Give Me 25 (Minutes)! It's a chat with Ana of the "GBBA" podcast!!!

April 10, 2024 10:00 - 33 minutes - 46.2 MB

Not your typical personal trainer interview, I promise! Ana has led a verrrrry interesting life so far, so that made the interview so much fun. A listen to her podcast will have you looking and thinking about your physical well-being in a new way! (Finally, I can stop drinking pickle juice? Not that anyone advised me to....) Anyway, have a listen to a fun and inspiring chat. Thanks for coming on the show, Ana! Ana's info: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090548641652t; I...

Sherpa Selects: "Greener Thoughts" with Na'ilah (from 2019)!

April 06, 2024 11:00 - 39 minutes - 54.4 MB

Talk about pretty good timing! With Earth Day soon to be upon us, it's a perfect time to revisit my interview with Na'ilah . Hope you enjoy it! _________________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Sherpa Sheet! It's the "Save the Earth" edition. I wanted to be sure I would pronounce Na'ilah's name correctly for the interview (I know it bugs me when people mispronounce "sherpa"..or "Jim"). She prefers the pronunciation "NY-lah..like the Lion King." And od...

Sherpa Selects:The Money-Making Episode: Apple Crider of "Young Smart Money"!

April 03, 2024 10:00 - 46 minutes - 64.6 MB

Although there are no new episodes of "Young Smart Money", you can catch Apple on the Apple Crider YouTube channel . And he's still talking finance! This was an interesting one, Rebels-hope you enjoy it! $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ If I could bottle and sell Apple Crider's energy from our interview alone, I'd already be on track to making money. He's definitely someone who is wise beyond his years in matters of marketing and personal finance. If you...

Sherpa Selects: Zachary Smith is a man on a "Mission 4 Health"....really, he is!

March 30, 2024 11:00 - 31 minutes - 44.3 MB

As with a lot of my Season 1 shows, (unfortunately) there are no new episodes of Zach's podcast. But if you're looking for physical motivation and spiritual inspiration, check out his shows! ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ It was a real pleasure speaking with Zach for this week's episode. Talk about someone with a real passion for life, and a spiritual connection to what he does for others. Super easy to listen to his show, too, since it's in easy 1-m...

Soap Operas! Cartoons! Theatre! It's a few of the "Lifeslices with Steve Fisher"!!

March 27, 2024 10:00 - 1 hour - 84.9 MB

Another fun interview here, Rebels. Steve was a real treat to interview. He's certainly led an interesting life, and he gets to continue it with a podcast featuring interesting people. I like the notion of having close access to exiting the country, too. (Of course, I might have to keep it a secret from the citizens of Mount Podcastia... I still need my "Corn Chips of the Month", you know.) Thanks for coming on the show, Steve! Steve's info: X: @Lifeslices1, Facebook: @LifeslicesPodcast; Li...

Sherpa Selects: The Voiceover Takeover! A conversation with our own voiceover guy, Bruce Goldberg!

March 23, 2024 11:00 - 1 hour - 165 MB

From 2019: it's the "origin story"of our own Lord Mr. Bruce! I apologize for the audio quality of the interview, which apparently degraded to sounding like a bad Cher song. (It was from 2019, maybe it had the COVID virus?) Anyway, here's where you get the story of how Bruce came to be such an important part of the show! Thanks for everything, Lord Mr. Bruce! ____________________________________________________________________________ Bonus-sized episode this week, and for good reason! Bruc...

It's Julie Marty-Pearson of "The Story of My Pet" podcast! (AKA The Sherpa Gets De-Wormed!)

March 20, 2024 10:00 - 42 minutes - 58.6 MB

I'm off the leash!! I don't really get the chance to discuss pets on the show, so Julie was the ideal guest. She really shed a lot of light on animal fostering and adoption, as well as what goes on in shelters. So please check out "The Story of My Pet" podcast, or if you have your own idea for a show, check out her podcasting show," Podcast Your Story Now". (I'm thinking "Amazing Yak Stories"....)

Sherpa Selects: Whooooo are this week's guests? Why, Amanda and Dave from "The Owlish Folk", of course!

March 16, 2024 11:00 - 35 minutes - 49.3 MB

Without a doubt, this one was one of my absolute favorite episodes. Not only from Season 1, but out of the over 300. Dave and Amanda were a blast to speak with. Sadly, the podcast hasn't put out new episodes for a while, but the ones that are there are fascinating. Check them out, and I'm sure you'll agree! Thanks, and miss you, Owls!! Also, it's the beginning of Lord Mr. Bruce's voiceovers!! ________________________________________________________________________ Welcome back to the Sherp...

ASMR! BTS! WWE! All in The Sherpa's Alphabet soup!

March 13, 2024 10:00 - 20 minutes - 27.9 MB

Apologies for the SEO experiment, Rebels. We're really not discussing the items in the title, but I'm were you expecting intelligent commentary from me? Today's just a quickie episode to update you on the Sherpa Chalet happenings, and of course, "Sherpa Samples"! So while you're here, have a listen, subscribe, and review! Thanks!

Sherpa Selects: Stacy the Kid talks about joy and Tsoro in his podcast, "Jaunts and Faults"!

March 09, 2024 12:00 - 28 minutes - 26.1 MB

2019! This episode! I think this was 1) When I stopped writing down everything and stopped with the scripts, and 2) I think I actually was using a microphone. The beginning of the sound sherpalution, Rebels! Stacy was in his car for this interview (not driving!). I found him to be really interesting...have a listen, ok?___________________________________________________________________________ I guess we could call this edition of the Sherpa Sheet, "When the Sherpa met the Kid". And I certa...

Good News! It's the return of Content Creator, Deanne Gustafson!

March 06, 2024 11:00 - 27 minutes - 38.3 MB

If you check a recent "Sherpa Selects", you'll hear the original interview that Deanne and I did in 2019. I think it's great that she has been able to parlay her talents into this new venture. But you'll see , 5 years (and another child) later, she's still a lot of fun, and she still presents a realistic version of what she does. For the record, I'm not that great on TikTok. Maybe it's the Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods background music I use? (Oh, just ask your parents, already!) Anyway chec...

Sherpa Selects:Michael Wood gives us 366 Reasons to enjoy the "1 Year Audio Bible Experience"

March 02, 2024 12:00 - 29 minutes - 41.2 MB

I've got it on good authority that this is a favorite episode of Lise Donnelly Gizzie, so this one is for you, my friend! I enjoyed interviewing Michael and his perspective on creating a religious-themed podcast. have a listen! _________________________________________________________________________ Hmmmm....they say you're not supposed to discuss religion in mixed company. But after interviewing Michael Wood, I would think differently. Here's a talented guy, who wears many hats, who uses...

February 17, 2024 12:00 - 19 minutes - 27.1 MB

Sherpa Selects time with one of my Top 10 episodes! Apologies for the dated reference in the show notes below. But this WAS my first foray into discussing RPGs (Role-playing games). "Thornvale" is airing episodes as of this date, by the way. So bring your multi -sided die and your headphones! ___________________________________________________________________________ First things first.

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

February 14, 2024 11:00 - 35 minutes - 49.3 MB

It's the conclusion of my conversation with Lord Mr. Bruce. We did veer off a bit into a political discussion, but I edited out a portion, because I don't want listeners commenting about my guests' politics, whether they agree or not. (But, truth be told, I finally convinced him he couldn't vote for Martin Van Buren,anyway...) But we veered into even more topics, which was ultimately ended by a phone call. (I hope it wasn't those auto warranty people.) Anyway, I hope you enjoy that chat, an...

Sherpa Selects: Deanne Goodman of " In Happier News" is bringing positivity to the Sherpa Chalet!

February 10, 2024 12:00 - 26 minutes - 24.7 MB

Wow, did I actually pony up and buy a mic for this one? The audio improvement started here? Deanne no longer does this podcast...but...you get to see her smiling face as an Amazon influencer nowadays. And I'm sure this episode must have a good memory for her, since she makes an incredible announcement!!! And on my podcast!!! _________________________________________________________________ It's a week about positivity! Let's start this week's Sherpa Sheet with a story. When I went to check...

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

February 07, 2024 11:00 - 43 minutes - 59.7 MB

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 friend, so it's beyond me why...ummm never mind, you'll hear the story. But the conversation you're hearing took place late on a Sunday night ,PTZ (Podcastia Time Zone). These are the types of conversations we have,really. Just jumping around subjects and laughing a lot.

But have a listen here to our interview! She's super nice! __________________________________________________________________________ We'll start this week's Sherpa Sheet with a behind the scenes story.

Podcast Excess? Jordan Runtagh brings "Too Much Information" to "Too Many Podcasts!"

January 31, 2024 11:00 - 42 minutes - 49.3 MB

(Please note: No cigar-chomping studio executives were harmed during the recording of this episode) Although we don't use video to broadcast the show, you could see how much Jordan loves his job, and doing his podcast, along with the other projects he's involved with. (Okay, maybe you couldn't see it, but play along, will ya?) But, you CAN tell "TMI" is a labor of love for both him and co-host Alex Heigl, and when the hosts are having so much fun, you will,too. And that's why you should subs...

But have a listen! ____________________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Sherpa Sheet! This time around it's a (bit more serious than usual) chat with David Battaglia about his podcast, "Perception Is Reality." David was a pleasure to speak with, and (I'll say it ag...

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 as all get out. You'll see that his perspective on his career wins and losses is as a person who knows who to take everything in stride. (Also, a guy you'd want on your team on "Trivia Night" at your local pub!) So, wherever it is that you know him from, he's certainly s...

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

December 27, 2023 11:00 - 29 minutes - 40.7 MB

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 so well known in his industry. This one's almost heartbreaking to hear, but it serves as a reminder to be hopeful and stand by the ones you love, even during a devastating illness. Thanks so much for coming on the show, Kelly!

December 13, 2023 11:00 - 32 minutes - 45.5 MB

And we're back! And with a really interesting chat about the realities of reality TV! True story: I asked Troy if he knew any people on that Vanderpump show, to tell them to stop making podcasts! I counted at least 6000. But, in the meantime, this was a really fun and interesting chat. You can imagine how great one of Troy's speaking events would be. Thanks for coming on the show, Troy!

It's a "star-studded" interview with astrophysicist Dr. Paul Sutter of "Ask A Spaceman!" (From June 2021)

December 06, 2023 11:00 - 46 minutes - 106 MB

Oh, the trials and tribulations of being a podcaster! True Story: I had decided earlier in the season that I wanted to do an episode about the universe. I saw a few astrophysicists listed on podcasting sites. Sent out invitations. No response (Were they lost in space? *rim shot*) I was just about to give up, when I found out about Dr. Sutter's podcast. I contacted him through his website (below) and bang! (Not a Big Bang, of course) Podcaster goal realized. AND I'm a listener of his show, to...

I'll do my best with these updated show notes.) Happy shopping! (Please don't buy me a tie again.) Also, the social links mentioned are now @sherpalution . ________________________________...

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

November 22, 2023 11:00 - 18 minutes - 26.3 MB

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 them a break, and do a solo show. So, get caught up on the show, and check out this edition of "Sherpa Samples",too!!

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Singer Dani Hagan!

November 15, 2023 11:00 - 37 minutes - 51.9 MB

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 hear on this episode will indicate, Dani is certainly a force to be reckoned with in the music world. It was interesting to learn how her synesthesia affects her love for music, as well. (What color do listeners of this podcast see when they hear me? I'm guessing plaid?)...

True confession: I'm not allowed to look at any woman in a bikini without a signed permission slip. But, at least I can listen to Jaimie's podcast ("Strictly Stalking") or audition for a movie where she's the casting director (provided neither one of us is in a bikini. Fair is fair, you know...). But, as you can tell, she's a lady who certainly keeps herself busy with many ventures. And it was lots of fun to get to chat with her on these topics. Thanks for coming on the show, Jaimie!

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 blowing out a hamstring. But, I really think Jim is a natural for podcasting, even though the actual lifting is different. So, if you're curious about up-and-coming entrepreneurs, check out this show from an up-and -coming podcaster! Thanks for coming on the show, Jim! (Not...

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 the inspiration for "I Talk To Ghosts". This may be YOUR next favorite spooky podcast, Rebels! Throw in a dash of ghost stories, Jennifer's perssonal haunted experiences (and as you'll hear, there's quite a few), and some spooky atmosphere, and voila! A podcast potion fo...

Mela Borawski of the"Belle,Book,&Candle" podcast leaves us "spellbound" for Halloween!

First, I apologize for my staticky mic in the beginning. Was a curse, cast on me? Nah, just a hinky wire. But I digress. I honestly didn't know what to expect when i arranged the interview with Mela. But as a surprise, it was certainly pleasant. I love it when I get the chance to learn about interesting things like witchcraft ( No Sinatra song here, but hum along, if you must). Is it a scary interview? Well I think it's more interesting than scary, personally. But have a listen. At the vert ...

It's not often I get to speak with a student of a coach that I've interviewed (in this case, previous guest David Thompson.). Here's an interesting interview with a true up-and comer in the acting world, as well as the....no, wait, you'll have to hear the interview to find out the rest!
