Brandy is ABSOLUTELY one of my favorite people in Podcastia! She still gets a kick out of the fact that I had her doing cartoon voices. But if you love hearing people speak with authentic passion, look for her on social media. You'll be glad you did! _______________________________________________________________________________________________________- As you will hear, Brandy is a lot of fun to talk to. Plus, I had equally as much fun as a guest on her show, "A Voice to be Reckoned With." I fo...

I think that this episode fits the "trifecta of true crime guests", if there ever was one. Phil is a profiler, podcast host, and author. He shared a lot of information, but there's way more to be found, by checking out his book (link below). So, check out some serial killer myths as they are exploded, and later, The Sherpa talks social media, and changes coming to Sherpalution ( none which involve tariffs, we promise). Thanks for coming on the show, Phil!. Follow Phil (not like a stalker, PLEASE...

Great news! You can still catch new episodes of "The Binge-Watchers Podcast". John is still cranking out episodes and offering his perspective on today's popular movies, among other things. Definitely worth the listen!! ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Day 3!! Okay, I'll start by answering the burning question. Even though it's an audio-only podcast (for your own good) John did an e...

Almost halfway through the season, and while I've been very happy with the guests that have been on so far, this episode is a real favorite. Kyndle was so much fun to talk with, and she has a really interesting story to tell, too! I'm sure her upcoming release will make a lot of people sit up and take notice of her immense talent. (And if they are already sitting up, they will stand! And do cartwheels! Too much? Sorry...) But as promised, here are some links where you can get a sample of Kyndle'...

Horror Fans! It's a throwback interview with horror director Colin Bressler. You can catch some of his spooooooooky stuff online or on streaming networks! ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Day 2! I've gotta hand it to a guy like Colin Bressler. From a self-described "scaredy cat" to a director of horror movies that will scare the you-know-what out of you, he certainly has come f...

I guess I really didn't know as much about grill cleaning as I thought, until speaking to Jeffrey. I guess it's time to throw out that yak carcass that I left on the rotisserie. (I'd call his company, but I don't know if I'll get charged for the vultures flying around it. How embarrassing...) But his story isn't exactly what I expected it to be, which made it all the more interesting. Plus, I'm so glad that I got to actually talk about podcasting! Hey, you don't think other podcasters were avoid...

There have been a few interviews that I've done with voiceover actors, and I always find them so interesting, because of the unique part they play in the entertainment field.

The first thing I had to ask Daniel before our interview was how to pronounce the escapee's name. "Just think 'Chasin' ", was his reply. This was a fascinating interview for me. Daniel has led quite the interesting life, as you will hear. Even with his connection to the events he writes about, he really brings such a unique perspective. This is one of the interviews I call a standout...even if you have to hear my voice on it. Thanks for coming on the show, Daniel! Here's the Amazon link to "Chas...

Thanks so much to Dr. Bramante for this interview! You can follow him on social media for more pointers or buy his book (see below), but I think this interview really lays groundwork for aspiring actors...or even folks venturing out into a new career, don't you think?

I'm not one to leave "inside jokes" in my interviews, so just for reference; 1. "Beautiful Downtown Burbank" was referenced in the 1960's/'70's tv show, "Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In" which aired YEARS before Rich was born; and 2, I opened the wrong video application to record the interview, but luckily, Rich appeared...like magic! So, speaking pf magic, be sure to check out Rich's show on Tubi, "Culture Shock". where you will see much magic, and of course, be amazed. If you haven't caught it y...

A throwback to a COVID era interview! It's funny-I'd seen Joe a while back on General Hospital, twice playing seedy characters, yet when I interviewed, ghe was definitely one of the most down to earth actors I'd met. There are a few that fall on this list, but somebody better cast this guy as a regular on a tv show-the tv world is missing out on a true talent! _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________...

I hope that the fact that we've covered 2 true crime editors who write about murders in Michigan isn't making you reconsider your vacation time!

Update: Patrick has got a new podcast ( "The Free Couch" )going on, and is still happily married to the lady mentioned in the interview. And he's a super-nice guy,too! It's funny that Patrick Harney went from a guy who had no interest in being in a school production to a guy involved in promoting a movie he's involved with. He was talking about the importance of being a good person, and I could tell how important that still is to him. His fiance is certainly a lucky lady. He's got a realistic vi...

Or any of the 150 movie or tv appearances that he's made (we're not kidding....).

He's a really down-to-earth actor with a true dedication to his craft. You can hear how much he love to act in our interview. And he'll be singing soon, too! When I was watching his clip on "1000 Ways to Die", it made me wonder about a bizarre death for the Sherpa. I'm imagining being eaten by Goldfish...

True crime time again, Rebels! And what an ideal way to round out Season 13 with a true crime story that has to be heard to be believed. Like so many of the authors that I've interviewed, you can hear how much time and research DeLani put into creating her book. And who knew that she was an 80's fan, like me? So if you like your true crime with a side of political intrigue (or extra pepperoni), be sure tio grab a copy of The Dumond Affair . The Amazon link is below, but you can get it wherever b...
