On a comic couch? "Dannylize This", with Daniel "Papi" Gonzalez!
(WARNING: A little bit of profanity in this episode...) You know, sometimes it seems like it's open season on comics after "that slapping incident" we've all seen. Which incidentally, will be the LAST time I attempt to help …

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Travis Dunn!
Lately, I've been stumbling across guests who found a new course a bit later in life. (Well, I'd be stumbling anyway.) Travis fits that bill, being dared to attend an acting class, and subsequently getting bitten by the acti…

You Rebels know how much I love it when I get to learn new things. And, such was the case with interviewing John. Personally, I've never been hypnotized. But if it was, would I be persuaded to sound talented and professional…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet CJ and Lorrisa Julianus!
It's always fun when I have two guests on at once. It's also unique for me when I get to tell said guests, "Hey, I saw your movie!" And the police don't get involved! Such was the case this time around for your Sherpa. Befor…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Michael Baker!
So, would you buy a used car from this man? Of course, he's been on my podcast! There was probably so much more interesting stuff that I could have found out about Michael Baker, in addition to what he already covers. Regard…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Michael Lloyd!
It's the first "Sherpa Screening Room" of the new season. And I got to have an interesting chat with former soldier-turned-actor Michael Lloyd. All that talk about New Orleans cuisine definitely worked up an appetite! Michae…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Reece Brown!
I probably say this a million times, but here's an actor to watch. (And of course, I'm right a million times, but that's beside the point...) I really enjoyed talking to Reece. Behind the scenes fact, after the interview end…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Ashlie Lawson!
Sometimes, I think I can be a bit silly with my guests. But Ashlie didn't seem to mind, and had fun with the silliness She's a very talented actress, with a chameleon's style on playing different types of roles. She's defini…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Michael Myers!
There are some of you out there too young to remember The Vietnam War. Yet, there are still those who are trapped in the painful memories of it. I was too young to really comprehend what it was all about. I do remember heari…

Comic Jason Pollock says, "Hi, I'm Jason", and it gets sillier from there!
This was NOT the typical "Too many Podcasts!" interview, I'll admit. I usually don't end up discussing medical procedures when I'm getting poked and prodded in my, well, you'll hear about it...But Jason was such a fun guest,…
