The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Director Todd Wolfson!
I always find that horror fans have that same kind of loyalty as country music fans. Minus the hats, trains, dogs, and saloons. But, when they create something interesting in the horror genre, you KNOW it's got to be interes…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet NASA scientist, Dr. Tanya Rogers!
A very interesting interview here, Rebels. As much as Tanya said that her story wasn't really inspiring, I think I'd have to respectfully disagree. She's a lady who's come this far in her life to achieve a goal that maybe pe…

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

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

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