Please share this episode, and help save a young boy's life!!

I know. This isn't the sort of title you'd normally expect from an episode of Too Many Podcasts! Nor the interview that you will hear in this episode. But, imagine yourself in the place of my guest, David Ogman, for a moment…

We "Talk About Talk" with Communication Coach Dr. Andrea Wojnicki (between the laughing)!

This episode was just too much fun! I think Dr. Andrea and I were laughing about 15 minutes before we started recording, and 20 minutes after her interview. No small surprise, she's a wonderful conversationalist with a great…

World Traveller Gary Arndt of "Everything Everywhere Daily Podcast" makes it to Mount Podcastia!

When you "app"-solutely need a "Podcast Overhaul", Tiago is your go-to guy!

How many podcasters do you know with their own podcast, and a podcast app to go with it? That many? Wow, I've got to get out more...But I digress. I enjoyed talking with Tiago about this "casting of pods" world. I strongly r…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Timothy McLaughlin!

After our interview, Tim was telling me how he met Tom Hanks,when he was on "From The Earth To The Moon." He said talking to Tom Hanks is like talking with your neighbor. He said he really appreciated how Tom treats people s…

Casey Bozell shows us how to "Keep Classical Weird"! ( No bathing in the tuba, please...)

Yes, Rebels, this episode truly is a Season 6 favorite. Nothing like learning and laughing at the same time. Casey's podcast is a unique look at the world of classical music. And she's the first to come armed to a Sherpa in…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Wil Wilson!

So far this season, I've spoken to 2 guys with beards that could house the Sherpa-Lu Studio players! (Hmmm....that gives me an idea. ) Unfortunately, I didn't get to speak with Wil for very long, because he had other intervi…

It's John from "From Podcast to Vodcast" (...to Sherpa?)

I think if you've got a podcast and you want to bring it to a video platform, then John's show is what you need to listen to. And of course, if you're looking for an example of what not to do week, to week, congratulations, …

Too Many Podcasts! It's The Season 5 Postseason!

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Billy Van Zandt! (Season 5 Finale)

It's so cool when I get to interview such creative and multi-talented people for my season finales, don't you think? Billy Van Zandt certainly fits the bill. His publicist Jian, who was also a HUGE help in setting up the int…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Shannan Wilson! (featuring a bonus music track)

It was a real treat meeting Shannan. As I noted in the episode, I was sort of expecting someone who can play dramatic, intense roles to be super- serious. Wrong!! She was the type of fun guest I love interviewing in The Scre…

Cody Langley of "POPular Opinion" POPS in!

"I'm pretty Southern. You might need subtitles for me." So said today's guest. Hey, if Cody was able to understand me, I wouldn't need subtitles. I was surprised that I'd learn even more about Funko Pops, when I never even k…

We're "Goin' Hollywood" with JD and The Ghost! (and I forgot to pack my bronzer!)

So, who do you usually discuss movies with? Your friends,right? Whether it's a debate or a dialogue reference, those are best saved for your buddies. Which leads to a natural creation of 'Goin ' Hollywood " by JD and The Gho…

1/3 of the "Three Geeks Podcast" + 1/2 of "Mat Talk"=Jason Taylor!

Okay, so I'm not really good at math! And considering my mic went kerflooey right before the interview, not good at technology either (Update: Thanks to the folks at Samson for helping me out after the episode was recorded. …

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Steven Jay Rubin!

So, what could I, a sherpa who hasn't seen a single Bond movie, learn from the author of the encyclopedia of James Bond movies? A lot, apparently! Steve is a guy who has clearly done his homework, and knows how to share his …

Magician Anthony Presciutti Makes the Sherpa Disappear! (Wait, you were WISHING for That??!)

I grew up being really into magic for some time. I love close-up and a good card trick. There used to be "Magic" magazine, where you'd actually get blueprints to build stage illusions Unfortunately, my parents' homeowners' i…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Liz Priestley!

True story: Within 5 minutes of meeting on Zoom, Liz and I were already giggly. She liked my Paul McCartney impression, too. Or, maybe someone spiked my yak milk, I'm not sure. Liz is the type of person that you can't help …

Pigeon Hunting (No, not really!) with the Multi-Talented Katherine Brodsky of "Mind The Future"!!

What a great Christmas present for an interview! Soooo much fun talking with Katherine, who's got too many talents ("Too Many Talents!" Does the Sherpa smell a podcast sequel?) that I can list in this space. I don't think I'…

Why can Sarah Alcorn of "Ivy League Murders" hunt down clues, while the Sherpa lives life without one?

I got to speak to two amazing ladies this week, Rebels, and these interviews were so fascinating.! Today, I had the pleasure of speaking with Sarah Alcorn, a PI, who co-hosts this true crime podcast. The lady really knows a …

John Orlando's podcast is PVD-lightful! (Seriously,...I couldn't come up with a more clever title???!!)

This was a fun interview, Rebels. I felt John was a really interesting guest, and I'm glad you get to hear this interview. I, too, had aspirations of becoming a pro wrestler, but I kept putting the mask on backwards. Which m…

Buckle Up! It's time to visit William Walley in the "World of Walley"!

William Walley strikes me as a guy who could do a podcast solo and fill it with stories about his life. I'm sure he can draw upon his wealth of experiences quite easily. It was lots of fun getting to know him, even if he was…

Tuning In (and Geeking out) to "Earth Station One", with Mike Faber!!

Not to sound like a broken record (Um, doesn't a broken record make no sound?) but I love episodes where I get to learn stuff. Mike Faber was the perfect guy to introduce me to the "con" (convention) world. Especially for s…

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Richard Burgin!

Richard Burgin was really interesting to talk to. I won't give away too much, but you'll hear the inspiration behind "Fang", and how he used the tools and skills he has to get the project off the ground. I'm sure when his mo…

The Election's Over, but Vote for Middagh Goodwin, Anyway!

Before we started our interview, my first words to Middagh were, "Okay, I'm jealous." To which he responded, "Of what?" Well, I won't name names, but he was in a picture standing next to an 80's rocker I've been trying to ge…
