#112 Drinking Partners Podcast- Day Bracey and Ed Bailey Talk about Fresh Fest             Some of my absolute favorite comedians and friends to talk to are back on my show. If you listened to the episode already, you probably heard me snorting from Ed Bailey and Day Bracey, hosts of  The Drinking Partners Podcast . We are all Epicast family, so we have been frequent guests on each other's shows f...

#111 Greywalker Metal Band- Brian Howe and Ricky Zimerman When someone asks me to describe metal music, I can't. I know zero, zip, ziltch about metal bands. I have a friend in Pittsburgh who is part of the Epicast family named Brian Howe that intrigued me when I found out he is the lead singer of a metal band in Pittsburgh called  Greywalker.  Brian and I have hung out occasionally, he always save...

#109 Author Thomas Sweterlitsch - The Gone World Pittsburgh author Thomas Sweterlitsch has been a guest on my show previously to talk about his book  Tomorrow and Tomorrow,  a post apocalyptic novel based in Pittsburgh. When I first read that book, I knew I loved the way Thomas's mind worked. It was a twisted, nostalgic, murder mystery, thriller, that plunged me deep into the world of science fict...

#108 Ready Player One Book to Movie Review I couldn't wait to release this one. Ready Player One is on of my all time favorite guilty pleasure books. I do not normally prefer audiobook over the feeling of holding a book in your hands, but I prefer the audiobook version of this read by Wil Wheaton. It is perfect in every way possible. When Ernest Cline wrote Ready Player One, he sold the rights to...

#107 Lee Terbosic I haven't gotten together with one of my favorite magicians,  Lee Terbosic  since my 100th podcast party. That was months ago, and I needed to have him on to see what he has been hiding up his sleeve (No pun intended). Not only did he have the chance to meet AND perform magic for Michael J Fox, that alone had me in awe of him. He also has been prepping and plotting for the reopen...

#106 Chelsea Handler I love a person who speaks their mind freely, openly and without caring what others may think. When I conjure up an image in my mind who fits this description, it is Chelsea Handler. On one hand,  Chelsea Handler  is a hilarious comedian, TV talk host, writer, producer, and general  jack of all trades . Which, by the way, does NOT mean you are master of none. It has been thoug...

#106 Weird Paul Opens Up His Home to Marta On The Move Do you love weird things? I do. It always peaks my interest when something, or someone sticks out from the normal every day hum drum life. This podcast guest is self proclaimed as being weird, it is even his name, and we are going to get to know him a little bit. His name is Weird Paul, and I got to visit him in his home of collected moments,...

#104 Lindsey Smith- Author of Eat Your Feelings Sooooooo tell me what diet you are on for the new year. Not on one? Doubtful. No really, it isn't like I don't believe you. I just... don't. New year, new you, right? That's what we all hope for, that a new year we will stick to our goals. Lose that extra 5, 10 or 20 lbs we tacked on in 2017, or from all those cookies we ate over the holidays. Guilty...

#104 Aaron Kleiber Aaron Kleiber has been on my show once before when I hosted a charity event at  Arcade Comedy.  He is a hilariously funny human being, and is about to take to the stage once more to record a special one hour live comedy show here in Pittsburgh at the  Carnegie Music Hall of Homestead  on March 3rd. You should be there, it is being recorded, and will hopefully air on national tel...

102 The Do's and Don'ts of Voluntouring It is the start of a new year. To me, that means new plans, new travels, and new experiences. A clean slate. One of my favorite things to think on when the new year hits is TRAVEL. If you are a follower, you probably could have guessed that. ;) WHERE TO? This is a question I hear, and get asked quite a bit. It is no secret that my favorite type of travel is...

#101 Aaron Watson I mentioned that 2017 was all about collaborations, and I meant it. It totally was, and that is just the start. those connections branch off and become strong bonds with people that relate to whatever project, work, idea, or tiny creative spark you have going inside your head.  Aaron Watson is one of those folk that I met in 2017 that had a wonderful attitude for bringing like mi...

#100 Episode Celebration LIVE Game Show! Hello 2018! Well, 2017 was rough and can seriously stick it. We are here now in 2018, and I started it right with a live game show of The Match Game called  "Marta Match"  complete with magic by Lee Terbosic, a musical drag show by Deep Violet, free craft beer, retro gaming, a butt load of laughter, merriment, a good cause like Big Brothers and Big Sisters...

#99 Big Brothers and Sister of Pittsburgh Holiday Special Don't you wish when you were in high school you could talk to someone older, who wasn't your parents, or your teachers. Someone who was just there to give advice, without judgement. Maybe an outside perspective into a job you were eyeing up, but weren't sure was the right fit for you. That is only a small part of what Big Brothers Big Siste...

#98 Kahmeela Adams Ever have a friend who is relentless about you meeting a person they know.  You hear, "Oh! You don't know her/him? You have to! You two are so much alike!" You then dismiss said friend, because you have heard it before, and it really doesn't turn out to be true. Sometimes... it does, enter Kahmeela Adams. Kahmeela and I met for coffee after a friend's urging, and the time flew....

#97 Patrick Cannon I met Patrick over 10 years ago when we both starred in a musical at Robert Morris College. The musical was 1776.  Patrick  starred as John Adams, and I played Charles Thomson( Yes I played a man, and slayed it. btw). This was a very magical show for everyone involved. In fact, both my brother and sister starred in the musical as well, and the entire cast grew very close. Years...

#96 True Spooky Stories of Pittsburgh Part III LIVE! We are back for True Spooky Stories of Pittsburgh Part III! If you have tuned into  Marta On The Move Podcast  in the past, the lead up to Halloween always has this episode included. Usually, John Schalcosky from  The Odd, Mysterious, and Fascinating History of Pittsburgh  comes over, we hang out in Pj's, invite a few friends and chill out to re...

#95 Angelmakers- Songs For Female Serial Killers What is it about serial killers that makes us interested in them? My Netflix account is full with documentaries about them.  Thousands of books have been written about them.  Even I, at a young age was obsessed with all the information I could find. Why they did what they did, and more so, HOW could they do it. In my lead up to Halloween I found som...

#94 Castle Blood Pittsburgh has it's fair share of horror attractions, ranging from hay rides, to scare houses, forrest trails, and much more. I have not, however, found an attraction that combines all of my favorites things into one... until now. Castle Blood  was introduced to me recently by a fan on my Facebook page.  He suggested that the experience was right up my alley, boy was he right! The...

#93 Steve Rudzinski We are officially into the Halloween season my friends, and you know what that means.  The lead up to Halloween on my podcast is one of my favorite times of the year. I love featuring everything spooky, scary, and downright fearful these two months, and I have some great episodes coming up, starting with this one. Steve Rudzinski  is a director of horror films in Pittsburgh. We...

#92 Darcy Lyle and Rachel Dobos Facing your fears is never easy, and we as humans tend to run in the opposite direction rather than look them straight in the eye.  I have always been a fan of running towards them.  It started with my first solo plane ride overseas for my volunteer project, then to scuba diving, and recently indoor rock climbing. I have noticed as I get older, I am starting to have...

#91 Kenny Gould I recently met  Kenny Gould  on a shoot of a TV pilot.  I was playing the part of the host of the show, and Kenny, was one of my judges.  A very picky judge is what he had to portray, and I soon realized that the person he was playing on the show, was not his true character.  Kenny is ridiculously funny, intelligent, and down to earth. Not only that, but he is self made successful...

#90 Kellee Maize and Jimmy McNichol Kellee Maize  is a sensation on the internet.  This white female rapper, singer, and song writer has over 9 million downloads, and continues to grow that number daily.  Maize is the number one person that pops up in your browser when you search for female rappers, and is about to release her 7th album since 2008.  This one woman powerhouse is far more than just...

#88 Beth Caldwell  We all get pushed and pulled in different directions in our lives.  Usually we do it to ourselves.  We have thousands of thoughts going through our brains every day.  How do you focus, and better yet find your drive, and passion in life.  I myself have so many ideas going through my head at one time, and I find myself sometimes getting a bit frazzled about balancing my work life...

#88 Rico Gagliano Rico Gagliano  is creator, and co host of  Dinner Party Download , and I was lucky enough to snag him as he was passing through Pittsburgh to chill with me for a podcast session.  This meant a lot to me, guys.  Dinner Party Download was one of two podcasts ( Nerdist  being the other), that inspired me to start my own show. I love DPD, and still listen to this day (If you don't yo...
