Podcast Picks with Jim the Podcast Sherpa

So you want to talk impressions? Not to brag, but I have the best impression of our own Sherpa Chalet mailman, "Winky" Baristroikas. I will only do it on the show if I get enough requests on the Sherpalution social media pages. And when Winky's lawyers leave me alone. That's the impression that I get. Hey. look, I'm quoting the Mighty Mighty Bosstones! I don't do an impre...

Simple life lesson, Rebels: If someone says " I spent a lot of my childhood in cemeteries", you KNOW you're in for an interesting conversation! Such was the case when I got to meet Brandon. Although(, as of yet,) he hasn't had immediate contact with any ghost, spirit, monster, or Amway salesman, he's still got plenty of spooky stories for you on his podcast. (I still wonder i...

I didn't realize that after all of these episodes, I never really had the opportunity to talk about UFO's; but as you'll hear in the interview, I was fortunate to interview Brian to finally do so. The premise for "The UFO Movie That THEY Don't Want You To See" certainly sounds enticing for UFO enthusiasts and non-enthusiasts alike. But I'm sure you'll be quite enl...

And now, Rebels, meet writer, actor, comic impressionist, vocalist, knife thrower (ummm, not sure about that last one)Debbie Sue Goodman. Thanks for coming on the show, Debbie Sue! Debbie Sue's info: Website: stillsingle.org X: @StillSingle2; Instagram: @debbiesueg3; Facebook:@debbie.s.goodman.9; YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCL72pw7QAQAIrKybyMfs69A More thanks: Publicist Extraordin...

My conversation with David strongly reinforces the advice that we've gotten here from so many actors. Remember all those "W's", aspiring actors! (And it's only "woohoo" when you get the part, by the way! Have a listen! Thanks, David, for coming on the show! David's website: www.davidthompsoncoaching.co Facebook: @actingcoachdavid1 ; X: @davidwaynethom6 . More th...

So, every time I have a podcaster on, I always ask them for podcast recommendations. But I realize it's been a while since I got to talk about some of my faves. So, I present to you, Rebels of the Sherpalution, the Sherpa Podcast Playlist! Next week, I'll be back with a guest! (Unless this episode scares them away???) The Sherpa's Faves: The Newsworthy Money Rehab Be Wealthy and Smart...

Another guest from the Wisdom app, you say? Yesiree, Bob! (Although I don't know who Bob is, but I know he's not my uncle, you there in the U.K.) This interview was borne from an absolutely fascinating conversation on the Wisdom app (which you can participate or listen in on),which we got to continue here. Andrew's podcast is a straightforward, honest, analysis of manhood, and what it...

Here's a guy who started with local interviews, which grew into a larger show with even more well-known folks. (My show only becomes larger by eating more and standing on its toes.) And this is the episode that features...nutmeg! I don't even think Joe Rogan or "This American Life" does that. Maybe Ben Shapiro can talk about it with that unnatural sped-up voice? One can only drea...

(Note: Amazon has announced that the AMP app will be shutting down 10/31/2023. NOT due to anything I did...I think. I am hoping for a new platform to be announced, and will keep you informed of any "online deejaying" I hope to do in the future.) Even though it initially made a semi-splash, doing "Too Many 80's Songs" was so much fun for me ,being such an 80's music fan....

So here's a treat for you, Rebels! A few years back, I did a little side project called "The Expert Factory", where I had folks come on to give advice. (Which explains why you don't hear too much of me on this episode!) If you've been a listener for a while, you'll know that Allison has always been one of my favorite people in Podcastia. She was my first interview, and th...

It's under 20 minutes today! Since I could not get either of my "hoped for" interviews recorded in enough time, I figured it was time for a mini-episode. So, it's about what's going on in the Sherpa Chalet, and of course, with "Sherpa Samples." Have a listen!! These are the podcasts featured in "Sherpa Samples" The Ezra Klein Show PBD Podcast I Beg Your Pa...

Multi-talented AND multi-instrumental! In the short time that we had our interview, you can really tell how much Lisa Marie cares about her craft, and how much she does to follow her vision, whether it be audio or video. But I think we need to hold a recruiting fair to help her find more women musicians to collaborate with. (I would gladly help, but it appears the Lovely Sherpa Bride has me handcu...

Warning: Some strong language. (Does that make us heathens? Eh, probably not...) This was a great opportunity to get to hear an actual story of belonging to a religious cult, and the ladies were just incredible guests. (Super nice, too!) It's interesting when you're a teenager and you wonder what your life will be like 30-40 years from that point. I'm sure Tracey and Sharon wouldn'...

(*Bit of Strong Language in this one. Surprised? Didn't think so...) So, Jesse texted me (yes, he has my number!) ,saying, "I have a podcast, give me publicity!" Done, my friend! I had so much fun with him on our first interview (but The Cranberries still might be a bit sore...) ,so I could only imagine what his podcast is like. And to all of you who love geek culture, I say, "...

Show of hands! Who wants to go away on a trip? (No, not with me, don't worry. Besides, you're raising your hand for an audio medium?) You know how I love educational and entertaining interviews, and this one doesn't disappoint. Jared's website is truly a labor of love that can end up saving you some big buckaroos (money, not cowboys). And you'll learn in this interview the best...

Victoria is the writer, director, and lead actor in "Heir of the Witch" , a horror/psychological thriller , with an August 2023 release. Let's get to know her, the TRUE story behind the creation of the movie, and her experiences while making the movie.. (Special thanks to previous guest Chip White and Pat Moore of Pasha Entertainment...you guys know what you did!) Thanks for coming o...

Well, Rebels, it's time for the mini-episode where I get to give thanks to all of those who made this season what it was. (What was it? Honestly, no idea.) If you're new to the show, simply subscribe to check out what you've missed. Our episodes are all over the place (See below). I've really got to clean up the Sherpa Chalet! Until then, we'll see you next week, for the Season...

(Since this interview is about true crime, there are mentions of violence. Please take care when listening, if this is an emotional trigger.) Wow! What a way to wrap up season 10! Robert's email saying he wanted to do the interview came just at the nick of time. Otherwise, you'd hear me rambling on about my favorite toenails. Robert has won over 50 awards for journalism, and has witnessed...

Yep Rebels, another quick episode for ya. Stay fir the "Sherpa Samples", leave with a cannoli. Or something like that. In addition to mentioning the websites an apps I mentioned aren't sponsors of the show, and are just recommendations by my experience, I also forgot to apologize for some of the clicking sounds on my edit...ugh! But that's not the fault of what I'm using. (Th...

At long last! A peek behind the curtain at Sherpa-Lu Studios! (Oops, sorry, madam, wrong curtain...). Anyway, these are the websites and apps that I've used to create this show, and also, some for you to check out: Podcast Platforms: Spotify for Podcasts; YouTube Microphones I've used: Samson Q2 and Blue Snowball Recording: Skype, Zoom, Riverside.fm, Adobe Podcast, Zencaster.com, Cleanfeed...

There are SOOOOO many different kinds of healthcare professionals out there that deserve this kind of praise (and from a better podcast,too!) Fortunately , I was able to chat with Tonia, who provided a lot of insight into the nursing field. Please have a listen to her story, and about the amazing charity that she has in the works. While you're doing that, I'll be visiting South Brooklyn to...

So, how cool is Bennett? Keeping audiences ( and me, in this interview) laughing and entertained, Keeping Woody Allen off the toilet, and keeping a million dollars from John Hughes! I'm lucky if I can keep an imaginary secret. (I heard it from Homer Simpson himself. I think..) This was a fun one to do, unfortunately during a writer's strike, but what are ya gonna do, as they say? But have a listen...

As you can tell, with a guest like Don, interviews are super easy, as he's always got a great story to tell, about a wide array of topics, too! Unfortunately, I couldn't get to the link in which i appeared on his show, "The Life", but trust me, given my level of comedic talent, it's best that you're protected, like Don does with weapons! The guy seriously has sooo much ta...

I guess that I can relate to Fanacek's tale of being babysat by the TV. I'm sure most of you can relate to sharing a crib with a 24" RCA, right? (Just me? Ummm... never mind.) But TV plays an important part of most people's lives. It feeds your passions, makes you laugh or cry, or makes you want to stand up for a cause. And those are just the commercials! But his podcast is certai...

Rebels, at a certain age, I guess it's tricky to make new friends. (I still don't understand why I get so much flak for handing out applications. My rejection letters are highly regarded, you know...) It was interesting getting to know Scott, and hearing the story of how the podcast came into existence. We're going to have to do something about that podcast that keeps them from winning...
