Podcast Picks with Jim The Podcast Sherpa
Sherpa Selects:Podcaster Brandy Singleton ("A Voice to be Reckoned With")!
Season 4, Ep. 19
•
Brandy is ABSOLUTELY one of my favorite people in Podcastia! She still gets a kick out of the fact that I had her doing cartoon voices. But if you love hearing people speak with authentic passion, look for her on social media. You'll be glad you did!
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________-
As you will hear, Brandy is a lot of fun to talk to. Plus, I had equally as much fun as a guest on her show, "A Voice to be Reckoned With." I found her to be very straightforward and honest, with a passion for whatever she sets out to do. You might catch her Facebook videos or Tik-Tok, and that's her brain and her heart throwing 100% into her videos. AND, she a way better impressionist than I am. But then again, there are a few rotten pineapples that I can say the same thing about. Do yourself a favor and check out her podcast-she's the real deal! Thanks so much , Brandy, for being a guest, and allowing me to be a guest!

11. Sherpa Samples YOU will LOVE! (Or, at least, remember their birthdays....)
14:16||Season 15, Ep. 11Let's start 2026 by easing back into the show! (Translation: the Mount Podcastia Police confiscated my high-powered Flexible Flyer sled, after an "incident" (allegedly) involving 6 bricklayers, a Pokemon swingset, and 134.7 pounds of raspberry-flavored spinach. You'll have to ask my lawyer, Dirty Louie, for further details.)Here's a list of the "Sherpa Samples" that were featured in the episode:The ToastModern WisdomBe better everydayWhiskey Ginger with Andrew SantinoAmerican Alchemy with Jesse MichelsDanny Jones PodcastMurder with My HusbandWe Might Be DrunkPetty POV with Charlotte DobreFinancial AuditCatch "Sherpa Selects" on Saturdays.

23. YouTuber Cody Langley ("POPular Opinion")!
31:34||Season 5, Ep. 23Who knew, I'd end up discussing Funko Pops...again? Anyhoots, Cody hasn't put any new "POPular Opinions out lately. My suspicion is he b ought all the Funko Pops a man can ask for. (Please don't ask me what that number is...) But check this fun(ko) interview out, okay?________________________________________________________________________________________________________"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 knew about them a few months earlier. Cody's YouTube channel is very unique. He's a guy who certainly likes to have fun on camera, and with his guests. If I were playing "Wheel of Misfortune", I'd have to be very careful. Truth be told, I had a vowel-buying problem a number of years ago. But I'm much better. For now, anyway. But thanks so much for coming on, Cody!Cody's info: YouTube channel: POPular Opinion, Instagram: @popularopinionyoutube, Email:popularopinion87@gmail.comCody's faves: When Words Fail, Music Speaks, Myth Story, Sherpa Suggestions (Podcasts by YouTubers)https://www.podchaser.com/lists/20-best-podcasts-hosted-by-youtubers-107ZzmV7pNThe Create UnknownNo Dumb QuestionsH3 PodcastJust A Tip with Megan BatoonEar BiscuitsWaveform: The MKBHD PodcastDomino UniverseThe Gus and Eddy PodcastCold OnesHello internetDon't forget to check out my Spotify-exclusive mini-podcast with Mr (Uncle)Bruce and me.

25. Actor/Writer/Playwright Billy Van Zandt! ("Love, Sex, and The IRS")
56:37||Season 5, Ep. 25I decided this would be a fun way to end 2025-with a rewind to a visit with a fin guest! Bet you didn't know that Billy did a voiceover as Groucho Marx for "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" in 2022, and published his plays that he wrote with his late writing partner, Jane, in a book titled," Because It's Funny" . And you'll have no doubt that it is after listening to this interview!!____________________________________________________________________________________________________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 interview, sent me a copy of his book, Jane, Get In The Car, which I read off my computer, so I can't call it a page-turner, legally...maybe a slow-computer screen scroll down, so you can enjoy all of the chapters? It's a fun read, regardless. The writing style of the book is like how Billy was in the interview-straightforward, funny, interesting, and entertaining. All of this made him an ideal guest for the podcast, too. It's chock full of stories that give you a great insight on the life of a tv writer. Trust me, you'll enjoy it. Maybe Billy will make a play out of it? Whatever he does next, I'm sure will be something to keep the masses entertained. Much thanks for coming on the show, sir!Next week, we wrap up Season 5 with a mini-episode....tune in, okay?Follow the show on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram at @Sherpalution, and check out my website, sherpalution.com , for older episodes, Sherpa Sheets, and Spotify playlists.

22. Podcasters JD and The Ghost ("Goin' Hollywood")!
41:22||Season 5, Ep. 22Alas, no new episodes to be found of "Goin Hollywood" , but there is a "Going Hollywood" which has nothing to do with this episode. I remember recording this one was actually a technical nightmare, because the guys kept losing their connection. Personally, I think I deserve a mixing award for this! Ok, maybe not...but enjoy it, anyway!!___________________________________________________________________________________________________-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 Ghost. It's two guys with a strong love of the cinema and all the joys it brings (or doesn't bring) us. They were 2 guys that were definitely interesting to speak with. Plus, how often do I get to break out my bad Joe Pesci impression? Or will the Rebels say, "Look what you made him do!!??"Either way, thanks guys for swinging by!Goin' Hollywood's info: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, TikTok @goinhollywoodpodGoin' Hollywood's faves: Timesuck with Dan Cummins, Last Podcast on the Left, Nightmare on Film Street, The GOAT HouseSherpa Suggestions: The Top 20 Podcasts of 2020, https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/best-podcasts-2020-1105406/SomebodyChameleon:Hollywood Con QueenFloodlinesHome CookingStaying In with Emily & KumailWorking It Out w/ Mike BirbigliaMotive: Season 3Unspooled Season 2: The New 100Nice White ParentsBorrascaRabbit HoleDead EyesSlow Burn: David DukeWind of ChangeYou Must Remember This:Polly Platt, The Invisible WomanFollow the show on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram at @Sherpalution, and check out my website, sherpalution.com , for older episodes, Sherpa Sheets, and Spotify playlists.

24. Actress Shannan Wilson ("Halston")!
39:16||Season 5, Ep. 24Shannan is one of those guests that I need to play catch-up with! Her IMDB lists a few upcoming projects, so Shannan, whenever you're ready, come on back to the Sherpa Chalet! (Maybe without the restraining order, possibly?)____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________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 Screening Room. Somebody needs to cast this lady in a comedy, and stat! (She's already got a background in improvisation, anyway.) And when she becomes mega-famous, she'll already have known the ropes of QVC, so she can sell the Shannan Wilson line of clothing, guitars, or IV-drip ice cream. (Okay, maybe not that last one. It's what got me thrown out of "Shark Tank.") So, keep an eye open for "Halston" on Netflix, and check out "Sno Babies" on Amazon Prime, for a sampling of her dramatic chops. Or listen to one of her songs which is on Spotify and iTunes. Better yet, have a listen to one at the end of this interview!"I Know You Exist" is an original composition, which is played with Shannan's blessing (Thank you!)Follow the show on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram at @Sherpalution, and check out my website, sherpalution.com , for older episodes, Sherpa Sheets, and Spotify playlists.

21. Podcaster Jason Taylor("3 Geeks Podcast", Mat Talk")!
31:32||Season 5, Ep. 21Jason was a really nice, fun guest, and he's still busy with BOTH podcasts, so check them out and get your geek on! (I think that's what the kids are saying today?)__________________________________________________________________________________________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. Awesome people!) But we got through the interview unscathed, so that's a plus! Jason certainly keeps himself busy with several podcasts. He's a guy who loves to share his passion with his listeners and his (varying amount of) co-hosts. Thanks for coming on the show, Jason. It was a VanDamme good time!Jason's info: Podcasts: The 3 Geeks Podcast, Mat Talk; Website for all shows: 3geeks.ninja Twitter: @3geekspodcastJason's faves: Wondery podcasts, The Schmos Know, The Top 10, Prinze and the Wolf,Sherpa Suggestions (Podcasts about tv shows):Mat TalkSo, It's A Show: Keeping Up With The Gilmore GirlsBonanas for BonanzaHeadlong- Running from CopsThe Talking DeadFriends 'Til The EndBuffy VirginCharmed, I'm SureAll Things VanderpumpOnce-A Once Upon A Time PodcastProfiling Criminal Minds90-Day Fiance Cray CrayUCMJAGVeronica Mars InvestigationsChicks In The OfficePower Rangers The Audio DramaFollow the show on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram at @Sherpalution, and check out my website, sherpalution.com , for older episodes, Sherpa Sheets, and Spotify playlists.

10. Author Jason Norman("John Hinckley Jr: Who I Really Am")!
28:19||Season 15, Ep. 10As much as I appreciated Jason coming on the show for an interview, my apologies to you for not hearing John Hinckley Jr's perspectives on his life, up to, including, and after March of 1981, after the attempted Reagan assassination.. Hopefully ,we will hear from him in the future to revisit his book. I assure you, this is certainly a unique memoir; not one that is seeking sympathy, but one that details, in brutal honesty, a dark path with mental illness. As Jason says in the interview, there is/was a lot more to John than what he's infamously known for. Thanks for coming on the show, Jason!Here's the link to "John Hinckley Jr.: Who I Really Am": https://tinyurl.com/252ztlg8 , and for Jason's website: https://normanwrites.wordpress.com/(Here's the link to "Happy Sherpa Holidays" on Spotify, in case you need a holiday pick-me-up: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6JwXNC6d1UB78EHCwuDTOA )Catch "Sherpa Selects" on Saturdays.

20. Author Steven Jay Rubin("The James Bond Movie Encyclopedia")!
53:23||Season 5, Ep. 20This one is definitely one of my favorite interviews! We recorded this before Steve launched his podcast,"Steven Jay Rubin’s Saturday Night At The Movies", which you should check out if you love movies. He's a great guest (who comes back on the show...spoiler alert) and an incredible interviewer on his show, too!_____________________________________________________________________________________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 passion(s) with an audience, whether in writing, or on film. Plus, he was so much fun to talk to, and we both broke out impressions from our respective toolkits. We recorded the episode before the unfortunate passing of Sean Connery (spoiler alert: Steve's favorite Bond)., but you can clearly see what a fan he is. Thank you so much for coming on the show Steve! Because of your visit, I now like my yak yogurt shaken...not stirred. (Well, it's a start.)Are you a fan, too? Here's an Amazon link to Steve's work: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=steven+jay+rubin&i=stripbooks&crid=K3MBWHS5VOSM&sprefix=steven+ja%2Cpopular%2C161&ref=nb_sb_ss_ts-a-p_4_9Follow the show on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram at @Sherpalution, and check out my website, sherpalution.com , for older episodes, Sherpa Sheets, and Spotify playlists.
