Speaker 2 (01:07):
Hey, there was Brian Sebastian movie reviews and more. And
if it's Tuesday, that's funny, Jerry. If it's Tuesday, it
was always given Tuesday. You gotta give to the arts.
You got to support those artists out there, the museums, libraries,
doesn't matter who it is support. Randy Allman, December nineteenth,
Carnegie Hall. I do like that island. This is a
thing about this it is I was looking forward to
(01:28):
seeing these two and I'll tell you why not only
with Jimmy Adams my team T for seven. These two
people are really responsible for helping us. I've never told
these twos that on air, but I thought about them
like it's time to let them know that. If it
weren't for Sherry Nelson and Aileen Shapiro, who would have
never met Dean. If it weren't for Jimmy, we when
(01:49):
have interviewed a lot of those clients during the lockdown.
And so I want to say I thank you for
all of that, because we wouldn't be where we are
movie reviews and more without you two doing what you
guys do on the East Coast and the West coast.
And that's the suther to me. So the two calendars, well,
I don't say it to be nice. I never say
anything to be nice. I say it because true, true
(02:13):
say this. So here's the thing. I don't care if
anybody's swearing today. I don't care because Aileen's here. She
is a side screen, so it doesn't matter. She loves
her two calendars, which is really important. She knows exactly
what's going on with those two calendars. You can't get
anything by her. She's that author. She was, you know,
I think she still stuff for the huff Post Louder
(02:35):
than War if I'm correct. All right, So I'm gonna
read this. I never read anything, never never, never, never never.
But here's the thing about it. She is that great publicist.
And so isn't Jimmy. You know, he's that former fashion designer.
He's that, you know. I would say he's one of
the original influencers, you know, a best selling author. He
is the toy collector. I love when Halloween comes around
(02:57):
because that's I think that's his favorite season. And by
the way, I think it's your birthday coming up. Happy Birthday,
Jimmy in.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
A few hours.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
And when it comes to that all of that, you know,
here's that celebrity Indian and it's always about the Jimmy
Stars Show with Ron Russell. You know, we got to
say hi to Ron because I love Ron, and so
I think Ron is one of the last Hollywood icons
and historians in the world. I only count a little
bit of Leonard Moulton, but I think Ron is the
(03:27):
only one. All Right, everybody, Carol, you haven't met Ileen
and Jimmy? How long?
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Who you are?
Speaker 4 (03:37):
Hi am Carol Register. It's lovely to meet you. Guys.
I'm so glad you're here. I hear wonderful things about
you all the time. Thank you for you know, the
ranking for us in the Hollywood Elites magazine that came
out Hollywood Digest. I hear you guys are behind that.
One of you is behind that for sure. I am
(04:00):
neuro coach, and you know how people are wealthy and miserable.
Never met anybody like that, ever been that way? Well,
I bring people back into heart centered alignment so they
can have their cake and eat it too, have their
wealth with happiness and joy. I also have a boutique
hotel down in southern Chile where we do retreats. We
(04:24):
do complete nervous system and wealth recalibrations, and I have
my own show, Unleashed and Unstoppable. The Unleashed and Unstoppable
podcast is so cool for you.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
So I have a question, and good for you, congratulations.
What if you're happy and you're just poor as hell? Yeah,
I'm super happy, but I need the wealth part somehow.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Well. Also, Jimmy, tell everybody, because you've got one point
two billion, you know, I think it's the views and
place crossline on.
Speaker 5 (05:01):
That fifty seven million exactly.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Now that's important. Tell the audience why that is important?
Speaker 5 (05:09):
Oh, I don't know. Because it gives me great bragging rights.
It's fun. I mean, it's just fun, you know. So
my show is on one of my shows is on
the sister station to Talk for TV W four c
Y Radio and the show's been. We've been on the
air for over eighteen years, so there was no such
(05:31):
thing as a podcast when we started. It was a
radio show. Now there's a thing as a podcast. So
we've been on the air for a really long time.
And basically it's a celebrity interview show. I get to
interview a lot of great people, just like you guys
do it, just like Eileen does. Eileen actually helps get
a lot of my great If anybody doesn't know, she's
a New York Times bestselling author and she's interviewed the
(05:51):
biggest stars on the planet. She doesn't know who any
of the movie stars are. She knows who all the
music stars are, so she'll get all these like wild
music stars and she'll know who they are, and then
she'll call me and she'll say, they want me to
interview Steve Carell, Like, is he somebody I should like interview?
You know, it's because she doesn't know who the people
are and they're all like the biggest stars in the world.
(06:12):
So she's interviewed everybody. You know, Cindy Lauper and today
she interviewed Robin s And she's interviewed everybody. So she's
like a superstar and Eileen and I actually met through
my show because another publicist scheduled her to come on
my show to promote a book that she had written.
And we became fast friends. And we were on a
(06:35):
ghost hunt and we met through a publicist and we
had Ricky Rebel, who's like a pop star, and we
had him Padrosha own a Carole who's a medium, and
we went on this ghost hunt. At the end of
the ghost ton Eileena and I were talking because we
all met through the same publicist, and Eileen said, you know,
do a lot of publicists come to you to get
help with their stuff? And I was like all the time.
(06:56):
And she said we should start a PR firm and
I said, yeah, we should. We should see what we
could do. And the next day we came up with
the name World Star PR and within two weeks we
had ten clients and it's been good ever since.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
You know, uh and I love their clients, and you know,
so the good thing about their clients is they're spread
all around. You know, Aileen's got the East coast, Jimmy's
got the West coast. In some kind of strange way,
they meet in the middle of the country and around
the world, and they've got some of the best clients
out there that really do and they stay with these guys,
even the ones that may have problems or something like that.
(07:30):
But you know, Alean's not going to put up with nonsense,
first of all, because she's a long island ship. She's
just not going. Hey, Rachel, remind them who you are
and tell them what you've been doing lately. Ahead, Ah, okay,
lean in the house.
Speaker 5 (07:45):
I mean so boring.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
I don't know I'm doing like you are not boring.
Speaker 4 (07:49):
You're not boring, Rachel.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
I do coffee talk in the mornings. I do a
lot of talk videos.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Raping me.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
Here earlier in New York accent.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
They are they rape you well kind of? Hey, Jimmy,
So you know, here's one thing I was I've always
say I'm a YouTuber, not a TikToker, But Jimmy said,
you know, Brin, if you need help doing something, I'll
show you what to do. How many people do that?
We don't have any jealousy around. It shouldn't be like that.
Speaker 5 (08:24):
You know.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
I hate it when he's not getting what he wants
when his films. You know. Oh, by the way, any
future investors out there. This is the person you want
to invest in because of his films, and he's a
good supporter when it comes to things like that, right,
Jimmy real quick?
Speaker 5 (08:38):
Yes, I am real quick rebel. Is there a way
I type my own name wrong because I'm mentally ill?
Start him start? Is there a way to get rid
of that team?
Speaker 3 (08:52):
I like that?
Speaker 5 (08:57):
But I believe, going back to what you say, I
believe that if everybody helped everybody, everybody could be successful.
You know, in my social media on between Twitter and Instagram,
TikTok and Facebook, you know, I work with a group
of people and everybody supports each other to help everybody grow.
And I think that's the way it should be. And
if somebody only wants me to help them do stuff
and they never reciprocate, I basically just stop, you know,
(09:20):
because I don't have time for that. But I think
that if we all helped each other, we could all grow,
we could all be successful. There's plenty, there's plenty of
pie for everybody to have some if you're not an asshole.
Speaker 6 (09:29):
I wish more people were like that, because you know,
I the all there. I get, you know, you just see,
you know, you try. I try to be a partner
with people and try to do partnerships and help my
friends out. But people like sometimes they just take take
cake the never get back. It's just really sad that
more people don't see there's so much wealth to go around.
(09:49):
There's so many opportunities to go around. You don't need
to copy other people or be jealous of other people.
Just do your own thing and you'll be successful. And
I just wish that you hit it right the nail
around the heads. I just wish more people, you know,
got that way.
Speaker 5 (10:03):
Everybody's like it, and everybody in the podcast world. So
I have three podcasts, and everybody in the podcast world
does their own thing. And as long as you're doing
your own thing, you know, you're not my competition because
I don't do what you do and you don't do
what I do. Yes, it's a podcast, that's the only
thing we have in common. But other than that, you know,
it's it's it's not the exact same thing. And everybody
should be able to go and do it is whateverever
(10:25):
they want to do and be successful at it. And
there's no reason why everybody can't support each other and
help make that happen.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
It's your unique voice, right the podcast is you can't help,
but it be that even if you're both selling protein powder,
your voice is going to be different than the next
person doing similar things. Same thing with wealth coaching or
any of the things that we do. It's always going
to be a unique voice. And that is something I
(10:53):
think that I love about podcasting because it can be
celebrated and absolutely I think that's really powerful.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Where's how he's in Atlanta today? You know? So he
was sorry, he was he wanted to be on this
one too. He's shopping.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Not that much fun.
Speaker 5 (11:11):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
He desperately did. He apologized, and you know, he did
not want to miss the show, but he was in
Atlanta buying shopping. Hey, Eileen, tell anybody your background for
the audience that may not know the things that you've done,
including you know your love of adam Ant.
Speaker 7 (11:27):
Well, I love Adamant and probably everybody in the world
knows that.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
But when I saw it, I wrote a book when
I was sixteen, and oh my god, no, it was.
Speaker 7 (11:38):
Like a Best New York Times bestseller. It was a
Star Trek book. Yeah, the Star Trek Medical Reference Manual
License by paramount and used in several of the Star
Trek movies as a reference, which.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
Is really cool.
Speaker 7 (11:55):
So I used to like to have a I had
a question Leonard Nimoy or miss I'm not sure which,
and he turned out to be the first person, at
sixteen that I had an interview with. So I've been
a journalist ever since, writing books, writing articles, interviewing people
and just having fun. You know, like, yeah, my whole
(12:18):
big thing is I wanted to really interview Animn. So
I figured, you know, I better like step it up
and interview really big people, otherwise he would want to
interview with me. So I interviewed Diana Ross, I interviewed
Andy Lennox, I mean, a whole list of people, and
then finally, six years later, I got to interview him
and meet a man become friends with him.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
So you know, it's like a really cool dream. And
I still, you know, I still have a bucket list,
but I'm getting that what is your bucket list? Well?
Speaker 7 (12:50):
All right, So I had three people on it, actually
three and a half four. One was Animn, one was
rich Springfield, who I also met.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
Viewed a bunch of times.
Speaker 7 (13:01):
One was Billy Idol, who I met a bunch of
coms but never interviewed him.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
And the other one is and I'm almost there.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
Thanks for quite so cool that is. Yeah, it's in fact,
Rick Springfield students some of new things. I'm sure you're
way ahead of me on that.
Speaker 6 (13:21):
He looks fantastic too.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (13:24):
Great, he's really good.
Speaker 7 (13:25):
He looks great and he's still great in concert. And
he's he's just fun.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
He's a lot of fun. He's really really nice. All
of them are.
Speaker 7 (13:35):
I mean, when you when you have like an idol
and they're actually nice, it's such a good feeling.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
Yeah, I like this person and yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 6 (13:46):
I mean I have I have somebody that I really
really want to interview with me and that would be
Dave Grohl.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Have you have you talked to him ever?
Speaker 5 (13:55):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:55):
I think I have.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
No, I actually think I have.
Speaker 6 (13:59):
Uh huh, because he's somebody that I just I mean,
he's just so talented. So that's just somebody that's on
my buket I like to interview to buying for years.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
I said, I'm going to help on. I will help
on him get a moneyment on my toe. Hey, Jimmy,
I was going to ask you this for those people
because you do so many things and so many things well,
and I don't think you get enough credit for all
the things that you've done. Talk about when you were
that fashion designer in Florida, did you know you were
going to end up doing what you're doing now?
Speaker 5 (14:27):
No idea whatsoever. My whole life start up astro my
whole life. I wanted to be a clothing designer, and
I was working in retail stuff. I was working in retail.
I wanted to be a clothing designer, and my my
dad said. I kept telling my dad I was going
to become a clothing designer as soon as I had
(14:48):
enough money to do it, and he said, You're never
going to have enough money to do it. So I
quit my job. I bought a building, started making clothes
and selling them out of there, and I had a
lot of success. I only made one of a kind clothes,
and I dressed like you know, Steven Tyler, and I
dressed I did the costume design for Too Fast, Too Furious,
and I dressed Elton John. I mean, I dressed all
(15:09):
these like cool people. Everybody loved it because there was
only one of them. The first person I ever dressed
that I got really excited about was David Arquette, because
there was a picture of him in People magazine, you know,
wearing the stuff that I like made, and that was
like for me, like a really big deal at the time.
And then so I was doing very, very well as
(15:30):
a clothing designer. I had four stores in South Florida.
It was a lot of fun. And then the government
came in and emminent domained my property and I lost
everything and I had to reinvent myself. And after like
a six year legal battle, I reinvented myself and the
show we got, the show that the Jimmy Starr Show
with Ron Russell started, you know, during that time, and
(15:51):
so I kind of became a talk show host. I
met Eileen, and I became a publicist. I've been working
in films since I was in high school, films in
tele vision, and I used to back when I lived
in Pennsylvania. I authored about seven books, and I took
them all down because I co authored them with somebody.
(16:12):
They didn't want to be doing it anymore. So recently
I started publishing books that I had written years ago. Again,
so now I'm also an author, and I wrote a
book collecting Funko pops and I used to be a
tax fare but I wrote a book on collecting Funko
pops because I collect action figures. I have two other podcasts.
It's one called Collector's Corner with Jimmy Starr that's all
about action figures. And I have Dark Frights Horror News,
(16:34):
which is all about horror movies because those are my
passions of horror movies and horror movies and action figures
and and I we haven't had a whole lot of
great events in LA. This has been a weird year,
so I haven't only been to LA. Was my first
time on Saturday. But we had so much fun we
have I think you guys had Aero Rose and Chrystal
(16:55):
Arrow Rows and Chris Wise on the show and their
show was set Saturday night, and it was they were
so phenomenal and so good. There's arrow Rows, she was good.
Arry was there.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
She was so glad you were there. I had so
much fun.
Speaker 6 (17:12):
I had so much fun dancing and it was just
we just said, I just had a great time. And
I brought my girlfriend Kim, and yeah, we just she's
so talented. And all the musicians there were were so good.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
They were.
Speaker 6 (17:25):
You know, I got to talk to you, you know,
Jimmy for a while and step So yeah, it was.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
It was a fun, fun evening.
Speaker 6 (17:30):
But I'm a rocker, so anything that's like RockA well,
I'm there.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
I'm all over it.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
We're actually going to bring them to New York. Now,
I don't know if he knows that, Jimmy, do you
know that?
Speaker 5 (17:42):
Yeah, yes, yes, she told me that that you thought
that they were going to bring it to New York.
Speaker 7 (17:47):
Yeah, well I think we are and you should all come, Brian.
I think it's going to be December twenty first, right
around when Brandy's that Carnegie.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Well, so, well, have I gotta say in New York longer?
Speaker 3 (18:02):
Yes, you're going to be there already, you might as well.
Speaker 5 (18:08):
Do it, right, It's totally worth it. Like Chris Wise
is super super cool for anybody who doesn't know who
he is, He's like a really famous bassist. He's the
basis for the Hollywood Vampires, he was the basis for
Ace Frehley, the Osborne Rolling.
Speaker 6 (18:27):
So yeah, because I was a huge fan of the
cult back in I'm dating myself in college. But yeah,
so he's he's so I mean That's why I first
introduced him was when he was playing for the Cult.
Speaker 5 (18:40):
Yeah, he was just he was He's just unbelievable. So
it's definitely a show to go see, and you guys
would like it a lot.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
Cool, you know, Jimmy. You know, the one thing I
like about your show that I've never seen with anybody
else is You've got a You've got that rapid audience
that's always there on Wednesdays for you, and I love
seeing when you're scrolling down and did just build commons
to come and do It's not easy to see those
I've only seen that with you.
Speaker 5 (19:06):
I don't think a lot of other people make the
option available for people if they would want to do it.
And I'll tell you what, if you do have an
opportunity to have a chat room and get people in
the chat room and become friendly with them, and I
mention all their names during the show, and they take
my promos and they promote it on their social media
(19:26):
because I've included them as part of my show. They
help promote the show. And that's one of the reasons
why have so many people tuning in is because the audience,
you know, feels like they're a part of it. I'm
super nice to everybody on social media and the people
who help promote I help promote their stuff, you know that.
I think about everybody help together, and they're all really
good people, and they're from all over There's people from Germany,
(19:47):
the UK, there's people from all over the place. But
I do believe that if you can build people to
come up in your chat room and then you help
promote them, they will help promote you, and that won't
make things grow to me with your.
Speaker 4 (20:00):
Paper week, are are you all? Are they all live?
Or any of them previews?
Speaker 5 (20:07):
So so basically, my other two podcasts are short form podcasts.
They're only about eight to ten minutes long, and I
do them whenever I can do them, you know. I
try to do at least one a week, sometimes too
a week, it just depends how busy I am. And
then my my big show, the Jimmy Stars Show with
Ron Russell, is on Wednesdays from twelve to two pm
Pacific time, and that's live just like this. It's just
(20:28):
like this, and we're on the sister station, actually Talk
four TV. We're on W four c Y Radio and
I've been on the station since I started. Dean's a
great guy and I've been with him and your engineer
Rebel used to be my engineer back in the day.
She's fabulous too.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Yeah, she is good. You know she talks about you podcast.
I want to scribe the horror one.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
Oh talk about this.
Speaker 5 (20:52):
So Dark Fright's Horror News is a short form podcast.
We would just mostly do horror movie reviews, mostly indie
films and a lot of from the eighties, because that's
what I like. And it's the companion to a website
that I have. It's called Darkfrights dot Com and it's
all the horror news and it's like the top twenty
horror websites in the world, and it's darkfrights dot Com.
(21:14):
So you can go to it, and this is the
companion piece to that.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Hey, Jimmy, talk about horror never goes out of style.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
It is so interesting. Do you remember when it used
to be the third week of August the dead week?
Now it is every week.
Speaker 5 (21:29):
Horror is the number one well for a filmmaker, Horror
is the number one genre. It's the most profitable genre.
For me, it's the funniest genre. And I know the
most people Eileen is getting kind of like into it
because we have a film out right now called The
Beast Inside that we produced, and we have another film
we're working on called cry Havoc, which is a werewolf
(21:52):
movie that I Lean's a producer on, and we're looking
for funding for that one right now. It's kind of
a big budget, but I Leans. Although I Lean loves
the uh, the the music thing, she's starting to like
the movie thing and the fact that if you guys
go on to be right now, The Beast Inside is
free on tub and it starts Sadie Kats, Loreen Landon
(22:12):
and Ernie Wells.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
And Ron Jimmy and I have a cameo.
Speaker 5 (22:17):
Yes, and has a good cameo. Eileen has a good
cameo in it, like she has his white eyes. So
you guys can watch it now on TB for free.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
And I'm gone by Randyelman.
Speaker 6 (22:31):
I dried Brian crazy because he's staying at my house
and like, all, I watched this horror movies.
Speaker 5 (22:36):
What's your favorite?
Speaker 6 (22:37):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (22:37):
I love it?
Speaker 6 (22:38):
I didn't Binge watched The Monster ed Genes Story, Like
I watched it like one day. I was like, I
was so fascinated with it because it was like I
didn't realize that, like all these great horror films like Chainsaw,
Massacre and the Lambs that were all like, we're all
because of the stuff that he did.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
Yes, you know what mine was, Donna did Dead George,
you know, an evil dead. Absolutely.
Speaker 5 (23:05):
So I was very good friends with Bill Hinzman who's
no longer with us. And Bill Heinzman was the main
zombie that everybody sees first in Donna, the original Donna
of the Dead. And I've also I'm friends with George
and Merrick Junr and I've been I've met George Rameiri
many many times. He was like a genius. And I
love zombie movies, so they're fun. I like the Dracula movies.
Speaker 6 (23:28):
That's why I enjoyed the event so much.
Speaker 4 (23:31):
One and to the one you just loved, Brian, I
don't know if there's any connection here, but faith Kills.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Oh yeah, I think so. Yeah, Rachel, do you have
a favorite horror film? Yeah, because Rachel watches a lot
of movies, and oh I do. Yeah, Brian and I
are We call each other out Wednesday, and.
Speaker 6 (23:58):
Yeah, I think I started the My BTK was my
dad that I started that Yesterday's.
Speaker 5 (24:05):
I started watching. Is that a documentary or a movie?
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Yeah, it's a documentary.
Speaker 5 (24:09):
Yeah, can you imagine to watch that? I don't. I
know a lot about BTK Killer. And there's an actual
movie called bt K where Kane Hodder, who's the original
Jason from Friday the Thirteenth, plays the bt bt K Killer.
And he's a good friend of mine. He's a big
stunt guy. And so I would probably like watch that,
and and and and Eileen was talking about we have
(24:31):
another client that we work with. His name is he's
an Emmy nominee. His name's Mike Mayhall and he has
a five part series on two B and it's called
The Madness of David Judge and it's a psychological thriller
and it's really good. That's a really good show.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
Deaddo Storm. Really cool guy, Aileen.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
I think you're the only publicist, not because you're here
that I like. He's got really cool clients and a
lot of them are in their music though I don't
really think anybody's not that many like you do. They
have some, but they have a mixt of everything else.
You have a stook ones where they like stay with you,
you know, take it to you. Put Randy aside. I'm
thinking like Fred Schneider from the B fifty two's one day,
(25:13):
want to talk to him. Someone's got to set up
a mic so we could talk to him, cause I
love to be fifty two's.
Speaker 5 (25:18):
He won't do he won't do all that.
Speaker 7 (25:20):
He won't do, you know, Jimmy, Jimmy, he might now
because he has a podcast too.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Oh finally.
Speaker 7 (25:31):
Took, but I think he would do it now. I'm
pete when I'm done here.
Speaker 5 (25:36):
Yeah, that's one of the best.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
That's one of the best concerts I ever saw at
the Television Critics Association for Snobby Writers. You know, I
was in the back actually dancing the rock Lobster and
my own private Idaho because I play it every other day.
Speaker 7 (25:52):
I love Fred Fred. Fred came to my house and
got drunk ones set my stands in the snow?
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Did you have to go pick him up?
Speaker 8 (26:05):
And in his in his defense if you uh so,
like Eileen lives like on a hill most people, like
most people have like three steps to get into their
front you know, she's got like thirty really steep steps
to get.
Speaker 5 (26:21):
Up to her house. You know, so, like lots of
people could fall down, like even though he probably was drunk,
but lots of people could fall down on it because
it's extremely high up in the air.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
Wow, you know, we get hurt.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
If that helps any Hey, talk about the clients that
you pick on the way on the East Coast client
East Coast Aileen, which he's specifically looking for, because I
don't think you just take anybody right.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Well, you know what it depends.
Speaker 7 (26:47):
I like to take people that are not there yet
and people that are there and and that you know,
like like Dicky about it. And then I also like
to do people who want to reinvent themselves. I have
a lot of clients that are like eighty and over
and they're cool, the cool as fuck, So you.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
Know, I love that.
Speaker 3 (27:10):
Oh my god, I love Michael.
Speaker 7 (27:12):
I have Irene Michaels who's she's from Chicago, so she's
kind of almost the East Coast, but you know, she's
eighty years old and she's a house singer, I.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
Think on your show, but I mean she sings house
who does that at.
Speaker 7 (27:26):
Eighty and she looks looks good, looks good.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
They talk about the other night on somebody of the
people that showed up, Well.
Speaker 7 (27:35):
We had her show up with her husband, who is
one of the was one of the biggest rock promoters
on the planet.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
We had no.
Speaker 5 (27:47):
Show six Tony Awards, I think her Seve Antonio.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
Awards nine nine, what's his name? His name is Granted.
I can put him on your show.
Speaker 7 (27:58):
You would like him, Okay, very interesting.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
And he did. He was like a live nation, you know.
Speaker 7 (28:04):
And what he did was he did everyone from Frank
Sinatra to Madonna a huge, huge shows and he does
Broadway shows, which is why he has nine Tonys, and
so he's kind of interesting.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
And they were there and we had no you remember, No,
don't you?
Speaker 7 (28:24):
From Revolution Revolution whose real name was Frank. I know
you know him, Brian, I know you do?
Speaker 2 (28:31):
I do I do?
Speaker 7 (28:32):
With his Russian wife who takes frog venom and like.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
She's really.
Speaker 5 (28:39):
Have friends that do that.
Speaker 3 (28:41):
And then Jimmy had a whole lot of people there.
So we had.
Speaker 5 (28:45):
Actually Paul who's like a Billboard charting artist. She's charted
on Billboard about ten or twelve times. We have Paul
Gunn who's a big actor who came on. We had
the Baroness Summer Helene who does a bunch of actually
she has a show on the station on Fridays and
her m M A boyfriend Fighter Bear Fjorda. It was
(29:08):
one of the housewives husbands from one of the Housewives
shows there. But I don't watch the Housewives, so I
wasn't sure they had one of the guys from Jackass
was there?
Speaker 3 (29:18):
We had guys?
Speaker 5 (29:20):
Yeah, there was guys from the Cult. I can't remember all.
Isn't that funny?
Speaker 7 (29:25):
Like we had we had Evan Stanley there, Paul Stanley's son.
Speaker 6 (29:30):
He actually performed, he was amazing. I really enjoyed them.
I really enjoyed watching them.
Speaker 5 (29:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:37):
Who else did we have? Jimmy? We had my God
people there.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
It was people there you have I think you have more?
Is it Simonetta VI? I think you rep her more
than Eileen? Is that right?
Speaker 4 (29:51):
Uh?
Speaker 5 (29:51):
Yes, when we're working with her, we're not working with
her at the moment, but it's not We do everything equally. Yeah,
we do everything equally. There's just certain clients that seem
to like gravitate to me, and there's clients that seem
to gravitate to her. But we both work on everybody.
You know. I just talked to her more like and
and I mean talks to other people more. So it's
(30:13):
a little bit different, but we're not working with her
thought at the moment.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
At least, I like watching a lot of what your
clients do. I think that's that's great because you guys
really take care of them a lot, and I, you know,
I think that's why they.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Hang out, branched out. Now we do evente to them too.
Speaker 4 (30:28):
Oh wow, that's powerful. Those are something right now. So
you're more on the music side, I leen, and you're
more on the acting side and acting producing.
Speaker 5 (30:40):
Is that right?
Speaker 4 (30:41):
As far as the way you guys have your clients.
Speaker 5 (30:43):
Well, I usually I usually work more with the movie people,
and she works more with the well, I shouldn't say
works more. We both work with everybody. But my interest
is in movies more and hers is in music more.
And so that's why we kind of crossed the whole thing.
But she has an interest in movies and I have
an interest in music. Its kind of like works out
that way because I've been working in movies for like
a long time, and she's getting that way. And she's
(31:05):
I mean, she's basically like a music like she knows everybody.
You know. Basically, there's like nobody I mean recently the
guy someone passed away and I was like, oh, I
think I've heard that name. And then we do something
with them, and she's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, who died?
Who died recently?
Speaker 3 (31:22):
I don't know a lot of people. Oh Diane, Diane Keaton, Yeah,
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (31:26):
This was.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
Oh my god, from the movie.
Speaker 5 (31:33):
Because John John.
Speaker 3 (31:37):
John Watte, he just died recently.
Speaker 5 (31:40):
That's one OF's friends.
Speaker 7 (31:42):
Yeah, he was a friend and he and he died unexpectedly,
so that was kind of sad. And but I mean
we we worked with the most eclectic kind of people,
like like everyone from like hip hop to like Randy.
Speaker 5 (32:02):
I mean, like we worked with Molly Molly mal who
I don't know if he's still in jail, but he
was in jail. No he's not, you know, like we
were working with him until he went to jail for
doing something with hookers in Las Vegas. And yeah, we
had PM don as a client at one time. Caroline Richie,
I mean Caroline Williams, who's a big scream queen. She's
(32:24):
the only one who lives in Texas. Chainsaw massacre too,
So we've had like such a wide vot.
Speaker 7 (32:29):
Now, who did a record with Randy Believe It or Not, and.
Speaker 5 (32:33):
He performed at the MTV Awards for the fifty Years
of Hip Hop. He was one of the performers at
the MTDCV Awards.
Speaker 7 (32:41):
We have Leon Robinson kind of sort of he's like
an adopted client.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
Well, yeah, you know, that's what's interesting. You guys have
people that kind of hang on to you and you
may wrap them up because they like you. Guys. I
think that's really cool.
Speaker 3 (32:57):
But we like them too, so it is cool. It
is cool.
Speaker 7 (33:00):
You know, Like Leon asked for a favor right now,
I would in a heartbeat do it. But when I
asked Leon hayle On, can you show up here in
a heart beat?
Speaker 3 (33:09):
He does, so you know it's good.
Speaker 5 (33:11):
Mutually beneficial relationships.
Speaker 9 (33:13):
Yeah, well that brings up a question I'd love to know, like,
and you don't have to say names, of course, but
what was what's it been like to work with somebody
you found out you didn't like?
Speaker 3 (33:25):
We fire them.
Speaker 5 (33:32):
Ale is very good at that. She's significantly better at
that than I am. But basically, you know, she tells
people you don't know what the fuck you're talking about,
and you're like, you're totally delusional in your expectations. I mean,
we've had clients who who nobody's ever heard of, who
have two thousand followers on social media, and after working
with them for two weeks, they'll literally say, how come
(33:53):
I'm not on Good Morning America? And You're like, you,
like you got to be like brain dad or something.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
You think you Madonna. I mean, I will tell the truth.
I will tell my clients.
Speaker 7 (34:04):
Believe me. I tell them the truth. I mean, even
with any when I first started working with him, he goes, oh,
I want to do Radio City And I said to him,
I said, you don't have you don't have a fucking prayer.
And then I got him a T shirt that said
Randy Edelman the Real Madonna. And I guess you got
to get after that.
Speaker 5 (34:27):
That's one of the problems with you know, with with
expectations and people's expectations. Sometimes, you know, people either think
they're a lot better than they are, or you know,
don't realize how long it takes. You know, like people
come to me and they're like, gee, you know, how
do you get all these people to listen to your podcast? Well,
you know, I've been doing it for eighteen years. It's
not like I woke up one day and had a podcast.
(34:47):
A million people wouldn't listen to it. You know, that's
a light thing. They think that, Jimmy, don't they They
think that, like when you put up how many views
you've had, Brian, and people look at that and they're like, oh,
Brian Sebastian can get twenty million views or whatever. Your
view calent is forty million views, you know, so can
I know, you cannot. Like it's unless you're like, you know,
if you're like Madonna, yeah you can. But but a
(35:10):
regular everyday person who thinks because everybody, everybody's like, oh,
I'm going to do a podcast. If you can do it,
I can do it, and nobody lasts more than about
six weeks. Seven weeks, yeah, six or seven weeks. They
get they get, you know, they get like four of
their friends to watch it, and nobody else like, you know,
you know, it's not so easy, and it's really not
it's really not easy, especially now because now I think
(35:33):
there are one point seven Okay, before COVID, there was
only a couple of one hundred thousand podcasts. Now there's
one point seven million podcasts. So you're competing with like
a lot of other people, you know, for the audience,
and and so you know.
Speaker 10 (35:46):
Even that statistic, you know, the statistic is it's crazy,
just exactly what you were saying to me about people
doing it and getting their four friends to watch and
dropping off.
Speaker 4 (36:00):
It's a long game, I think the statistic is, but
you know, they're dropping out after three episodes, like literally,
there's a forty six percent or something. So when somebody
is wanting to start a podcast and they come talk
to me, I'm like, it's a long game. Just stay
with it, just be in it. You'll be fine as
(36:22):
long as you make that commitment, set that intention from
the beginning. I think that's where you know, people start
to go, oh, okay, I get it now. I'm not
gonna have instant push button success here.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
And by the way, this is a one hundred and
seventy three third live show in a row. So if
we go in, we continue to go straight through by
the end of the year, we'll have one hundred and
ninety one. Yeah, yeah, that's really no, there's no guarantee.
But still we just continue to do it.
Speaker 5 (36:51):
You know, you have to continue to do it, and
it's a depending on what you're it's a it's a
it's a very difficult process that people don't really get,
like finding guests, you know, it is not always an
easy thing to do, and then finding guests that people
are going to like like, and you don't really know
what guests people are going to like. Sometimes the most
famous people I've had on have done the worst, you know,
view wise. Sometimes we bring out people I'm not, But
(37:14):
sometimes you bring people on that nobody knows who they are,
and you get a ton of plays because people do
like the interaction in the way that those people are.
So you don't really know and nothing is a given
and nothing is a guarantee. But also you have to
keep it going. And I did a lot of different
things when I first started, Like I used to put
out press releases for every guest that came on. For
the first probably fifteen years, you know that I did it.
(37:37):
I put out a press release on each guest that
came on, and I have two every week, you know,
just to help get it going because they would share
it in their social media, and that's how it did it. Now,
as I've become a public It's funny because as I've
become a publicist. I do no press on me, and
I do press on everybody. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
But here's the thing about you, Jimmy, is that you
do a lot of everything, and you do a lot
of everything evenly well. And that's not easy to do.
And the reason I know this because when I'm traveling
across country, I'm seeing what everybody else is not doing.
And I tell Caroyl and I tell Terry and Rachel.
You know that's that's that's not good. You know, there's
five thousand movie theaters went out of business last year.
(38:18):
That's terrible. I went to Regal theaters last night and
I saw two movies. I saw, you know, Smashing Machine,
the Rocks movie What's Bombed? And it wasn't a bad movie.
It was actually good at but I can see why
people didn't go see it. And then I'm asking, you know,
do we got the reclining chairs? It got people bringing
me popcorn as in my reclining seats, which I don't
necessarily care because they have no concession fan. I'm like,
(38:39):
where's the popcorn at? Oh, we bring it to you.
Speaker 3 (38:41):
How do I know?
Speaker 4 (38:42):
No?
Speaker 2 (38:42):
One didn't split in it, you know, because it's.
Speaker 5 (38:44):
In the back.
Speaker 2 (38:45):
We don't know you. So everything keeps changing to get
audience members to go to the movie theaters. Well, let
me ask you, Jimmy, it was the last time you
went to the theaters.
Speaker 5 (38:54):
Hey. We went and saw the New Downtown Abbey movie
and I seen Ron walking another He doesn't I have
had phones so he can't hear. So I saw the
New Downtown Abbey movie. It was the first movie I've
been to in two years.
Speaker 7 (39:09):
Wow. Yeah, I actually, Jimmy, I have nine grandchildren and
one of them is like ten uh lately like into
horror movies like he loves Smile And I'm like, you know,
so I take them because their mother won't. But you know,
part of the fun for me is the popcorns.
Speaker 3 (39:32):
I get what you said.
Speaker 2 (39:34):
Yeah, I'm still do when it potform.
Speaker 7 (39:37):
One of my grandchildren game now works in a movie
theater at a bowling alley.
Speaker 2 (39:44):
I mean, let me ask you this. We've lost way
too many music icons and they're not being replaced, not
and that saddens me because you know, there used to
be a time when people would go to New York
or hitch trick to California to make it. People don't
do that anymore. They don't have to. But we don't
have icons anymore, do we.
Speaker 3 (40:04):
Well, I don't know about that.
Speaker 7 (40:05):
I might have to disagree, because there are icons in
the making.
Speaker 3 (40:10):
They're just not there yet, but they will be.
Speaker 7 (40:13):
You know, they're young, but they're so talented, they're so talented.
Speaker 3 (40:18):
But there, I mean, there are a bunch around Leland.
He's an icon. I mean.
Speaker 2 (40:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (40:26):
Now, I mean like because I agree with you, because
it's the same thing as in Hollywood. I think nowadays
we have a lot of movie stars, but we don't
have a Marilyn Monroe. We don't have a Jane Russell.
We don't have a.
Speaker 2 (40:40):
People that would actually really go pay then run to
see the theaters. They'll go to their We don't have.
Speaker 5 (40:45):
Music.
Speaker 6 (40:46):
Yeah, I think social media.
Speaker 3 (40:52):
We still have kiss.
Speaker 5 (40:53):
We still kiss Osbourne and that was a big one.
Speaker 3 (40:57):
That was a big one. He'll never be replaced.
Speaker 5 (41:00):
Well.
Speaker 2 (41:00):
The reason why I say this, I just came back
from Vegas this morning, is why I have no sleep.
People would come around the world to go see someone
perform in Vegas. They will go see YouTube, YouTube or
or the Eagles of the Spirit. But there we don't
have a Danny Ganz who was the twelve twelve years
in a row, the best entertainer in the world, twelve
years in a row in Vegas. We don't have that.
(41:21):
We don't have a Sigweed and Foy. People aren't gonna
go see Donnie Osman, who's great around the world. They
just won't because you know, they just won't.
Speaker 5 (41:32):
We don't have that. We don't have the icons now
in music, like Billie Eilish will never be an Ozzy
Osbourne or of that stature. Should be fair, should be big,
she'll be famous, she'll still a lot of around.
Speaker 2 (41:43):
They're big in a different way.
Speaker 5 (41:45):
Yeah, But I don't think that we're gonna have people
like we used to have acting or in music. I
don't think. I think those days are over. I think
you're gonna have a lot of really famous people. But
but you're not gonna have any one person who stands
out like they used to, you know, back when, in
our day, which is unfortunate actually, But you know, I
don't like the way like rock stars look anymore. Like
(42:07):
rock stars don't look like rock stars, and movie stars
don't look like movie stars anymore. And I missed the
glamour of all of it. Yeah, you know, when you
used to see like even now, when you see Steven Tyler,
you know he's a rock star no matter what he's wearing,
and how goofy it is. It's cool and he looks
like a rock star. But most of the rock stars now,
you know, they wear basically T shirt and jeans and
(42:27):
that's it and sneakers. You know, they don't look like
rock stars.
Speaker 2 (42:30):
And got a lot of the country acts now too.
It's interesting where it's kind of blending almost a little
bit of hip hop, because you know, everybody's blending together.
Speaker 5 (42:39):
I love country music like I love Kelsey Ballerini, you know,
And I didn't even know who she was until I
saw her as a voice a judge on The Voice.
I don't even know who she was, But now I
listen to her like all the time. I think she's fabulous.
So I think there's shows like The Voice, Like I
don't watch The Voice, I only watch the auditions, like
the blind auditions. I don't like watch it after that.
(43:00):
I just like to watch the blind auditions. And but
I think all the American idols and all those different
shows like that have kind of like ruined it because
none of those people ever really do much that win
those shows. But to me, it's just fun because I
liked the music and I like watching it. But but
I don't think we're going to have the iconic kind
of Basically, Kelly Clarkson's basically the only one who really
(43:21):
hit really big one.
Speaker 2 (43:25):
And then we had we had, but he kind of
dropped out because he could. I thought he would have
been something, you know, I wanted to go see him
downtown and in a small arena, but there was an ame.
But I liked his music when he was on His.
Speaker 5 (43:37):
Music was good music.
Speaker 3 (43:39):
You forget Adam Lambert, he was an American idea.
Speaker 2 (43:42):
Well, you know, I think I don't think he gets
enough credit for going to be the you know, the
lead for Queen though, because he's great.
Speaker 3 (43:48):
He's good, he's great.
Speaker 7 (43:49):
You know, I've been to Beree Room and I've met
him and I'm friends with him, and he he's just
first of all, he's like one of the nicest people
on the planet.
Speaker 3 (44:00):
Acondly, nobody sings like him.
Speaker 2 (44:02):
He's amazing that That's why Queen took him, you know,
because he was perfectly you know, Hey, we got a
couple of minutes left ilean talk about Randy in December?
What else you got coming up? And then soho Johnny too?
Speaker 7 (44:16):
Well, I got, uh, Randy going to do Carnegie Hall
right now. He's in England, if anyone's watching, he's doing
Altraham Kent and something else I forget, but anyway, he's
doing Carnegie Hall and he'll be accompanied by Jackie DeShannon.
By the way, is Mary she's recording again too, and
(44:40):
she's really good. And then he'll be doing Lincoln Center
in June. And then you know various things in the
middle which I which I haven't made up yet. So
Johnny's not doing much of anything. You know, we managed
Tribeca Records for him, and right now he's kind of
(45:04):
laying low and doing real estate. And you know, his
first lover is disc so and he's doing a little
bit of that. I guess he's trying anyway. So I mean,
you know, everybody's doing something. Randy Will is probably going
to be doing a new album soon.
Speaker 2 (45:22):
Oh well. The other thing is we're going to the
Josie Awards too, right, talk about that.
Speaker 7 (45:26):
Yes, I'm okay, I'm getting there. We were very lucky
because all of our musical clients are nominated in the
Josie and we're all going genas Oleman, Quinn Lemley, Irene Michaels,
Ben Baccady I think, and there are some others, but
they're all nominated and they're all very excited and we're
(45:50):
trying to get boats, and there's only one more day

Hey, there was Brian Sebastian movie reviews and more. And
if it's Tuesday, that's funny, Jerry. If it's Tuesday, it
was always given Tuesday. You gotta give to the arts.
You got to support those artists out there, the museums, libraries,
doesn't matter who it is support. Randy Allman, December nineteenth,
Carnegie Hall. I do like that island. This is a
thing about this it is I was looking forward to
(01:28):
seeing these two and I'll tell you why not only
with Jimmy Adams my team T for seven. These two
people are really responsible for helping us. I've never told
these twos that on air, but I thought about them
like it's time to let them know that. If it
weren't for Sherry Nelson and Aileen Shapiro, who would have
never met Dean. If it weren't for Jimmy, we when
(01:49):
have interviewed a lot of those clients during the lockdown.
And so I want to say I thank you for
all of that, because we wouldn't be where we are
movie reviews and more without you two doing what you
guys do on the East Coast and the West coast.
And that's the suther to me. So the two calendars, well,
I don't say it to be nice. I never say
anything to be nice. I say it because true, true
(02:13):
say this. So here's the thing. I don't care if
anybody's swearing today. I don't care because Aileen's here. She
is a side screen, so it doesn't matter. She loves
her two calendars, which is really important. She knows exactly
what's going on with those two calendars. You can't get
anything by her. She's that author. She was, you know,
I think she still stuff for the huff Post Louder
(02:35):
than War if I'm correct. All right, So I'm gonna
read this. I never read anything, never never, never, never never.
But here's the thing about it. She is that great publicist.
And so isn't Jimmy. You know, he's that former fashion designer.
He's that, you know. I would say he's one of
the original influencers, you know, a best selling author. He
is the toy collector. I love when Halloween comes around
(02:57):
because that's I think that's his favorite season. And by
the way, I think it's your birthday coming up. Happy Birthday,
Jimmy in.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
A few hours.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
And when it comes to that all of that, you know,
here's that celebrity Indian and it's always about the Jimmy
Stars Show with Ron Russell. You know, we got to
say hi to Ron because I love Ron, and so
I think Ron is one of the last Hollywood icons
and historians in the world. I only count a little
bit of Leonard Moulton, but I think Ron is the
(03:27):
only one. All Right, everybody, Carol, you haven't met Ileen
and Jimmy? How long?
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Who you are?
Speaker 4 (03:37):
Hi am Carol Register. It's lovely to meet you. Guys.
I'm so glad you're here. I hear wonderful things about
you all the time. Thank you for you know, the
ranking for us in the Hollywood Elites magazine that came
out Hollywood Digest. I hear you guys are behind that.
One of you is behind that for sure. I am
(04:00):
neuro coach, and you know how people are wealthy and miserable.
Never met anybody like that, ever been that way? Well,
I bring people back into heart centered alignment so they
can have their cake and eat it too, have their
wealth with happiness and joy. I also have a boutique
hotel down in southern Chile where we do retreats. We
(04:24):
do complete nervous system and wealth recalibrations, and I have
my own show, Unleashed and Unstoppable. The Unleashed and Unstoppable
podcast is so cool for you.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
So I have a question, and good for you, congratulations.
What if you're happy and you're just poor as hell? Yeah,
I'm super happy, but I need the wealth part somehow.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Well. Also, Jimmy, tell everybody, because you've got one point
two billion, you know, I think it's the views and
place crossline on.
Speaker 5 (05:01):
That fifty seven million exactly.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Now that's important. Tell the audience why that is important?
Speaker 5 (05:09):
Oh, I don't know. Because it gives me great bragging rights.
It's fun. I mean, it's just fun, you know. So
my show is on one of my shows is on
the sister station to Talk for TV W four c
Y Radio and the show's been. We've been on the
air for over eighteen years, so there was no such
(05:31):
thing as a podcast when we started. It was a
radio show. Now there's a thing as a podcast. So
we've been on the air for a really long time.
And basically it's a celebrity interview show. I get to
interview a lot of great people, just like you guys
do it, just like Eileen does. Eileen actually helps get
a lot of my great If anybody doesn't know, she's
a New York Times bestselling author and she's interviewed the
(05:51):
biggest stars on the planet. She doesn't know who any
of the movie stars are. She knows who all the
music stars are, so she'll get all these like wild
music stars and she'll know who they are, and then
she'll call me and she'll say, they want me to
interview Steve Carell, Like, is he somebody I should like interview?
You know, it's because she doesn't know who the people
are and they're all like the biggest stars in the world.
(06:12):
So she's interviewed everybody. You know, Cindy Lauper and today
she interviewed Robin s And she's interviewed everybody. So she's
like a superstar and Eileen and I actually met through
my show because another publicist scheduled her to come on
my show to promote a book that she had written.
And we became fast friends. And we were on a
(06:35):
ghost hunt and we met through a publicist and we
had Ricky Rebel, who's like a pop star, and we
had him Padrosha own a Carole who's a medium, and
we went on this ghost hunt. At the end of
the ghost ton Eileena and I were talking because we
all met through the same publicist, and Eileen said, you know,
do a lot of publicists come to you to get
help with their stuff? And I was like all the time.
(06:56):
And she said we should start a PR firm and
I said, yeah, we should. We should see what we
could do. And the next day we came up with
the name World Star PR and within two weeks we
had ten clients and it's been good ever since.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
You know, uh and I love their clients, and you know,
so the good thing about their clients is they're spread
all around. You know, Aileen's got the East coast, Jimmy's
got the West coast. In some kind of strange way,
they meet in the middle of the country and around
the world, and they've got some of the best clients
out there that really do and they stay with these guys,
even the ones that may have problems or something like that.
(07:30):
But you know, Alean's not going to put up with nonsense,
first of all, because she's a long island ship. She's
just not going. Hey, Rachel, remind them who you are
and tell them what you've been doing lately. Ahead, Ah, okay,
lean in the house.
Speaker 5 (07:45):
I mean so boring.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
I don't know I'm doing like you are not boring.
Speaker 4 (07:49):
You're not boring, Rachel.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
I do coffee talk in the mornings. I do a
lot of talk videos.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Raping me.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
Here earlier in New York accent.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
They are they rape you well kind of? Hey, Jimmy,
So you know, here's one thing I was I've always
say I'm a YouTuber, not a TikToker, But Jimmy said,
you know, Brin, if you need help doing something, I'll
show you what to do. How many people do that?
We don't have any jealousy around. It shouldn't be like that.
Speaker 5 (08:24):
You know.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
I hate it when he's not getting what he wants
when his films. You know. Oh, by the way, any
future investors out there. This is the person you want
to invest in because of his films, and he's a
good supporter when it comes to things like that, right,
Jimmy real quick?
Speaker 5 (08:38):
Yes, I am real quick rebel. Is there a way
I type my own name wrong because I'm mentally ill?
Start him start? Is there a way to get rid
of that team?
Speaker 3 (08:52):
I like that?
Speaker 5 (08:57):
But I believe, going back to what you say, I
believe that if everybody helped everybody, everybody could be successful.
You know, in my social media on between Twitter and Instagram,
TikTok and Facebook, you know, I work with a group
of people and everybody supports each other to help everybody grow.
And I think that's the way it should be. And
if somebody only wants me to help them do stuff
and they never reciprocate, I basically just stop, you know,
(09:20):
because I don't have time for that. But I think
that if we all helped each other, we could all grow,
we could all be successful. There's plenty, there's plenty of
pie for everybody to have some if you're not an asshole.
Speaker 6 (09:29):
I wish more people were like that, because you know,
I the all there. I get, you know, you just see,
you know, you try. I try to be a partner
with people and try to do partnerships and help my
friends out. But people like sometimes they just take take
cake the never get back. It's just really sad that
more people don't see there's so much wealth to go around.
(09:49):
There's so many opportunities to go around. You don't need
to copy other people or be jealous of other people.
Just do your own thing and you'll be successful. And
I just wish that you hit it right the nail
around the heads. I just wish more people, you know,
got that way.
Speaker 5 (10:03):
Everybody's like it, and everybody in the podcast world. So
I have three podcasts, and everybody in the podcast world
does their own thing. And as long as you're doing
your own thing, you know, you're not my competition because
I don't do what you do and you don't do
what I do. Yes, it's a podcast, that's the only
thing we have in common. But other than that, you know,
it's it's it's not the exact same thing. And everybody
should be able to go and do it is whateverever
(10:25):
they want to do and be successful at it. And
there's no reason why everybody can't support each other and
help make that happen.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
It's your unique voice, right the podcast is you can't help,
but it be that even if you're both selling protein powder,
your voice is going to be different than the next
person doing similar things. Same thing with wealth coaching or
any of the things that we do. It's always going
to be a unique voice. And that is something I
(10:53):
think that I love about podcasting because it can be
celebrated and absolutely I think that's really powerful.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Where's how he's in Atlanta today? You know? So he
was sorry, he was he wanted to be on this
one too. He's shopping.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Not that much fun.
Speaker 5 (11:11):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
He desperately did. He apologized, and you know, he did
not want to miss the show, but he was in
Atlanta buying shopping. Hey, Eileen, tell anybody your background for
the audience that may not know the things that you've done,
including you know your love of adam Ant.
Speaker 7 (11:27):
Well, I love Adamant and probably everybody in the world
knows that.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
But when I saw it, I wrote a book when
I was sixteen, and oh my god, no, it was.
Speaker 7 (11:38):
Like a Best New York Times bestseller. It was a
Star Trek book. Yeah, the Star Trek Medical Reference Manual
License by paramount and used in several of the Star
Trek movies as a reference, which.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
Is really cool.
Speaker 7 (11:55):
So I used to like to have a I had
a question Leonard Nimoy or miss I'm not sure which,
and he turned out to be the first person, at
sixteen that I had an interview with. So I've been
a journalist ever since, writing books, writing articles, interviewing people
and just having fun. You know, like, yeah, my whole
(12:18):
big thing is I wanted to really interview Animn. So
I figured, you know, I better like step it up
and interview really big people, otherwise he would want to
interview with me. So I interviewed Diana Ross, I interviewed
Andy Lennox, I mean, a whole list of people, and
then finally, six years later, I got to interview him
and meet a man become friends with him.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
So you know, it's like a really cool dream. And
I still, you know, I still have a bucket list,
but I'm getting that what is your bucket list? Well?
Speaker 7 (12:50):
All right, So I had three people on it, actually
three and a half four. One was Animn, one was
rich Springfield, who I also met.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
Viewed a bunch of times.
Speaker 7 (13:01):
One was Billy Idol, who I met a bunch of
coms but never interviewed him.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
And the other one is and I'm almost there.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
Thanks for quite so cool that is. Yeah, it's in fact,
Rick Springfield students some of new things. I'm sure you're
way ahead of me on that.
Speaker 6 (13:21):
He looks fantastic too.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (13:24):
Great, he's really good.
Speaker 7 (13:25):
He looks great and he's still great in concert. And
he's he's just fun.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
He's a lot of fun. He's really really nice. All
of them are.
Speaker 7 (13:35):
I mean, when you when you have like an idol
and they're actually nice, it's such a good feeling.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
Yeah, I like this person and yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 6 (13:46):
I mean I have I have somebody that I really
really want to interview with me and that would be
Dave Grohl.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Have you have you talked to him ever?
Speaker 5 (13:55):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:55):
I think I have.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
No, I actually think I have.
Speaker 6 (13:59):
Uh huh, because he's somebody that I just I mean,
he's just so talented. So that's just somebody that's on
my buket I like to interview to buying for years.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
I said, I'm going to help on. I will help
on him get a moneyment on my toe. Hey, Jimmy,
I was going to ask you this for those people
because you do so many things and so many things well,
and I don't think you get enough credit for all
the things that you've done. Talk about when you were
that fashion designer in Florida, did you know you were
going to end up doing what you're doing now?
Speaker 5 (14:27):
No idea whatsoever. My whole life start up astro my
whole life. I wanted to be a clothing designer, and
I was working in retail stuff. I was working in retail.
I wanted to be a clothing designer, and my my
dad said. I kept telling my dad I was going
to become a clothing designer as soon as I had
(14:48):
enough money to do it, and he said, You're never
going to have enough money to do it. So I
quit my job. I bought a building, started making clothes
and selling them out of there, and I had a
lot of success. I only made one of a kind clothes,
and I dressed like you know, Steven Tyler, and I
dressed I did the costume design for Too Fast, Too Furious,
and I dressed Elton John. I mean, I dressed all
(15:09):
these like cool people. Everybody loved it because there was
only one of them. The first person I ever dressed
that I got really excited about was David Arquette, because
there was a picture of him in People magazine, you know,
wearing the stuff that I like made, and that was
like for me, like a really big deal at the time.
And then so I was doing very, very well as
(15:30):
a clothing designer. I had four stores in South Florida.
It was a lot of fun. And then the government
came in and emminent domained my property and I lost
everything and I had to reinvent myself. And after like
a six year legal battle, I reinvented myself and the
show we got, the show that the Jimmy Starr Show
with Ron Russell started, you know, during that time, and
(15:51):
so I kind of became a talk show host. I
met Eileen, and I became a publicist. I've been working
in films since I was in high school, films in
tele vision, and I used to back when I lived
in Pennsylvania. I authored about seven books, and I took
them all down because I co authored them with somebody.
(16:12):
They didn't want to be doing it anymore. So recently
I started publishing books that I had written years ago. Again,
so now I'm also an author, and I wrote a
book collecting Funko pops and I used to be a
tax fare but I wrote a book on collecting Funko
pops because I collect action figures. I have two other podcasts.
It's one called Collector's Corner with Jimmy Starr that's all
about action figures. And I have Dark Frights Horror News,
(16:34):
which is all about horror movies because those are my
passions of horror movies and horror movies and action figures
and and I we haven't had a whole lot of
great events in LA. This has been a weird year,
so I haven't only been to LA. Was my first
time on Saturday. But we had so much fun we
have I think you guys had Aero Rose and Chrystal
(16:55):
Arrow Rows and Chris Wise on the show and their
show was set Saturday night, and it was they were
so phenomenal and so good. There's arrow Rows, she was good.
Arry was there.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
She was so glad you were there. I had so
much fun.
Speaker 6 (17:12):
I had so much fun dancing and it was just
we just said, I just had a great time. And
I brought my girlfriend Kim, and yeah, we just she's
so talented. And all the musicians there were were so good.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
They were.
Speaker 6 (17:25):
You know, I got to talk to you, you know,
Jimmy for a while and step So yeah, it was.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
It was a fun, fun evening.
Speaker 6 (17:30):
But I'm a rocker, so anything that's like RockA well,
I'm there.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
I'm all over it.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
We're actually going to bring them to New York. Now,
I don't know if he knows that, Jimmy, do you
know that?
Speaker 5 (17:42):
Yeah, yes, yes, she told me that that you thought
that they were going to bring it to New York.
Speaker 7 (17:47):
Yeah, well I think we are and you should all come, Brian.
I think it's going to be December twenty first, right
around when Brandy's that Carnegie.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Well, so, well, have I gotta say in New York longer?
Speaker 3 (18:02):
Yes, you're going to be there already, you might as well.
Speaker 5 (18:08):
Do it, right, It's totally worth it. Like Chris Wise
is super super cool for anybody who doesn't know who
he is, He's like a really famous bassist. He's the
basis for the Hollywood Vampires, he was the basis for
Ace Frehley, the Osborne Rolling.
Speaker 6 (18:27):
So yeah, because I was a huge fan of the
cult back in I'm dating myself in college. But yeah,
so he's he's so I mean That's why I first
introduced him was when he was playing for the Cult.
Speaker 5 (18:40):
Yeah, he was just he was He's just unbelievable. So
it's definitely a show to go see, and you guys
would like it a lot.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
Cool, you know, Jimmy. You know, the one thing I
like about your show that I've never seen with anybody
else is You've got a You've got that rapid audience
that's always there on Wednesdays for you, and I love
seeing when you're scrolling down and did just build commons
to come and do It's not easy to see those
I've only seen that with you.
Speaker 5 (19:06):
I don't think a lot of other people make the
option available for people if they would want to do it.
And I'll tell you what, if you do have an
opportunity to have a chat room and get people in
the chat room and become friendly with them, and I
mention all their names during the show, and they take
my promos and they promote it on their social media
(19:26):
because I've included them as part of my show. They
help promote the show. And that's one of the reasons
why have so many people tuning in is because the audience,
you know, feels like they're a part of it. I'm
super nice to everybody on social media and the people
who help promote I help promote their stuff, you know that.
I think about everybody help together, and they're all really
good people, and they're from all over There's people from Germany,
(19:47):
the UK, there's people from all over the place. But
I do believe that if you can build people to
come up in your chat room and then you help
promote them, they will help promote you, and that won't
make things grow to me with your.
Speaker 4 (20:00):
Paper week, are are you all? Are they all live?
Or any of them previews?
Speaker 5 (20:07):
So so basically, my other two podcasts are short form podcasts.
They're only about eight to ten minutes long, and I
do them whenever I can do them, you know. I
try to do at least one a week, sometimes too
a week, it just depends how busy I am. And
then my my big show, the Jimmy Stars Show with
Ron Russell, is on Wednesdays from twelve to two pm
Pacific time, and that's live just like this. It's just
(20:28):
like this, and we're on the sister station, actually Talk
four TV. We're on W four c Y Radio and
I've been on the station since I started. Dean's a
great guy and I've been with him and your engineer
Rebel used to be my engineer back in the day.
She's fabulous too.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Yeah, she is good. You know she talks about you podcast.
I want to scribe the horror one.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
Oh talk about this.
Speaker 5 (20:52):
So Dark Fright's Horror News is a short form podcast.
We would just mostly do horror movie reviews, mostly indie
films and a lot of from the eighties, because that's
what I like. And it's the companion to a website
that I have. It's called Darkfrights dot Com and it's
all the horror news and it's like the top twenty
horror websites in the world, and it's darkfrights dot Com.
(21:14):
So you can go to it, and this is the
companion piece to that.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Hey, Jimmy, talk about horror never goes out of style.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
It is so interesting. Do you remember when it used
to be the third week of August the dead week?
Now it is every week.
Speaker 5 (21:29):
Horror is the number one well for a filmmaker, Horror
is the number one genre. It's the most profitable genre.
For me, it's the funniest genre. And I know the
most people Eileen is getting kind of like into it

What's your favorite?
Speaker 6 (22:37):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (22:37):
I love it?
Speaker 6 (22:38):
I didn't Binge watched The Monster ed Genes Story, Like
I watched it like one day. I was like, I
was so fascinated with it because it was like I
didn't realize that, like all these great horror films like Chainsaw,
Massacre and the Lambs that were all like, we're all
because of the stuff that he did.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
Yes, you know what mine was, Donna did Dead George,
you know, an evil dead. Absolutely.
Speaker 5 (23:05):
So I was very good friends with Bill Hinzman who's
no longer with us. And Bill Heinzman was the main
zombie that everybody sees first in Donna, the original Donna
of the Dead. And I've also I'm friends with George
and Merrick Junr and I've been I've met George Rameiri
many many times. He was like a genius. And I
love zombie movies, so they're fun. I like the Dracula movies.
Speaker 6 (23:28):
That's why I enjoyed the event so much.
Speaker 4 (23:31):
One and to the one you just loved, Brian, I
don't know if there's any connection here, but faith Kills.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Oh yeah, I think so. Yeah, Rachel, do you have
a favorite horror film? Yeah, because Rachel watches a lot
of movies, and oh I do. Yeah, Brian and I
are We call each other out Wednesday, and.
Speaker 6 (23:58):
Yeah, I think I started the My BTK was my
dad that I started that Yesterday's.
Speaker 5 (24:05):
I started watching. Is that a documentary or a movie?
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Yeah, it's a documentary.
Speaker 5 (24:09):
Yeah, can you imagine to watch that? I don't. I
know a lot about BTK Killer. And there's an actual
movie called bt K where Kane Hodder, who's the original
Jason from Friday the Thirteenth, plays the bt bt K Killer.
And he's a good friend of mine. He's a big
stunt guy. And so I would probably like watch that,
and and and and Eileen was talking about we have
(24:31):
another client that we work with. His name is he's
an Emmy nominee. His name's Mike Mayhall and he has
a five part series on two B and it's called
The Madness of David Judge and it's a psychological thriller
and it's really good. That's a really good show.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
Deaddo Storm. Really cool guy, Aileen.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
I think you're the only publicist, not because you're here
that I like. He's got really cool clients and a
lot of them are in their music though I don't
really think anybody's not that many like you do. They
have some, but they have a mixt of everything else.
You have a stook ones where they like stay with you,
you know, take it to you. Put Randy aside. I'm
thinking like Fred Schneider from the B fifty two's one day,
(25:13):
want to talk to him. Someone's got to set up
a mic so we could talk to him, cause I
love to be fifty two's.
Speaker 5 (25:18):
He won't do he won't do all that.
Speaker 7 (25:20):
He won't do, you know, Jimmy, Jimmy, he might now
because he has a podcast too.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Oh finally.
Speaker 7 (25:31):
Took, but I think he would do it now. I'm
pete when I'm done here.
Speaker 5 (25:36):
Yeah, that's one of the best.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
That's one of the best concerts I ever saw at
the Television Critics Association for Snobby Writers. You know, I
was in the back actually dancing the rock Lobster and
my own private Idaho because I play it every other day.
Speaker 7 (25:52):
I love Fred Fred. Fred came to my house and
got drunk ones set my stands in the snow?
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Did you have to go pick him up?
Speaker 8 (26:05):
And in his in his defense if you uh so,
like Eileen lives like on a hill most people, like
most people have like three steps to get into their
front you know, she's got like thirty really steep steps
to get.
Speaker 5 (26:21):
Up to her house. You know, so, like lots of
people could fall down, like even though he probably was drunk,
but lots of people could fall down on it because
it's extremely high up in the air.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
Wow, you know, we get hurt.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
If that helps any Hey, talk about the clients that
you pick on the way on the East Coast client
East Coast Aileen, which he's specifically looking for, because I
don't think you just take anybody right.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Well, you know what it depends.
Speaker 7 (26:47):
I like to take people that are not there yet
and people that are there and and that you know,
like like Dicky about it. And then I also like
to do people who want to reinvent themselves. I have
a lot of clients that are like eighty and over
and they're cool, the cool as fuck, So you.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
Know, I love that.
Speaker 3 (27:10):
Oh my god, I love Michael.
Speaker 7 (27:12):
I have Irene Michaels who's she's from Chicago, so she's
kind of almost the East Coast, but you know, she's
eighty years old and she's a house singer, I.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
Think on your show, but I mean she sings house
who does that at.
Speaker 7 (27:26):
Eighty and she looks looks good, looks good.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
They talk about the other night on somebody of the
people that showed up, Well.
Speaker 7 (27:35):
We had her show up with her husband, who is
one of the was one of the biggest rock promoters
on the planet.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
We had no.
Speaker 5 (27:47):
Show six Tony Awards, I think her Seve Antonio.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
Awards nine nine, what's his name? His name is Granted.
I can put him on your show.
Speaker 7 (27:58):
You would like him, Okay, very interesting.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
And he did. He was like a live nation, you know.
Speaker 7 (28:04):
And what he did was he did everyone from Frank
Sinatra to Madonna a huge, huge shows and he does
Broadway shows, which is why he has nine Tonys, and
so he's kind of interesting.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
And they were there and we had no you remember, No,
don't you?
Speaker 7 (28:24):
From Revolution Revolution whose real name was Frank. I know
you know him, Brian, I know you do?
Speaker 2 (28:31):
I do I do?
Speaker 7 (28:32):
With his Russian wife who takes frog venom and like.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
She's really.
Speaker 5 (28:39):
Have friends that do that.
Speaker 3 (28:41):
And then Jimmy had a whole lot of people there.
So we had.
Speaker 5 (28:45):
Actually Paul who's like a Billboard charting artist. She's charted
on Billboard about ten or twelve times. We have Paul
Gunn who's a big actor who came on. We had
the Baroness Summer Helene who does a bunch of actually
she has a show on the station on Fridays and
her m M A boyfriend Fighter Bear Fjorda. It was
(29:08):
one of the housewives husbands from one of the Housewives
shows there. But I don't watch the Housewives, so I
wasn't sure they had one of the guys from Jackass
was there?
Speaker 3 (29:18):
We had guys?
Speaker 5 (29:20):
Yeah, there was guys from the Cult. I can't remember all.
Isn't that funny?
Speaker 7 (29:25):
Like we had we had Evan Stanley there, Paul Stanley's son.
Speaker 6 (29:30):
He actually performed, he was amazing. I really enjoyed them.
I really enjoyed watching them.
Speaker 5 (29:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:37):
Who else did we have? Jimmy? We had my God
people there.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
It was people there you have I think you have more?
Is it Simonetta VI? I think you rep her more
than Eileen? Is that right?
Speaker 4 (29:51):
Uh?
Speaker 5 (29:51):
Yes, when we're working with her, we're not working with
her at the moment, but it's not We do everything equally. Yeah,
we do everything equally. There's just certain clients that seem
to like gravitate to me, and there's clients that seem
to gravitate to her. But we both work on everybody.
You know. I just talked to her more like and
and I mean talks to other people more. So it's
(30:13):
a little bit different, but we're not working with her
thought at the moment.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
At least, I like watching a lot of what your
clients do. I think that's that's great because you guys
really take care of them a lot, and I, you know,
I think that's why they.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Hang out, branched out. Now we do evente to them too.
Speaker 4 (30:28):
Oh wow, that's powerful. Those are something right now. So
you're more on the music side, I leen, and you're
more on the acting side and acting producing.
Speaker 5 (30:40):
Is that right?
Speaker 4 (30:41):
As far as the way you guys have your clients.
Speaker 5 (30:43):
Well, I usually I usually work more with the movie people,
and she works more with the well, I shouldn't say
works more. We both work with everybody. But my interest
is in movies more and hers is in music more.
And so that's why we kind of crossed the whole thing.
But she has an interest in movies and I have
an interest in music. Its kind of like works out
that way because I've been working in movies for like
a long time, and she's getting that way. And she's
(31:05):
I mean, she's basically like a music like she knows everybody.
You know. Basically, there's like nobody I mean recently the
guy someone passed away and I was like, oh, I
think I've heard that name. And then we do something
with them, and she's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, who died?
Who died recently?
Speaker 3 (31:22):
I don't know a lot of people. Oh Diane, Diane Keaton, Yeah,
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (31:26):
This was.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
Oh my god, from the movie.
Speaker 5 (31:33):
Because John John.
Speaker 3 (31:37):
John Watte, he just died recently.
Speaker 5 (31:40):
That's one OF's friends.
Speaker 7 (31:42):
Yeah, he was a friend and he and he died unexpectedly,
so that was kind of sad. And but I mean
we we worked with the most eclectic kind of people,
like like everyone from like hip hop to like Randy.
Speaker 5 (32:02):
I mean, like we worked with Molly Molly mal who
I don't know if he's still in jail, but he
was in jail. No he's not, you know, like we
were working with him until he went to jail for
doing something with hookers in Las Vegas. And yeah, we
had PM don as a client at one time. Caroline Richie,
I mean Caroline Williams, who's a big scream queen. She's
(32:24):
the only one who lives in Texas. Chainsaw massacre too,
So we've had like such a wide vot.
Speaker 7 (32:29):
Now, who did a record with Randy Believe It or Not, and.
Speaker 5 (32:33):
He performed at the MTV Awards for the fifty Years
of Hip Hop. He was one of the performers at
the MTDCV Awards.
Speaker 7 (32:41):
We have Leon Robinson kind of sort of he's like
an adopted client.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
Well, yeah, you know, that's what's interesting. You guys have
people that kind of hang on to you and you
may wrap them up because they like you. Guys. I
think that's really cool.
Speaker 3 (32:57):
But we like them too, so it is cool. It
is cool.
Speaker 7 (33:00):
You know, Like Leon asked for a favor right now,
I would in a heartbeat do it. But when I
asked Leon hayle On, can you show up here in
a heart beat?
Speaker 3 (33:09):
He does, so you know it's good.
Speaker 5 (33:11):
Mutually beneficial relationships.
Speaker 9 (33:13):
Yeah, well that brings up a question I'd love to know, like,
and you don't have to say names, of course, but
what was what's it been like to work with somebody
you found out you didn't like?
Speaker 3 (33:25):
We fire them.
Speaker 5 (33:32):
Ale is very good at that. She's significantly better at
that than I am. But basically, you know, she tells
people you don't know what the fuck you're talking about,
and you're like, you're totally delusional in your expectations. I mean,
we've had clients who who nobody's ever heard of, who
have two thousand followers on social media, and after working
with them for two weeks, they'll literally say, how come
(33:53):
I'm not on Good Morning America? And You're like, you,
like you got to be like brain dad or something.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
You think you Madonna. I mean, I will tell the truth.
I will tell my clients.
Speaker 7 (34:04):
Believe me. I tell them the truth. I mean, even
with any when I first started working with him, he goes, oh,
I want to do Radio City And I said to him,
I said, you don't have you don't have a fucking prayer.
And then I got him a T shirt that said
Randy Edelman the Real Madonna. And I guess you got
to get after that.
Speaker 5 (34:27):
That's one of the problems with you know, with with
expectations and people's expectations. Sometimes, you know, people either think
they're a lot better than they are, or you know,
don't realize how long it takes. You know, like people
come to me and they're like, gee, you know, how
do you get all these people to listen to your podcast? Well,
you know, I've been doing it for eighteen years. It's
not like I woke up one day and had a podcast.
(34:47):
A million people wouldn't listen to it. You know, that's
a light thing. They think that, Jimmy, don't they They
think that, like when you put up how many views
you've had, Brian, and people look at that and they're like, oh,
Brian Sebastian can get twenty million views or whatever. Your
view calent is forty million views, you know, so can
I know, you cannot. Like it's unless you're like, you know,
if you're like Madonna, yeah you can. But but a
(35:10):
regular everyday person who thinks because everybody, everybody's like, oh,
I'm going to do a podcast. If you can do it,
I can do it, and nobody lasts more than about
six weeks. Seven weeks, yeah, six or seven weeks. They
get they get, you know, they get like four of
their friends to watch it, and nobody else like, you know,
you know, it's not so easy, and it's really not
it's really not easy, especially now because now I think
(35:33):
there are one point seven Okay, before COVID, there was
only a couple of one hundred thousand podcasts. Now there's
one point seven million podcasts. So you're competing with like
a lot of other people, you know, for the audience,
and and so you know.
Speaker 10 (35:46):
Even that statistic, you know, the statistic is it's crazy,
just exactly what you were saying to me about people
doing it and getting their four friends to watch and
dropping off.
Speaker 4 (36:00):
It's a long game, I think the statistic is, but
you know, they're dropping out after three episodes, like literally,
there's a forty six percent or something. So when somebody
is wanting to start a podcast and they come talk
to me, I'm like, it's a long game. Just stay
with it, just be in it. You'll be fine as
(36:22):
long as you make that commitment, set that intention from
the beginning. I think that's where you know, people start
to go, oh, okay, I get it now. I'm not
gonna have instant push button success here.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
And by the way, this is a one hundred and
seventy three third live show in a row. So if
we go in, we continue to go straight through by
the end of the year, we'll have one hundred and
ninety one. Yeah, yeah, that's really no, there's no guarantee.
But still we just continue to do it.
Speaker 5 (36:51):
You know, you have to continue to do it, and
it's a depending on what you're it's a it's a
it's a very difficult process that people don't really get,
like finding guests, you know, it is not always an
easy thing to do, and then finding guests that people
are going to like like, and you don't really know
what guests people are going to like. Sometimes the most
famous people I've had on have done the worst, you know,
view wise. Sometimes we bring out people I'm not, But
(37:14):
sometimes you bring people on that nobody knows who they are,
and you get a ton of plays because people do
like the interaction in the way that those people are.
So you don't really know and nothing is a given
and nothing is a guarantee. But also you have to
keep it going. And I did a lot of different
things when I first started, Like I used to put
out press releases for every guest that came on. For
the first probably fifteen years, you know that I did it.
(37:37):
I put out a press release on each guest that
came on, and I have two every week, you know,
just to help get it going because they would share
it in their social media, and that's how it did it. Now,
as I've become a public It's funny because as I've
become a publicist. I do no press on me, and
I do press on everybody. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
But here's the thing about you, Jimmy, is that you
do a lot of everything, and you do a lot
of everything evenly well. And that's not easy to do.
And the reason I know this because when I'm traveling
across country, I'm seeing what everybody else is not doing.
And I tell Caroyl and I tell Terry and Rachel.
You know that's that's that's not good. You know, there's
five thousand movie theaters went out of business last year.
(38:18):
That's terrible. I went to Regal theaters last night and
I saw two movies. I saw, you know, Smashing Machine,
the Rocks movie What's Bombed? And it wasn't a bad movie.
It was actually good at but I can see why
people didn't go see it. And then I'm asking, you know,
do we got the reclining chairs? It got people bringing
me popcorn as in my reclining seats, which I don't
necessarily care because they have no concession fan. I'm like,
(38:39):
where's the popcorn at? Oh, we bring it to you.
Speaker 3 (38:41):
How do I know?
Speaker 4 (38:42):
No?
Speaker 2 (38:42):
One didn't split in it, you know, because it's.
Speaker 5 (38:44):
In the back.
Speaker 2 (38:45):
We don't know you. So everything keeps changing to get
audience members to go to the movie theaters. Well, let
me ask you, Jimmy, it was the last time you
went to the theaters.
Speaker 5 (38:54):
Hey. We went and saw the New Downtown Abbey movie
and I seen Ron walking another He doesn't I have
had phones so he can't hear. So I saw the
New Downtown Abbey movie. It was the first movie I've
been to in two years.
Speaker 7 (39:09):
Wow. Yeah, I actually, Jimmy, I have nine grandchildren and
one of them is like ten uh lately like into
horror movies like he loves Smile And I'm like, you know,
so I take them because their mother won't. But you know,
part of the fun for me is the popcorns.
Speaker 3 (39:32):
I get what you said.
Speaker 2 (39:34):
Yeah, I'm still do when it potform.
Speaker 7 (39:37):
One of my grandchildren game now works in a movie
theater at a bowling alley.
Speaker 2 (39:44):
I mean, let me ask you this. We've lost way
too many music icons and they're not being replaced, not
and that saddens me because you know, there used to
be a time when people would go to New York
or hitch trick to California to make it. People don't
do that anymore. They don't have to. But we don't
have icons anymore, do we.
Speaker 3 (40:04):
Well, I don't know about that.
Speaker 7 (40:05):
I might have to disagree, because there are icons in
the making.
Speaker 3 (40:10):
They're just not there yet, but they will be.
Speaker 7 (40:13):
You know, they're young, but they're so talented, they're so talented.
Speaker 3 (40:18):
But there, I mean, there are a bunch around Leland.
He's an icon. I mean.
Speaker 2 (40:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (40:26):
Now, I mean like because I agree with you, because
it's the same thing as in Hollywood. I think nowadays
we have a lot of movie stars, but we don't
have a Marilyn Monroe. We don't have a Jane Russell.
We don't have a.
Speaker 2 (40:40):
People that would actually really go pay then run to
see the theaters. They'll go to their We don't have.
Speaker 5 (40:45):
Music.
Speaker 6 (40:46):
Yeah, I think social media.
Speaker 3 (40:52):
We still have kiss.
Speaker 5 (40:53):
We still kiss Osbourne and that was a big one.
Speaker 3 (40:57):
That was a big one. He'll never be replaced.
Speaker 5 (41:00):
Well.
Speaker 2 (41:00):
The reason why I say this, I just came back
from Vegas this morning, is why I have no sleep.
People would come around the world to go see someone
perform in Vegas. They will go see YouTube, YouTube or
or the Eagles of the Spirit. But there we don't
have a Danny Ganz who was the twelve twelve years
in a row, the best entertainer in the world, twelve
years in a row in Vegas. We don't have that.
(41:21):
We don't have a Sigweed and Foy. People aren't gonna
go see Donnie Osman, who's great around the world. They
just won't because you know, they just won't.
Speaker 5 (41:32):
We don't have that. We don't have the icons now
in music, like Billie Eilish will never be an Ozzy
Osbourne or of that stature. Should be fair, should be big,
she'll be famous, she'll still a lot of around.
Speaker 2 (41:43):
They're big in a different way.
Speaker 5 (41:45):
Yeah, But I don't think that we're gonna have people
like we used to have acting or in music. I
don't think. I think those days are over. I think
you're gonna have a lot of really famous people. But
but you're not gonna have any one person who stands
out like they used to, you know, back when, in
our day, which is unfortunate actually, But you know, I
don't like the way like rock stars look anymore. Like
(42:07):
rock stars don't look like rock stars, and movie stars
don't look like movie stars anymore. And I missed the
glamour of all of it. Yeah, you know, when you
used to see like even now, when you see Steven Tyler,
you know he's a rock star no matter what he's wearing,
and how goofy it is. It's cool and he looks
like a rock star. But most of the rock stars now,
you know, they wear basically T shirt and jeans and
(42:27):
that's it and sneakers. You know, they don't look like
rock stars.
Speaker 2 (42:30):
And got a lot of the country acts now too.
It's interesting where it's kind of blending almost a little
bit of hip hop, because you know, everybody's blending together.
Speaker 5 (42:39):
I love country music like I love Kelsey Ballerini, you know,
And I didn't even know who she was until I
saw her as a voice a judge on The Voice.
I don't even know who she was, But now I
listen to her like all the time. I think she's fabulous.
So I think there's shows like The Voice, Like I
don't watch The Voice, I only watch the auditions, like
the blind auditions. I don't like watch it after that.
(43:00):
I just like to watch the blind auditions. And but
I think all the American idols and all those different
shows like that have kind of like ruined it because
none of those people ever really do much that win
those shows. But to me, it's just fun because I
liked the music and I like watching it. But but
I don't think we're going to have the iconic kind
of Basically, Kelly Clarkson's basically the only one who really
(43:21):
hit really big one.
Speaker 2 (43:25):
And then we had we had, but he kind of
dropped out because he could. I thought he would have
been something, you know, I wanted to go see him
downtown and in a small arena, but there was an ame.
But I liked his music when he was on His.
Speaker 5 (43:37):
Music was good music.
Speaker 3 (43:39):
You forget Adam Lambert, he was an American idea.
Speaker 2 (43:42):
Well, you know, I think I don't think he gets
enough credit for going to be the you know, the
lead for Queen though, because he's great.
Speaker 3 (43:48):
He's good, he's great.
Speaker 7 (43:49):
You know, I've been to Beree Room and I've met
him and I'm friends with him, and he he's just
first of all, he's like one of the nicest people
on the planet.
Speaker 3 (44:00):
Acondly, nobody sings like him.
