Podcast Picks with Jim the Podcast Sherpa

It's a mini-episode celebrating you, and the many people who made Season 14 possible. Thanks to the listeners, the voice people, the Sherpa-Lu studio players, all the amazing guests this season, and particularly, Wild Blue Press (https://wildbluepress.com), for all of their guests for so many interviews this season! Check out their "True Crime Talk" podcast, too! We're coming back with Season 15!

Here are the shows featured in "...

Michael and I caught up a little while ago, and there's a more recent interview in these episodes, if you're looking. If you're listening, I strongly advise you to check out "The Back of the Rack" on 97underground.com that Michael is the regular host on. Especially if you like your music rockin'! In the meantime, we'll just continue to make each other laugh on Facebook....

It's been certainly an interesting season for true crime, Rebels, so why not wrap it up with an episode about serial killers getting caught? Dennis' audio came out a bit choppy in spots (sorry!!), but he still paints a chilling picture of these horrific crimes. A few things to notice...first, any "gallows humor" in this episode in no way reflects insensitivity to the victims, but more to alleviate the horror. Second, I could not su...

Good news, Rebels! In a podcasting era where many podcasts from COVID are no longer around, I'm happy to report that "Canned Ait" is still kicking! (And I get bonus points for not making a "Kick the can "joke....oops, too late...) So check out this interview, as well as their show, if you're a pop culture fan!

Rebels, it's kind of rare on this show to have one guest who's promoted 3 different projects on 3 separate episodes, but I think if you factor Jesse in, that rarity goes away. He's been involved in so many aspects of media, it's like an endless supply for him. And fortunately for me ,and you, the listeners, it's always interesting content! I honestly knew nothing about healing frequencies before our conversation (oh, stop looking s...

So,here's what I know(not much, I know...). No new episodes of "Pardon My Fork", and Andy moved from Oregon to Florida shortly after this interview aired. (Honestly, did I create THAT much of a problem talking about ducks?). What I AM sure of was that this interview falls under the fun and interesting category...have a listen!

Another unique episode, Rebels. Judge Randazzo felt the best way to come clean about any speculation about his family history was to write his book.It presents an honest accounting of his ancestors and the lives that they lived, even though they sharply contrast with the values that he holds as a circuit county judge. Definitely an interesting way to confront and make peace with one's history, don't you think? You'll notice that in...

This was the original interview that I had with Darran during the COVID lockdown. But good news, club fans! "The DJ Sessions" is back, and we featured an episode for our "Listen To This" portion of the program, in Season 14, Episode

Darran Bruce strikes me as a guy who likes to be ahead of the curve. As opposed to me. who tends to trip on it, and get tangled up in it. What he says about playing copyrighted material is very imp...

On one of my "Sherpa Hunts" ( I think you on flat land call it "searching the Internet") for an interesting history podcast, I stumbled across Marc's show(s), and he replied to my interview request( I guess he never saw the "restraining order" thingy?). This interview was every bit as interesting and entertaining as I imagined (although I did imagine a surprise visit from Sofia Vergara while we were recording), and then some! Marc ...

Throwback to a COVID-era interview with a modern day King of Swing! This one's a Sherpa favorite (meaning Spotify will likely ban this episode)!

I really enjoyed talking to Scotty as much as I did mixing in the band's music for this episode! You can't just sit still and listen to it, although I must say my jitterbugging ...

Rebels, a few clarifications first...in the intro, I accidentally referred to Paul's book as "Crime and Punishment", (which I believe is Dostoevsky) also, while Paul was gracious enough to speak to me while he was in Germany, he was not in any sort of prison. He was released 28 months into his sentence, in 2022, but you'll hear that in the interview. We all have our stories of a "personal hell", but I think there are only a few tha...

I always wanted to air this episode on Friday the 13th, since it aired. ("How did THAT work out for you Sherpa?") But, whenever you hear this, it's a really fun and interesting interview, with a guy who underwent a fascinating career change...have a listen!!

Thanks to Byron for coming on the show. He won't have to give you directions on how to find his book, because the link is below! (Sorry for the rough audio on this one. This is the last time I conduct an interview through 2 cans and fishing wire!

Here's the link to Byron's book: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FDTFNHY8/?bestFormat=true&k=hunter%27s%20moon%20by%20james%20byron%20huggins&ref_=nb_sb_ss_w_scx-ent-pd-bk-d_k1_1_13...

This was another sports interview, which ultimately ended up getting kind of goofy in the middle (Not that I bear any responsibility,giggle,goggle) I believe that JB is still working with Sideline Sports, so please check his show out!

Rebels, I really enjoyed this interview. I have an immense respect for law enforcement, and when you get to hear their perspectives on their work, it's always fascinating. Doug's book might not be for the faint of heart, but it really provides a brutally honest compilation of sexually deviant crimes. (I'm not sure if I blushed when I read it, but if I did, complete denial!) Thanks so much for coming on the show, Doug!

Doug's inf...

Last time I checked, this is now known as "The Brian Snow Show" , where you can catch some recent episodes on YouTube . I think Brian has even branched out beyond sports,now. But I think this is one episode where the laughing started even before we started recording. Definitely a fun one, Rebels!

Without a doubt, one of the most motivating interviews I've ever done. And I don't even play basketball. (I always get confused when they tell me to dribble. It's not pretty...) Coach Scott is still pretty busy these days,too! Check this interview out!

Welcome to Season 5! So, do you love sports? Well then, my friend, you've...

Pardon the pun, but we go a bit off the beaten true crime path with this episode. But it's just as heavily researched as much as the other books that have been featured on here, I promise! Imagine, sorting through so many murder cases to decide which locations would ultimately be in a book, along with fascinating information. johnny (intentional lower case, by the way) does a great job of compiling this, along with some fascinating...
