| Guests on the Couch! |
| Overview |
| A regular feature of The Shtick is an interview with interesting members of our community. Some are in the arts, some are spirtual, some are in business...some are all of these. A real mix of topics and interests are what makes the interview the central event of most shows. Over the years, we have had many notables. How many do you know? We have Musicians, Comedians, Artistis, Politicians, Sportsmen (and women), Rabbis (real ones!) & other spiritualists |
