The Real Jimmy Hollywood visited the podcast back in 2017. This is a truly fun, interesting and engaging conversation. Featuring a new recording from me, this episode has lots of heartfelt moments, including a moment where Jimmy learns that a Hollywood legend had just passed away, and shares it with me during the interview. Here is the description I wrote back in 2017 for the interview, which originally aired on an online radio network, recorded with equipment I no longer use today, and has not been available for a few years now: Early this afternoon I had an amazing interview experience with Jimmy Hollywood. Trust me when I say this is one not to be missed. Jimmy is someone who has offered me a lot of encouragement and has inspired me as host of Hollywood and Beyond with Steven Brittingham. What did my full hour interview with Jimmy result in?? His early days in broadcasting and why he still considers himself a Midwesterner by heart. His involvement with releasing the smash hit song "96 Tears" and the reasons behind why Elvis threw a Big Mac over his head. His thoughts on what it really takes to make it in Hollywood are not to be missed. Jimmy even gets emotional when I bring up his friend Roy Orbison, in a not to be missed response. You will also find out why Jimmy wants to take me to Wendy's. Thank you goes out to Jimmy tonight. I haven't been able to stop thinking about our talk all day long!

It would though provide Brett with a valuable lesson that he now firmly maintains today. Atlanta based actor Brett Newton is my guest!
