2025 Season Premiere: Adventures in the Stage & Screen Trade

Welcome to the Season 2 Premiere of Excelsior Journeys: Behind the Scenes. As part of the 2025 National Podcast Post Month Challenge, host & producer George Sirois is starting this new season with a breakdown of what will be discussed this month: Adventures in the Stage & Screen Trade.

Excelsior Journeys: The Road to Creativity exists primarily as a platform for creatives of all kinds (authors, filmmakers, stand-up comics, musicians, voice artists, painters, podcasters, etc) to share their journeys to personal success. It is very important to celebrate those voices as much as possible to not only provide encouragement to up-and-coming talent, but to say thank you to the established men & women for inspiring the current generation of artists.
