The always entertaining television and radio personality Ernie Manouse of Houston Public Media is my guest this week - and with his many broadcast stories, he really is 'King of the Houston Airwaves'! The multiple Emmy Award winning broadcaster talks about his new show on Houston Public Media called 'Town Square with Ernie Manouse' - a program developed as a result of COVID 19; his 15 year run with television program 'InnerVIEWS with Ernie Manouse'; along with a few interesting backstories from his very successful nationally syndicated Downton Abbey inspired talk show 'Manor of Speaking'. He also discusses what he brings to the creative process (including his own personal method of interviewing); his ongoing stage gig with actor Al Pacino; how a large shirt and a paper clip brought him national fame as a co-host with finance expert Suze Orman, and why a small reel to reel tape recorder started his love of show business. Tune in and enjoy!
About the Spotlight Conversations podcast:
Tune in as I invite friends inside my cozy linoleum free recording studio to talk about all things media - radio, television, music, film, voiceovers, audiobooks, publishing - if guests know media, we're talkin'! Unscripted and nearly always entertaining, each guest gets real about their careers in the entertainment biz; from where they started to how it's going. Join us in my swanky studio where drinks are always on ice; music + media are the conversation starters. New episodes every other Tuesday.
