  • MELISSA CAMILLERI | Stand for the And Education Company

    Send us Fan Mail

    MELISSA CAMILLERI started her career as a High School English Teacher. She loved teaching and being able to connect with her students. And then an idea that started as a fundraiser turned into a small business called Shop Compliment. That was 2011 and Melissa worked hard to ensure it was a success through fostering relationships and providing an amazing product (jewelry) and message (empowering young women). Through her journey, Melissa got married to husband Nick in 2015. That was followed by two boys that started the family (No. 3 is due in 2023 and it's a GIRL!). Then the pandemic hit. Melissa used the coaching leg of her business to develop what she has today called Stand for the And Education Company. Even more amazing is that she is co-owner with business partner Angela Greaser. Greaser lives in Maine and the two have never met in person. Today we get to hear Melissa's amazing journey and this amazing business she has created that truly has her stronger and better than ever!

    HOST STEVE BUZZARD on Melissa Camilleri |  "Melissa represents what the podcast is all about. She had an idea. Made it into a business. Got married, Had kids. And then took her initial idea and shifted into something different. She has entrepreneur written all over her. And the best part ... I love her positive attitude toward life. It shines in this episode.  Our conversation hits THREE areas: 

    • SEGMENT 1  ✨ | begins with the early days of Shop Compliment and its origin. Melissa discusses all the important pieces that went into taking an idea for a fundraiser and making it into her first business adventure.
    • SEGMENT 2 ✨ | gets heavy into entrepreneur material. We talking about Action over Words, Going with your Gut, and the power of a Mastermind with other entrepreneurs. That leads into uncovering her new adventure ... Stand for the And Education Company. We break it down so much that I get excited about becoming a client!
    • SEGMENT 3 ✨ | finishes strong with words of wisdom from Melissa. She does a beautiful job of providing some landmark thoughts for entrepreneurs young and old. 

    Our Connection |  I was the DJ for Melissa and her husband Nick's wedding back in 2015 at the Firehouse Restaurant in Downtown Sacramento. Let's just say it was an EPIC night of celebration. That led to being the DJ at Melissa's brother's wedding in 2017. Along the way, I have tracked Melissa and her success as an entrepreneur. That's why she had to be on the show!

  • CRISTINA MENDONSA | KFBK Morning Shows Anchor + Mendonsa Media

    Send us Fan Mail

    CRISTINA MENDONSA spent 22 years as the evening news anchor at News 10.  A Carmichael native and a 30-year veteran in the world of news broadcasting, Mendonsa is currently the morning news anchor on the top morning show in Sacramento at KFBK and runs her own media company called Mendonsa Media. It is hard to believe that her and long-time co-anchor Dale Schornack sat in the News 10 chair for 19 years. But that all changed a few years ago when the company decided to go 'a different direction.' The two icons were no more. Didn't seem right. What is great about Cristina is that she could've been sad and gave up, but that simply isn't in her nature. You will love Cristina's story and will leave inspired!

    HOST STEVE BUZZARD on Cristina Mendonsa |  "This was truly an honor to have the opportunity to hear Cristina's journey. it was really good and full of incredible wisdom. I love the fact that each decision in her TV broadcasting career was intentional. We are truly fortunate to have Cristina showcase her talents here in Northern Calfironia.  Our conversation hits THREE areas: 

    • SEGMENT 1  🎙 | is dedicated to Cristina's current job as the morning news anchor on KFBK 1530 AM and 93.1 FM. As expected, her expertise along with the pairing of Sam Shane resulted in a morning show (5-9 a.m. M-F) that went from #12 to recently being named #1 in the area. Cristina gives us a behind-the-scenes look at her routine and what she experiences on a daily basis.
    • SEGMENT 2 📺 | highlights the business Cristina built a few years ago called Mendonsa Media. We talk about the pieces that were put in place to make the transition for not being at News 10 anymore to being a true entrepreneur. Then it gets fun when Cristina shares her journey in broadcasting. This is good stuff.
    • SEGMENT 3 💪🏼  | hits a lot of topics. Her TV co-anchor and friend Dale Schornack. Relationships between local stations. Everything surrounding "The Purge" (as Cristina likes to call it), Journalism. Sacramento. And of course, I couldn't leave without some pearls of wisdom from Mendonsa.

    Our Connection |  I can actually say that I have never had the chance to meet Cristina until our conversation. We connected through social media and Cristina was very kind to offer her time to do the podcast. I am glad she came aboard and shared her story.

  • BLAKE McCALL | Blake Charles Salon

    Send us Fan Mail

    BLAKE MCCALL has a great story to tell. McCall is the owner of the award winning Blake Charles Salon (formerly Joseph Cozza Salon) with locations in San Francisco and Granite Bay. Here is the best part. Going into the industry back in 2018, McCall knew nothing about hair salons. But what the Sacramento native was good at was professional development and what he has done in four years with a pandemic thrown in the middle of things has been truly remarkable and impressive. So how did he do it? We find out that answer and more today.

    HOST STEVE BUZZARD on Blake McCall |  "Blake is a great example of what the entrepreneur spirit is all about. I am really excited for anyone who loves entrepreneurship to listen to this episode. You will leave feeling inspired!"  Our conversation hits THREE areas: 

    • SEGMENT 1  💇🏻‍♀️ | starts with the obvious question ... how did you get into wanting to own a hair salon? Blake takes us through where he was before Blake Charles Salon and then the process in which he came across Joseph Cozza Hair Salon in San Francisco. Blake talks about all the necessary things he had to do to immerse himself into his new world.
    • SEGMENT 2 ✄  | dives a little deeper into the hair salon industry. Notably Hair Stylists. Blake discusses what it was like to build a team that was going to make Blake Charles an award winner. Let's just say that Blake trusted those who had expertise in the field. We also talk about hair salons during Covid and all of the navigation that took place as a new owner.
    • SEGMENT 3 💇🏽  | is full of great wisdom from McCall as we talk about life as an entrepreneur. McCall finishes by sharing some ideas he has for the future and like a true entrepreneur, the ideas never stop.

    Our Connection |  Blake and I go back over 20 years. I coached his brother in tee-ball at Eastern Little League. Blake was also one of my first assistant coaches at my Buzzardball Summer Camp back in the 90's. And lastly, I have taught his three daughters (Scarlett, Lily, and Taylor) at St. Michael's where I was a teacher for 26 years.

  • KELLIE DeMARCO | Kellie DeMarco Communications

    Send us Fan Mail

     KELLIE DeMARCO is a familiar face to many in the Sacramento area. For nearly nine years, DeMarco was the news anchor on KCRA Channel 3. Before Sacramento, she attended the University of Colorado and began her broadcasting career in Colorado Springs and Grand Junction before landing at Denver's KWGN. Once she got to Sacramento, it was clear that her talent shined as she earned Best Anchor Emmy's three times in her career as well as two Edward R. Murrow Awards for outstanding reporting. Then Kellie made a decision. She left TV news after 20 years for a new pursuit. Say hello to Kellie DeMarco Communications. How did DeMarco go from Colorado to California to a big shift in her life. We find out today.

    HOST STEVE BUZZARD on Kellie DeMarco |  "Kellie demonstrates the true entrepreneur spirit. She did something great for a solid 20 years. Within that, she was preparing herself for her current adventure where she could enjoy the balance of doing what she loves and maintaining a vibrant family life." "Today is full of great insights from Kellie!"  Our conversation hits THREE areas: 

    • SEGMENT 1  | begins with where Kellie is currently with her new adventure - Kellie DeMarco Communications. We then get into her life as a news anchor that included her move from Denver, Colorado to Sacramento. Kellie sheds light on why she decided to stay in Sacramento and we get into more details regarding TV news and how she took her experience into Kellie DeMarco Communications.
    • SEGMENT 2  | is packed full of great information. DeMarco shares with us one of her other side adventures - Seint Makeup where she has done very well with the 'side hustle.' In addition, DeMarco gives pearls of wisdom when it comes to being an entrepreneur. You will love this segment.
    • SEGMENT 3  | finishes off with a short episode of the Banter Bro ... Max Buzzard. Why? Well the other Banter Bro, Max's brother and my son ... Toph, along with his wife Bailey are expecting their first child. And I can report that we are still waiting. Max and I discuss the NBA Finals and the debacle that is the LIV Golf Tour.

    Our Connection |  My recollection is that we have met once along the way sharing a common friend Kara Turner, who I have DJ'd some family parties over the years.

  • SCOTT GILBERT | Getta Clue + Goodstock Clothing Store

    Send us Fan Mail

    SCOTT GILBERT has been doing his thing for 30 years! In 1992, a younger Gilbert opened Getta Clue Clothing Store which has been an institution in Sacramento when it comes to street fashion. In recent days, many might think of the iconic Spike Lee that serves as the entrance to Getta Clue in DOCO. The BIG NEWS is that Getta Clue is moving to Arden Fair to join Gilbert's other Clothing Store called Goodstock. This is nothing new to Gilbert, who shares that he has opened 21 different locations over the years. Today we find out his story.

    In today's episode of Experience the Buzz, Host Steve Buzzard spends time with the Sacramento fashion icon"I am amazed, but not surprised that Scott has been at the forefront of something very unique. He certainly has the entrepreneur spirit and has found a way to do what he does very well and over a long span of time. That's success in my books.  Our conversation hits THREE areas: 

    • SEGMENT 1 👟  | gets right into the journey of Getta Clue. We discuss the big move and what was behind closing the doors in DOCO and relocating to Arden Fair. And then we take it back to the very beginning when a summer in London changed everything for Gilbert. If you are a Sacramento native, you are going to recognize a lot of what Gilbert discusses. 
    • SEGMENT 2 👟 | is a great segment as we continue to talk about the evolution of Gilbert's stores that included the DOCO location and an amazing partnership with the Sacramento Kings. Then the discussion shifts to being an entrepreneur. This is where Gilbert drops some nuggets of gold to any entrepreneur listening. 
    • SEGMENT 3 👟 | finishes off a great conversation discussing the importance of mentorship that was established through Getta Clue. We mention a former ETB guest Mike Steeze, who sells his merchandise through Scott's store. Gilbert shares with us his childhood and takes us out strong with some finishing thoughts.

    Our Connection |  Scott's boys have participated in my Buzzardball Summer Camp. Scott also got me connected with Mike Steeze, who produces my favorite shirt (Sacramento Versus Everybody). Scott also gave me my first SVE t-shirt during the pandemic. Still have it to this day and have added at least seven more to the collection.

  • RYAN DUEY | Plunge - Cold Plunge Baths

    Send us Fan Mail

    RYAN DUEY and his business partner Michael Garrett are the owners of PLUNGE (It's a bath that has filtered water that starts at 39 degrees). With their  business based out of Lincoln, California Duey and Garrett did something pretty unique. While at an X-Games Event, the duo was asked to go on the highly acclaimed show that entrepreneurs LOVE (including me) ... SHARK TANK! It gets better. They got a deal with Shark Robert Herjavec. Imagine that. And today ... we find out that story and what is behind the success of PLUNGE.

    In today's episode of Experience the Buzz, Host Steve Buzzard gets giddy in his conversation with Duey, especially when it came to talking about the Shark Tank Experience. "It's one thing to go on SHARK TANK. It's completely another thing when you get a deal. I was in awe as Rob described the experience."  Our conversation hits THREE areas: 

    • SEGMENT 1 ❄️  is all about the product. We start with a history lesson on COLD PLUNGING (which has been around for a long time). Ryan describes how the PLUNGE product is made and what comes to your home when you make a purchase. Duey goes in detail about describing the benefits of doing the PLUNGE. 
    • SEGMENT 2 🦈 is completely devoted to the Shark Tank Experience. This is a full pull back the curtain discussion where Duey outlines everything leading up to walking through the infamous Shark Tank doors and hallway. We get all the details regarding their evaluation, reactions from the Sharks, the offers that were put on the table, and what happened once they landed Robert Herjavec. This is truly my favorite subject.
    • SEGMENT 3 | 🛁 Our final segment dives into Duey's personal journey and how he was able to connect with Garrett and eventually become business partners. Duey shares some celebrity moments associated with the PLUNGE bath. We finish with the power of win-win relationships and the DO'S and DONT'S of the COLD PLUNGE

    Our Connection |  I have a good friend Juan Beck who developed my websites. Juan purchased a PLUNGE bath a few months back. When I saw Ryan + Michael on Shark Tank I reached out to Juan. Beck shared with me that he knew the guys. Didn't take long to get connected and get Ryan on the podcast. I am grateful.

  • AMY VARAIN | Amy Varain Weddings

    Send us Fan Mail

    AMY VARAIN is regarded as one of the top wedding coordinators in Northern California. And in today's episode you are going to see why. Why hire a wedding coordinator? What if I told you it makes a huge difference because in Amy's case, she is there from start to finish and will act as the bride's twin in ensuring a couple's vision for their wedding. Amy is amazing and today we get a closer look on the life as a wedding coordinator from Varain.

    In today's episode of Experience the Buzz, Host Steve Buzzard allows Varain to take the reins and openly explain the importance of what she does "I told Amy I had expectations of how today's episode would go, and wouldn't you know ... it went over and beyond my expectations. That is the same thing that Amy shares with all of her couples ... going over and beyond."  Our conversation hits TWO areas: 

    • SEGMENT 1 💍  dives right in and addresses the top question, "why get a wedding coordinator?" Amy discusses in detail what sets her apart from other coordinators. In fact, we address the difference between a wedding coordinator and a site coordinator.  Varain talks about her responsibilities surrounding each couple she works with and the detail that goes into each of her weddings. Part of that is helping couples find great vendors (photographer, caterer, DJ, videographer, etc.)
    • SEGMENT 2 💍 begins with Amy sharing her work with destination weddings ... in Maui! (that's where she met her husband of now 20 years). Varain shares her background which comes directly from the corporate world. We talk about how couples find her and get a breakdown on the different packages she offers her couples. Fascinating information. Fascinating conversation.
    • SEGMENT 3 | BANTER BROS ARE BACK!  This week's installment of the Banter Bros focuses on the following subjects.
    1. Justin Thomas wins in exciting fashion at the PGA Championship
    2. Who are the faces of the NFL, MLB, and NBA

    Our Connection |  I worked with Amy for the first time at a wedding in August 2020. We discuss it in the podcast how impressed I was at how Amy was able to work with such ease. We have partnered together since that wedding and have logged a few more in a resurgent 2022 Wedding Season.

  • BANTER BROS GROUP CHAT | Max, Toph, Nick + Kirk

    Send us Fan Mail

    THE BANTER BROS PODCAST was the result of a group chat between four friends. Mostly sports-related, but truly no topic is off limits. I have had a peek into this craziness. And today, you get to meet the ORIGINAL FOUR. You know my sons Toph and Max Buzzard. They host the BANTER BROS PODCAST. Now add in Nick Hilton and Kirk Langley. That's right, we are bringing them to the podcast stage. Today is simple. Watch the Banter take place over some current sports topics. 

    In today's episode of Experience the Buzz, Host Steve Buzzard sits back and takes it all in. "My thought was simple. It made sense to bring the boys together. I had to put together large contracts to make it happen, but the good news is that we got it done. HAHA 😂"  The BANTER looks like this.

    • SEGMENT 1 🏀 begins with an introduction. Who is Kirk Langley and Nick Hilton. First topic. Basketball. Sacramento Kings get the #4 pick in the 2022 NBA Draft and we discuss Eastern and Western Conference Finals featuring the Celtics + Heat in the East and Mavericks + Warriors in the West.
    • SEGMENT 2 ⚾️ 🎶 focuses in on quick baseball takes. We find out the story behind Kirk's allegiance to the Raiders and Giants. And then things get spicy once we steer away from sports and talk music, specifically Drake vs. Kendrick Lamar. We finish up this lively episode with the best of the hot takes that have taken place in the Banter Bros Group Chat. It's good stuff!

    Our Connection |  Toph + Max are my boys. We have already addressed that one. I have known Nick since 3rd Grade and Kirk since 7th Grade. I have watched them grow up into fine young men.

  • KATE POHL | The Tiny Details

    Send us Fan Mail

    KATE POHL has always possessed the CREATIVE flair. She would put together special things for family and friends for special celebrations. That thoughtfulness turned into a business. And a good business it has been. Kate is a creative force when it comes to taking parties and celebrations to another level. This visual guy will tell you to go to her website at TheTinyDetails.Com and see for yourself. And today, you get to meet Kate and hear her story!

    In today's episode of Experience the Buzz, Host Steve Buzzard pulls back the curtain on the fun life of a party theme coordinator. "Nothing is off limits when it comes to what Kate is able to create. And I love that she says that each party is her favorite. That tells me one thing -- she cares!"  Our conversation hits TWO areas: 

    • SEGMENT 1 🎈 dives into the specifics behind the creation of Kate's business, The Tiny Details. Kate discusses how that something she did for friends and family's celebrations turned into a business. Kate also reveals what sets The Tiny Details apart from other companies like hers. It starts with thoughtfulness and personalization. This segment is such a good look into this type of business.
    • SEGMENT 2 🎉 starts with a story. Kate was featured on Good Day Sacramento. That led to exposure which led to more calls for Kate. But it's the calls that came in that you have to tune in for. It's good stuff. We then move into the power of advertising through social media. We finish out by talking about Kate's biggest challenges and her victories. 

    BANTER BROS ARE BACK! 🏀  This week's installment of the Banter Bros focuses on the following subjects.

    1. Sacramento Kings hire Mike Brown as their Head Coach
    2. Nikola Jokić is named the NBA's MVP
    3. Marvel vs. Batman. Toph loves Marvel. Max loves Batman. This should be FUN!

    Our Connection |  I met Kate when she had her very first party as a professional. It was a basketball-themed party and I remember how impressed I was with the 'detail' that was put into the items that accompanied the party. It was certainly a step above anything else I have ever seen at a kid birthday party!

  • TOPH + MAX BUZZARD | The Banter Bro's Sports Podcast

    Send us Fan Mail

    MY BOYS TOPH + MAX BUZZARD are back! In February 2021, my sons launched the Banter Bro's sports podcast. They got a solid 10 episodes in and then ... life happened. Today is an attempt at reviving what I think was a great podcast format. The Banter! If you are a sports fan or just like fun conversation, then you have come to the right place!

    In today's episode of Experience the Buzz, Host Steve Buzzard jumps in with the Banter Bros. "One thing that has always been fun with my boys is our discussions centered around sports. I missed it the most when my boys moved out to be adults. But today ... I get it back."  Our BANTER hits three areas: 

    • SEGMENT 1 🏀 kicks off the banter discussing the NBA playoffs. We give our hot takes on the final eight teams that remain in the discussion and provide our winning picks. I know you are on pins and needles.
    • SEGMENT 2 ⚾️ turns our attention to baseball. With the MLB back and one month of the season in the books, who do we like and what have been some pleasant surprises regarding the start of the MLB season. That bridges into a lengthy and heartfelt conversation about the team we love most as a family ... the Oakland A's.
    • SEGMENT 3 📺  finishes off with a non-sports related topic. Our top TV binges. If you are looking for a show to dive into, this will be a fun segment for you to listen to for sure.

    Our Connection |  Toph and Max are my sons. Haha. That one was easy!
