Wendy Liebman and Jeff Sherman Live on Game Changers With Vicki Abelson

I could have talked to Wendy Liebman and Jeff Sherman all night and still have asked for more. What fun! With the advantage of knowing each other for some years, the conversation was animated, spontaneous, and effortless.

We talked about the curse of Ventura Blvd and two life-altering accidents pre-pandemic, readying these happy-to-be-home-together lovebirds for what lay ahead. We discussed PTSD, emotional trauma, panic attacks, acceptance, and healing. Armed with great ‘tude and an attentive husband, Wendy weathered what could have been a disastrous 14 months with grace and resolve. And, managed to be productive, as did her caretaker, who did basically everything, and I do mean everything for much of the time. Jeff also managed to stay productive. What the hell was I doing? Binging Netflix, eating crap, and well, this thing right here.

We talked grandkids, dogs, masks, travel, theatre, vaccines, and how one Jeff took as a kid impacted musical theatre in perpetuity. We got a behind-the-scenes track of his doc The Boys, about his father and uncle, the Sherman Brothers, masterful prolific hitmakers, and their actual relationship away from the music and the biz.

Wendy, a psychologist in the making, gave us the skinny on the seemingly random turn that turned her life around and led her exactly where she was intended to be. Her random, hysterical, off-the-cuff comments bring home the point. The woman was made to make us laugh. And boy did she. Jeff’s no slouch neither. I won’t tip my favorite line of the night, but I did just quote it with credit!

They jointly filled us in on how they met. Cute, as they say in the movies. Their romance would make a great one.

Jeff brought it home with a great Monkees story, how he and Micky became best of friends, and how he almost orchestrated TV history. I offered my history with them. Two uber Monkee fans, fanning out.

You can catch Jeff’s Doc, The Boys, on Disney + and Wendy’s Too Tall For TV, on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Wendy-Liebman-Taller-TV/dp/B00IXWFON0

Time flew and we barely scratched the Liebman/Sherman surface. I foresee a Part 2 in our future. Loved every single second.
