    The 7 Year Bitch Part 1 - Gap Year

    The 7 Year Bitch Part 1 - Gap Year

    Playing on the term The 7 Year Itch, a phrase that describes feeling restless or dissatisfied in a relationship and life in general, typically at that seven-year mark, I traced back my feelings of restlessness and dissatisfaction with humanity and the world at large to seven years ago when in 2016, "The Donald" was elected president and forever changed the planet.  Seven years later in 2023, my 7 year itch has become an agonizingly painful rash from so much negativity, so much rude behavior, so much intense polarization, by so many people, and so many actions and activities hardening my once positive spirit like "The Donald’s" fast-food-blocked arteries to a level of frustration and aggravation that I could never have imagined. Here's Part 1 of what will be an ongoing series in The 7 Year Bitch BergsBrain podcast called...Gap Year.

    Guns N' Woes Is

    On this episode, with the recent and continuing round of mass shootings, I’ll look at the motive behind the worst mass shooting in American history, online porn’s amazing array of sex categories, a number of kinky fetishes from my home state of Ohio, the number one reason to dislike prop comic Carrot Top, and many, many more. So, jump aboard the train, get a little insane, gettin’ inside BergsBrain.

    Wherefore Art Thou Bryan Cranston

    On this episode, I tell the story of attempting to get two of my screenplays, Dogpile and 4F,  into the hands of actors and producers through non-traditional approaches since it’s nearly impossible to get it through the gatekeepers using conventional means.
