Hiya dear listeners! The final episode of “Super Funk-in Serious with Sparkle Sid” will be posted on Thursday, December 17th…But don’t you worry darlings and galpals! The podcast will be revived in a fresh new format and a new name… Stay tuned for the official announcement very soon!As we prepare some exciting things for season 2, I want to give you a little sneak preview of a regular segment we will introduce called “The SIDcom,” a condensed history, sketch-based introduction to a person or piece of media that inspires Sparkle Sid. It also captures the spirit of variety shows from the 70s and the sitcoms that he grew up with… hence the name! Just call me a Carol Burnett/Gary Colman mélange….One day, I will become the next Cher as I climb the podcast social ladder and find my Sonny Bono!

I hope you enjoy this new segment as we incorporate it into a fully formed and fresh season that begins January 21st, 2021! I am “Super Funk-in” excited that you have joined me this season and hope you stick with us as we turn the focus onto the guest!

And now… On to today's SIDcom!

SURPRISE! Please enjoy a little HOLIDAY SAMPLER tidbit from a recurring segment we will be introducing for season 2… The Dossier!

Recently I had the privilege to virtually sit down with Patrick Joseph Boston (aka TRISSSH bish) to cheeky chat. We also taped a time-sensitive holiday-themed version of “The Dossier” where I show and tell photos of my favourite celebrities who have inspired Sid, but with a holiday slant!

The Dossier will be a video-based bonus feature only accessed by Patreon subscribers… COMING SOON!
