Host Bob Merrick dove in head first to the Hollywood scene thirteen years ago, working on such films as Wild Wild West, Deep Impact, Cast Away, What Lies Beneath, Three Kings, 13 Going on 30, Rent, and Across The Universe, just to name a few. In 2005, he wrote a bi-weekly column called Love Handles for Out.com, chronicling his struggles with body image and finding love. Having formed deep relationships along the way with notable Hollywood personalities, it was only a matter of time until he found the right platform to share his passion for pop culture. With an authentic and larger than life personality, big heart and open mind, Merrick’s character is a natural fit as a host. In addition to cameos in Kathy Griffins My Life On The D-List and VH1’s My Fair Brady, Merrick is excited to have recently completed filming for Richard Simmon’s upcoming DVD, Sweatin’ to the Oldies 5, where he is one of the featured dancers.
Host Sherry Layne is a Los Angeles-based comedy writer, improviser, teacher, and clown (red nose and all). She studied film and television production at Chapman University, earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts, and improvisation with iO West and Upright Citizens Brigade, earning a fine, artsy bachelor, but she had to share him with the rest of the class. A prolific storyteller, Sherry constantly collaborates on projects in a variety of media including theatre, film, television, and the web. She performs with the clown troupe Everybody Nose and the long form improv team The Ark. In lieu of sleep, she teaches workshops across southern California and beyond (also known as New Jersey).
Originally launched in 2008 as a live video show, The Baub Show was reinvented as an Internet radio show in June of 2009. In October of 2011, inspired by the growth of a loyal and respectable following known as ‘Baubles’, The Baub Show has found a new home at Global Voice Broadcasting and is part of a new media platform that allows listeners to stream the show live anywhere they can access the internet.
