Can't get enough of ABC's new series Shark Tank? Then dive deeper.

WalletPop's Editor-at-Large, Jason Cochran, dared to risk life and limb to hang with the Sharks. Instead of seeking an audience with the self-made multimillionaires to beg them for money, as budding businessmen do every Tuesday night on the TV show, he went into the room to grill them just for our popular AfterShark series (click here for lots of video interviews with the participants). They jawed for so long, and he got so much good stuff out of them, that we had to break the conversation into four parts -- to keep you on the hook, so to speak.

In the third segment, it's Barbara Corcoran's time to shine. She talks about a few of her success stories from the show and swats down any backtalk, all while lambasting her colleagues Robert Herjavec and Kevin Harrington for their "trophy wives" and inhuman business sense.


We've talked to all five Sharks. You can catch up on our video interviews with everyone at our AfterShark Page: www.walletpop.com/after-shark-tank.





Here's part one of our interview series:



Part two of our series, in which the Sharks explain why you need them to make money fast:
