All Over The Planet Podcast

Musician and producer Danny Saber returns to AOtP to update us on the success of the Michael Hutchence "One-Way"/"Save My Life" picture disc released earlier this year, and how its popularity spurred Danny to release a maxi-CD single of "One-Way," bringing in some amazing friends and re-mixers to honor Hutch's legacy!

AOtP gets political this Election Day, but nothing involving either candidate or parties. Rather, we opt for cinematic intrigue, espionage, terrorism, and the occasional explosion before an appreciation of the David Zucker-directed "An American Carol," oft-maligned but deserving of more love than it initially received.

Hey, man, turn it up! Jeffrey Bryan takes a break from his gig with the award-winning K-Tel All-Stars Band's Totally 70s Show to return to All Over the Place for our latest Threefer: a rundown of our favorite supergroups before we construct respective supergroups of our own. #nostalgia #1970s #1970smusic #1970songs #1970sfilm #1970stv #music #musician #countdown #lists #shorts

Actor and producer AJ Laird returns to All Over the Place for a Threefer celebrating the genius of "Weird Al" Yankovic. Not the parodies which Al is better known for, though. Instead, we're running down our favorite style songs +1 deep cut we think more people should know. Will we stomp weasels? Do we get lost on the nature trail to Hell? Are you stuck in a traffic jam? It doesn't matter because your horoscope for today says to put on your polka face and listen to All Over the Place Episode 315.

Author/Inspirational Speaker/Songwriter Lisa Caprelli blesses us with a visit grounded in her Christian faith.

Learn more about Lisa's amazing projects at https://linktr.ee/unicornjazz.

Movies, how we love thee ... Hollywood, not always. Fortunately, enough filmmakers know how to spoof the movie-making industry and less-than-creative process behind the scenes. Grab some popcorn and kick back as hosts Jim and Eric share a few of their favorites.

Nektar's founding member Derek "Mo" Moore and his bandmates Ryche Chlanda & Maryann Castello bring us tales from the making of their latest album, Mission to Mars; the enthusiastic response to the new songs on the tour; and how they plan to continue adding to the band's 55-year legacy.

As the 50th season of Saturday Night Live approaches -- and Jason Reitman's "Saturday Night" movie gets released sooner than originally planned -- Christian Toto re-joins Team AOtP with a 3fer of Unsung SNL Cast Members +1 favorite era of the show.

Before joining Team AOtP in a Threefer rundown of our favorite band and album influences from our parents +1 attempt which fell flat, Jimy, Adam, Luke, and Mike from Freedom Rockets return with an update on a very busy year since their first visit: a mini-tour en route to SXSW with Tommy Stinson before a whirlwind week in Austin playing at all hours (their own sets *and* as Tommy's backing band) and rubbing elbows with music royalty; opening for Everclear; and more East Coast gigs supporting their recently released American Trash debut album!!!

With the 2024-25 academic year upon us, All Over the Place runs down our favorite things about going back to school!

  Sam Mitchell, host of the Autism Rocks and Rolls podcast, joins AOtP for a fun and informative conversation about his mission to break down the unnecessary walls and stigmas attached to those on the autism spectrum. A dynamic personality and keynote speaker across the country, Sam also breaks down why he loves professional wrestling and how he booked the legendary Jake "The Snake" Roberts on his podcast.

Cristofer Pereyra, CEO of Tepeyac Leadership, Inc., blesses All Over the Place with a visit full of Catholic and Christian virtue. In addition to reminding us of our evangelistic missions to spread the Word in all walks of our lives, Cristofer also encourages interested listeners to attend TLI's upcoming Hour of the Laity conference (www.THLconference.org), designed to inspire non-clergy to accept stronger roles of faith-filled leadership in their communities and in the culture.

Author Chris Raymond visits to tell us about "Men in White: The Gutsy, Against-All-Odds Return of Penn State Football," his debut oral history chronicling the rise, rebuild, and restoration of the Nittany Lions' program from 2012-2016. During a time when the aftermath of the events surrounding Jerry Sandusky and the NCAA's egregious penalties had most people in the college football world giving Penn State up for dead, a dedicated group of players, led by not only two head coaches who continued the "success with honor" mantra instilled by the legendary Joe Paterno, but by their sense of brotherhood and commitment to each other and the school, proved the doubters and critics 100% wrong, winning the B1G Conference championship within five years.

Geri Jewell joins AOtP to discuss her latest book, "Geri's Jewells and Gems," and spread her unique brand of positivity as she shares stories from her groundbreaking and legendary career as an actor, stand-up comedian, motivational speaker, and activist.

Recovering politician and guitarist-for-hire Thaddeus McCotter joins AOtP to bring us up to speed on his myriad of writing gigs at American Greatness (amgreatness.com), Chronicles (chroniclesmagazine.org) and Bright (getbright.substack.com) before adding his quick and acerbic wit to the Team's rundown of our favorite songs for hanging at the pool or beach with a drink in our hand (toes in the sand) or cruising around town with little to no cares on warm nights.

Cameos typically add an extra level of excitement to a movie. Whether it's a nod to a past role or an actor/actress popping up out of the blue, with or without a wink and a smile to the camera, AOtP covers their three favorites +1 which fell a little flat.

William Keck, a one-time tabloid journalist bad boy, relates how his "When You Step Upon a Star" book chronicles how his lifelong love and affection for the actors and actresses he watched on TV and in movies evolved throughout his career. From participating in whatever devious plan could land him a story to eventually developing a respect for the celebrities he once chased, as well learning how to reveal long-hidden aspects of his own life, William always gives enquiring minds what they want to know.

All Over the Place celebrates the awe-inspiring awesomeness known as the United States of America's National Parks and Monuments, from sea to shining sea.

Dedicated to their bosses, movie henchmen bring menace, muscle, and downright dread to the screen -- and the really great ones possess all three (or even more). Heroes beware as Team AOtP runs down their favorites!
