Rattlesnake Suitcase's Jarrod and Cap'n Zack slide onto AOtP in anticipation of their upcoming "Eddie Van Maiden's Big Jukebox Show" tribute to Van Halen, Iron Maiden & Sabbath/Ozzy at Phoenix's Rebel Lounge on 12-27. Lovers of the craft *and* the buck, Jarrod and the good Cap'n sink their teeth into the respect they have for the musicianship of 70s rock & roll while also reveling in the tongue-in-cheek cheese n' sleaze of the 80s Sunset Strip scene. No alcoholics nor any dull moments here.

Deck the halls and loosen your waistbands as AOtP clears the cupboards and liquor cabinets in a Threefer inspired by our favorite delicacies, desserts and drams. Hit the gym in January ... or not.

Night Terror frontman Jason McMaster breaks down the monster riffs, thundering rhythms, and wailing vocals behind the band's Return of the Witches EP, before he shatters any preconceived notions that heavy metal maniacs can't appreciate and respect being as influenced by Elton John and David Bowie as KISS and Iron Maiden.

Gone way, way too soon, we celebrate the many films & roles of the hilarious, heartwarming, and versatile John Candy.

Consummate melomaniac Peter Jesperson returns to All Over the Place to share stories from the road and audience reaction to his debut book, "Euphoric Recall," before gifting us with the ultimate insider's perspective on the recently released Let It Be boxed set, the latest deluxe edition from the mighty Replacements catalog.

Whether you're tripping a nostalgia switch for drive-ins, tapping into a perpetual fix for a favorite comedy/sci-fi/drama/etc., and/or honoring a beloved actor, everyone has their go-to comfort movie. As Team AOtP runs down their top Threefers and a few honorable mentions, we'd love for you to share some of yours in the Comments ...

The Fell's lead singer Toby Rand brings his band's high-octane energy to All Over the Place as he cranks out the stories behind the making of their recently released KILLSWITCH EP; how his Australian upbringing influenced his decision to pursue a life in rock and roll; having a front-row seat to create music with bass virtuoso Billy Sheehan and guitarist/producer wunderkind Mike K; and much more!!!

Welcome to the charmed life of Rick Hughes, a rock and roll lifer who always seems to find himself in fortuitous situations, from meeting Robert Plant in the 1990s to assembling Ozzy Osbourne's Speak of the Devil band to jam out a killer version of The Who's "The Real Me" on his latest album. Rick shares stories from the making of Redemption, how he stays loyal to his French-speaking fans, and tips for fellow rock singers on maintaining longevity in their vocal chops. Hear more tales involving Robby Krieger, AKA AOtP's version of Walter Mitty, too!

Enjoy a blood-curdling, macabre, and creepy Threefer before Team AOtP lightens the Halloween mood with their +1 selections.

Chaoseum's CK Smile kicks back with AOtP to discuss creating their latest album, Life 4 Sale; sharing the stage with their heroes old and new; navigating the diverse regional audiences in their native Switzerland; and much more. chaoseum.com

Filmmaker Matt Engelbert takes AOtP on a deep-dive into the making of his award-winning feature film debut, the family-collaborative What Tomorrow Brings, including the guerilla-style manner of shooting scenes on the fly, playing the part of protective father, and experiencing Midwestern gratitude from the communities where they filmed. Bonus post-film discussion follows as Matt delves into the adventures his eldest children enjoyed with famed songwriter Jim Peterik.

Guitar legend Steve Hackett pays AOtP a return visit in anticipation of his latest North American tour. A celebration of Steve's impressive solo catalog, 50 years of the landmark The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, and a selection of other Hackett-era Genesis classics, it's a show you won't want to miss!!! Tickets available at www.hackettsongs.com.

AOtP goes international again this week, welcoming Australian film critic Matt Pejkovic. Matt brings us stories of the rise from his early days of blogging takes on the plethora of movies he'd watch every week, across an evolution of 19 years interviews and more reviews of new movies, all leading to the latest stage of his career: steering clear of a devolving movie industry in order to concentrate on classic movies, decades, directors, and faith-based films.

As the Penn State football season kicks into second gear with this weekend's Whiteout game, we are ... honored to host AOtP vets and Nittany Lions Steve Davis and Dr. Justin Williams, who brought along fellow lettermen John Lewchenko and Paul Gabel to discuss their JoePaLegacy.org initiative. Established in part to honor Coach Paterno's widow Sue's wish to restore his statue to the Penn State campus, the lettermen also want Nittany Nation and the public to understand what Joe's decades in Happy Valley meant to the university, Pennsylvania, and far beyond. "This is an intergenerational project conducted by Joe's former players to honor Joe Paterno's lasting impact. We invite you to visit joepalegacy.org and discover 'The Joe We Know" and share the story so the Grand Experiment lives on."

Cinesylum's Aaron Hudson ain't 'fraid of no ghosts and it honestly wouldn't surprise us if he had a few specters chilling out in his office during his visit with AOtP. A movie aficionado going on four decades, and a killer horror movie party host with the most, step inside for a discussion on Aaron's cinematic obsessions and how he and his Cinesylum team keeps the Phoenix area frightfully entertained as many times a month as possible.

Spinal Tap II: The End Continues may not have been the sequel/reboot/requel we wanted, but Team AOtP's glad we collectively have more than two hands to effectively supply our takes.

On a recent AOtP we veered into a brief discussion about TV show spinoffs, ultimately deciding to make a complete episode Threefer out of it. Accidental kismet and coming soon ...

We're effectively holding the A.I. barbarians at the gate for the moment, but you never know if and when they'll breach the AOtP wall.
