All Over The Planet Podcast

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! 

Call 'em BBQs or cookouts or grilling ... head down to the beach or kick back at the pool or float down a lazy river ... road trip to the shore or to an outdoor amphitheater ... there's nothing like the summertime for enjoying life to the fullest ... or unplugging and getting a little more sleep. Team AOtP covers it all +1 aspect of that June through August months which they just can't stand.

With less than 250 years under its historical belt, the United States of America still supplies a lineup of authors and playwrights worthy of any nation's literary lineup. Team AOtP presents their favorites.

Team All Over the Place takes a shorter than usual look in the music-minded nostalgia rearview mirror this week, running down our favorite debuts from the 21st century's first decade +1 album from a 20th century artist circa those years. Some mighty fine albums in such a short timeframe.

Up and coming rock star Mark Daly joins the All Over the Place "Second-Timer's Club," and shares stories about the making of his soon-to-be-released Devil's Arms album; his growing contingent of new fans courtesy a tour supporting Mr. Big; and getting ready to hit the road in the United States later this year with Richie Kotzen.   Check out official All Over the Place merch at: https://roundin-third-productions.launchcart.store/shop/all-over-the-place

Brass! How smooth (or punchy) can a song go? Saxophones, trumpets, and even cutlery abound as Team AOtP blasts out their favorite horns in songs +1 WTI -- What the Instrument?!?! -- in this week's Threefer!

Renowned producer/musician Danny Saber joins AOtP to tell us about the upcoming Boss Sonics release of the Michael Hutchence "One Way"/"Save My Life" vinyl picture disc. Saber shares stories of how the two men crafted songs distinct from Hutchence's legendary career as INXS' front-man and how the late singer's circle of friends, including Mick Jagger and Bono, respected and encouraged each other.

As spring graduation season kicks into gear, Team AOtP pays tribute to the three educators in +1 out of the classrooms who most greatly influenced us.

Special guest and newly christened to the AOtP "Three-timers" Club, multi-medium Zo Rachel joins the team for a Threefer of our favorite Saturday Night Live musical guests +1 which had us scratching our heads.

Bow-wow-wow, yippee-oh, yippee-a! Dogs and cats and chimps and aliens all living together relatively mass hysteria-free on the latest Threefer installment: our favorite movie and television pets +1 animal where we cannot find any amount of love. 

Jim and Eric pick up where they last visited the early days of AOtP as they run through an eclectic mix of current events: OJ Simpson's death; Jerry Seinfeld's standing up to cancel culture; the legacy of the influential "Attack of the Show!"; catching up with Wes Anderson's filmography; and a few other streams of consciousness.

Funsanity in full effect when Team AOtP combines the worlds of music and sports and takes some fantastical liberties reshaping bands via trades and free agency acquisitions. What if ... Freddie Mercury and Bob Dylan took on each other's songs? We're just getting warmed up!

The acting bug has been known to bite a typically music-minded performer through the years ... and some actors have tried their hands (and voices) on the music stage. AOtP shares a few of their favorites.

Red Reign's Sammy Lee brings the Power Rock noise to the latest AOtP, discussing the band's Don't Look Back album, the importance of connecting with their fans in concert and via social media, and his purist love for Van Halen.

Guitar virtuoso Uli Jon Roth takes All Over the Place #podcast beyond the limit as his Interstellar Sky Guitar tour of the United States gets set to kick off in April.

An absolutely retro-tastic All Over the Place as the team breaks out the quarters and drops them in their memory slots for a rundown of classic video arcade games with a +1 dedicated to the analog world of board games.
