One Hit Thunder
“How Do You Talk to an Angel” by The Heights (f/ Jim Logrando and Trisha Novy)

One Hit Thunder

The Heights was a short-lived TV show about a diverse seven-piece band that aired on Fox in the early 90s. Each episode ended with a music video that kinda encapsulated the whole episode, and at the end of the pilot episode, a young actor named Jamie Walters sung a song so powerful that it would be the end of the road for, well, “End of the Road” from Boyz II Men's epic 13 week run at #1 on the Hot 100. “How Do You Talk to an Angel” would then become the show's theme song by the third episode, and this fictional band was topping the charts. Funny enough, the show is called The Heights, and the band lives in an undisclosed place called “The Heights”, but they never actually say that it's the band's name on the show. It's unclear if the band even had a name. It didn't matter. Despite the song's massive success, the show was canceled after 13 episodes, and we're left to wonder how many more hits the show could've spawned if Aaron Spelling hadn't given up on it. This week, we're joined by the married couple of Jim Logrando and Trisha Novy to decide if there were even MORE heights that could've been reached if this television band could've gotten that Season 2 renewal.

In this conversation with Randy Spelling — life coach of 18 years, son of legendary TV producer Aaron Spelling, and co-host of the Oldish podcast — Karena explores how growing up with fame and fortune still left him empty. He shares how addiction nearly took his life and how he rebuilt himself through somatic therapy, EMDR, inner child work, and learning to trust his own intuition. You'll gain practical tools for breaking negative self-talk, working with rumination, and taking the first steps toward real healing. What does real healing look like when you've already tried everything — and still hit rock bottom? Randy Spelling grew up inside one of Hollywood's most famous families, with every privilege imaginable — and still ended up at lost, searching for anything to dull the pain. In this deeply honest conversation, Randy walks Karena through the night that changed everything, the addiction that almost killed him, and the 18-year coaching practice he built on the other side of it. From inner child work to EMDR to rewiring negative self-talk, this episode is a masterclass in what it takes not just to survive, but to actually heal.

Laura Leighton takes us back inside the Melrose Place phenomenon and what it was really like to ride that wave before social media and smartphones changed everything. In this episode of Still Here Hollywood, Laura talks about launching the Melrose Place rewatch podcast Still the Place with Daphne Zuniga and Courtney Thorne Smith, why it feels so freeing to show up without a script, and the surprising emotional impact of revisiting a time that happened more than 30 years ago. Laura opens up about the cast bond that never went away, the real conversations happening around a potential Melrose Place reboot, and why creating your own opportunities matters more as Hollywood changes and roles for women narrow with age. She also shares the best thing that came out of Melrose Place, her 26 year marriage to co star Doug Savant, and what it means to raise a big family and now become a grandmother. You will also hear Laura on the shift from water cooler television to reality TV and TikTok culture, the strange new normal of being photographed everywhere, and why self tape auditions can feel harder than walking into a room. Plus, Laura tells two unforgettable stories from her career, a fan encounter so intense a nurse thought her villain character was real, and the heartbreak moment she had to drop out of a musical film role that later went to Renee Zellweger. She also reveals a major career decision she still regrets, turning down the chance to play Rizzo on Broadway. If you love Melrose Place, Aaron Spelling era television, 90s nostalgia, Hollywood behind the scenes stories, and honest conversations about career, fame, aging, and reinvention, this one is for you. 00:00 Reboot Buzz and Grandma Life Tease 00:56 Intro: Aaron Spelling, Nighttime Soaps, and Melrose Mania 02:21 Laura's Rewatch Podcast: Still the Place 03:04 Why Podcasting Feels Easier Than Acting 03:34 Rewatching Your 20s on Camera and the “Ick Attack” 04:21 Melrose Love Story: Meeting Doug Savant 04:52 26 Years Married and Raising Four Kids 05:10 Why Melrose Was a Cultural Phenomenon 05:27 Pre-Internet “Water Cooler TV” and Perfect Timing 06:17 Lightning in a Bottle: You Can't Manufacture It 06:53 The Reboot: Is It Really Happening? 06:59 Who's In and Why the Cast Still Feels Like Family 07:20 The Group Text, The Podcast Guests, The Real Bond 08:12 Churchill Quote: If You Want History, Write It 08:34 Aging in Hollywood and Steering Your Own Opportunities 09:03 Reality TV Changed Everything 09:19 The Early Reaction: “What Is This Crap?” 10:10 TikTok and Selfie Culture Is Not Going Away 10:28 Being Photographed Everywhere, Even at the Grocery Store 10:59 Social Media as a Tool, But Also Exhausting 11:59 Podcast Learning Curve: Why Rewatch Makes It Easy 12:33 Sets That Feel Good vs Sets That Don't 13:03 Fondest Melrose Memory: It Felt Like a Family 14:13 You Don't Fully Appreciate It Until Later 14:34 What's Next: Producing and Building Projects 15:30 The Joy of Becoming a Grandparent 16:13 Watching Your Kid Become a Parent 17:07 “I Told You So” and Moms Always Being Right 17:28 Holidays With a Grandbaby and the Photos 18:05 Nana Duties: Teaching Piano, LA Traffic Included 18:37 The Weird Fan Encounter: Nurse Thought Sydney Was Real 19:32 Being Too Convincing Can Backfire in Meetings 20:59 Which Show People Recognize You From Now 21:35 Melrose vs 90210 and Why People Mix Them Up 22:05 One-Word Cast Shoutouts: Heather, Rinna, Grant, Marcia 23:19 Cast Friendships That Stayed Warm and Real 23:43 Missing the Weekly “TV Family” Feeling 24:18 Leaving After Five Seasons: The Contract Turning Point 24:42 The Last Day: Fighting Tears 25:02 Rapid Fire: First Crush, Movies, Pizza, Worst Subject 29:09 Fame Before Cell Phones: Honeymoon Recognition 30:14 Fake Names at Hotels During Peak Fame 30:42 The Morning After Leaving: Relief vs Grief 33:34 Being Married to an Actor: Teamwork, Not Competition 34:10 Doug's Groundbreaking Gay Character and Pride 35:13 Aging in Hollywood and Fewer Opportunities 36:34 Self-Tapes: Why Auditioning Feels Harder Now 37:54 What Self-Tapes Took Away: Feedback and Connection 39:53 Steve's Acting Dream and the “Pajamas Job” Idea 41:15 The Role She Lost: Torn ACL, Renee Zellweger Replacement 43:12 The Musical Muscle She Wishes She'd Kept 44:36 TV Movies in Hiatus: The 90s Career Strategy 45:30 The Big Regret: Turning Down Rizzo on Broadway 46:14 Closing Thanks     Laura Leighton's Melrose Place rewatch Podcast is: STILL THE PLACE https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/still-the-place/id1754955354 Show CreditsHost/Producer: Steve KmetkoAll things technical: Justin ZangerleExecutive Producer: Jim LichtensteinMusic by: Brian SanyshynTranscription: Mushtaq Hussain https://stillherehollywood.comhttp://patreon.com/stillherehollywoodSuggest Guests at: stillherehollywood@gmail.comAdvertise on Still Here Hollywood: jim@stillherenetwork.comPublicist: Maggie Perlich: maggie@numbertwelvemarketing.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Off Topic: Der Podcast mit Roland Austinat und Jürgen Hüsam

Roland ist tatsächlich wieder in Deutschland und berichtet von einem Transatlantikflug mit Champagner und einem Sitznachbarn und Rugby-Star aus Tonga. In Essen dann sonnigstes Wetter und ein Konzertbesuch – so kann es weitergehen. In weiteren Nachrichten: Die drei ersten „Zork“-Abenteuer gibt’s jetzt legal zum Runterladen, Jürgen will die Abenteuer vom Drachen Kokosnuss per ChatGPT, Roland preist die Buchhandlung Reuffel und Jürgen erklärt, was der Begriff „letzter Hand“ bei Büchern bedeutet. Außerdem liest er weiter eifrig James-Bond-Romane und seiner Frau vor. Ein neuer Gitarren-Controller im Gibson-Design? Nun gut. Ein neues Heimcomputer-Remake in Form von Sinclairs Spectrum? Schon besser. „Outlaws Remastered“? Jürgen hat’s durchgespielt. Roland löst immerhin Spiele ein und berichtet von den Golden Joystick Awards. Während Jürgen in gewohnter Manier „Magnum, PI“ und „Future Man“ schaut, jubelt Roland über den Start der siebten Staffel von „Don Matteo“, dem kauzigen Kleinstadtkrimi mit Terrence Hill. Und da „DSDS“ immer noch spurlos verschwunden ist, muss die neuste Staffel von „Bauer sucht Frau“ für die nötige Dosis Reality-TV sorgen. Um die neueste Folge von „Das Traumschiff“ sind wir gerade noch herumgekommen: Sie erscheint erst am Tag nach der Aufnahme. Dafür tauchen wir in die US-Vorlage „The Love Boat“ von Aaron Spelling sowie dessen Serienwerk ein und feiern die allerletzten Folgen alter und neuer TV-Serien. Kein Wunder, dass Jürgen „Assassin’s Creed Shadows“ immer noch nicht und „Syberia Remastered“ nur zur Hälfte durchgespielt hat. Roland ist nach wie vor mit „Honkai: Star Rail“ unterwegs und sortiert wie in „Sokoban“ kistenweise Brettspiele. (Aufgenommen am 22. November 2025)

Remember Donna the Deer Lady, and her call to a radio talk show that electrified the nation?To refresh your memory, she was wondering why the highway department place the "Deer Crossing" signs at the busiest sections, where the deer were most likely to get hit by a moving vehicle. “Why are we encouraging deer to cross at the interstate? I don't get it. That's a high- traffic area,” she said.That's exactly the kind of oddball story that grabbed me from minute one with Todd Cherches — a man equipped to wring out profound and useful truths from tales like that one.Todd is not your typical leadership guru—he earned his stripes in Hollywood, teaching actors how to deliver scenes, and later as a project manager sketching theme parks in China.These days, he coaches executives and trains leaders using what he calls visual leadership—a way to help people "see" what you're talking about, not just hear it.In this episode, Todd unpacks how metaphors sneak into everyday chat (“Feed me, Seymour!” anyone?), why a CEO fetching potato chips for the staff says more about leadership than a big speech, and how to stay real and connected when half your team is working in slippers on Zoom.Show HighlightsHow a radio caller's confusion about a deer crossing sign turned into a killer leadership metaphorWhy metaphors are baked into 50–70% of our language—and how to notice when you're spooning them outTodd's Hollywood adventures—including delivering lunches for Aaron Spelling and battling Mt.
