Podcast appearances and mentions of John Denver

This episode is sweat, wood, and wire. Tommy Emmanuel explains why he plays for the humans in the seats, not the guitar forum in the balcony. How youthful shred became musical conversation. How he built an audience by hand with posters and tiny ads until the rooms couldn't hold it. He tells the story of the exec who laughed at “no market for instrumental music,” then the John Denver arena run that shut everyone up. Then it gets legendary. A kid from Australia writes Chet Atkins in 1966, lands in Nashville years later, and day one turns into a marathon jam with Chet and Lenny Breau. Yes. That happened. Along the way you'll hear hard earned lessons on building a career, touring, tone, and trusting your gut. If you're into acoustic fingerstyle guitar, Nashville stories, Chet Atkins lineage, or just a killer Tommy Emmanuel interview, you're in the right place. Hit play, share it with a friend.

A one-pound ranger changed my whole ride. I rolled into Rocky Mountain National Park at dusk, layered up at 8,000 feet, and let the quiet find me—wind through pines, a slow river in Endo Valley, and the sharpest voice of the night from a tiny Albert squirrel telling me to move along. That small interruption opened a bigger conversation about how we listen, how we ride, and how we care for the places that move us.I talk about the practice of letting your ears adjust to wild spaces—how silence isn't absent, it's layered—and why I teach that to guests on tours. From there, the road bends toward responsibility. We touch the ache of seeing endless sprawl from the air and the jolt of hearing a single loud exhaust erase a canyon's calm. Marvin Gaye's Mercy Mercy Me becomes a clear-eyed warning that still echoes today, while John Denver's Rocky Mountain High gives language to the surge of joy that leaves you small beneath 13,000-foot peaks and somehow more at home than anywhere else.This is a love letter to riding and a call to ride with care: tuning for quiet, leaving no trace, choosing routes and habits that honor wildlife and fellow visitors, and backing it up with support for the National Park Foundation and local volunteers. Motorcycles can be more than machines; they can be tools that help us understand the world and our place in it. If nature's chorus is already singing—the stream, the breeze, the elk, even a fierce little squirrel—our job is to add harmony, not noise. Subscribe, share with a friend who loves the open road, and tell me: what sound of the wild stays with you?

After a short delay, we're back! And just in time, too. Because it's... the time of year... well, you get it. We are, after ten years of doing this dang show, finally covering "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" by Andy Williams! And if you prefer the noodley 00s-era indie kinda bullshit we love to cover over the mid-century classics, you'll love "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" by the Polyphonic Spree! The ranking music in this episode is "When the River Meets the Sea" as performed by John Denver and Robin the Frog.

3pm: I Was Thinking: Aaron’s Unforgettable Friday // This Day in History: 1975 - Singer Charlie Rich protests John Denver’s big win at the CMA Awards // 1997 - John Denver dies in an aircraft accident // Curley Farms is officially out of pumpkins for 2025

EPISODE 742: (with Christine Schiefer of "And That's Why We Drink) This Halloween, something spooky this way swaps. In this very special Paraween Host Snatchers edition of The Box of Oddities, Kat is joined by the delightfully haunted Christine Schiefer of And That's Why We Drink—because JG has mysteriously vanished (probably abducted by science or a mothman, TBD). Together, Kat and Christine unpack the glowing enigma of the Brown Mountain Lights—the unexplained orbs that have haunted Appalachia for over a century. Are they ghosts? Aliens? Passive-aggressive lovers stuck in a centuries-long spat? Or just bioluminescent squirrels playing god? We explore all the theories—ball lightning, swamp gas, folklore, fungal rave dust—and somehow make room for 1913 dental ads and an impromptu John Denver roast. Whether you're a fan of high strangeness, ghost lore, or just want to hear Christine and Kat lose it over the phrase “globular form,” this crossover episode is a Halloween-season must-listen.

A short review, because I just watched Netflix's "My Father, the BTK Killer" and I need to talk about it.This isn't another documentary glorifying a serial killer. This is Kerri Rawson's story. She's the daughter of Dennis Rader, the BTK killer who murdered 10 people over nearly two decades while pretending to be a normal dad.Imagine finding out your Boy Scout leader father, who danced with you to John Denver and took you on family vacations, is one of America's most notorious serial killers. That's Kerri's reality. And 20 years later, she's still processing it.This show hit...differently. Because it's not about him. It's about the wreckage he left behind. The family trying to make sense of the senseless. The daughter asking herself how she didn't see the monster living in her house.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-a-true-crime-podcast--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilDiscord: https://discord.gg/X2qYXdB4Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.

Colorado fans - the witches throw down their coveted opinions on their home state: the Centennial State! Next week, they'll talk CO "fun facts"! For now, join the witches and the ghost of John Denver for Rocky Mountain High, Part One: Shelley, Lysa and Darryl!

Believe it or not, it's been 40 years since the P.M.R.C. senate hearings. For the young 'ens, The Parent's Music Resource Center was an organization of Senator's wives that were all about censoring music they didn't like. The Senate hearings were a momentous occasion when Frank Zappa, Dee Snider and John Denver (!) stepped up for Freedom Of Speech. Recently it was the anniversary of this dark day for democracy. So we decided to do a deep dive into the hearings. As well, we go over ringleader Tipper Gore's "Filthy 15". A list of "controversial" songs that got Tipper in a tizzy. This is probably our most politically charged episode yet. In our "News, Views and Tunes", we acknowledge the anniversary of the loss of the late, great Cliff Burton. Musically, we crank some Impaler (one of Tipsy's faves), Piledriver, Black Death, Tipper's Gore, Victim and we introduce (Canada's answer to The Mentors??) Powerload in our "Indie Spotlight". Horns Up!!  

"Oh my God!" wasn't just Joey Styles's famous catchphrase in ECW, it's also what many wrestling fans exclaim when something wild happens like a crazy spot or a surprise appearance. On this episode, Andrew is joined by first-time guest and actual pastor Josh to play songs with the word God (or Gods) in the title. They don't have to be religious songs, just the word will do. Artists played include Queens of the Stone Age, Ida Maria, Monsters of Folk, Coldplay, Beach Boys, Def Leppard, John Denver, and many more. Despite a nightmarish amount of scheduling and technical issues that went into recording this episode, it's still a lot of fun, so give it a listen!Theme song: "Hemispheres" by Silent PartnerBluesky: @MusicoftheMat / @justandrewAll VOW podcasts, articles, previews, and reviews: VoicesofWrestling.comJoin the VOW Discord to discuss Music of the Mat and other shows/topics: VoicesofWrestling.com/DiscordDonate to Music of the Mat and other VOW podcasts: VoicesofWrestling.com/DonateAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Is this an appropriate time to talk about censorship? How about freedom of speech? How about the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States Of America? We didn't plan it this way but history is rhyming in a big way right now, so we're actually glad to be taking a narrow-eyed look back at the past. 40 years ago this month Washington was abuzz with pending legislation to make laws determining some music obscene and ripe for censorship. Tipper Gore and her Parents Music Resource Center had the government all up in your business in 1985, and thankfully three REAL free speech warriors - Twisted Sister's Dee Snider, Frank Zappa and the unlikeliest of heroes, our man John Denver told Congress TO THEIR FACES to back off. Tipper's crusade against arbitrarily-deemed "filth" yielded ATTT a project. The so-called "Filthy Fifteen" is a list that's ripe for review, and the ATTT All-Stars are more than up for the task of ranking these songs using our patent-pending Worst To First format. Picks 7-1 are featured here in Part 2. If you missed Part 1 and the, uh, "worst" part of the list in picks 15-8, listen up here:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-686-tipper-gores-filthy-fifteen-worst-to-first/id573735994?i=1000726746433LIsten up and listen well to the official Tipper Gore's "Filthy Fifteen" Worst To First playlist, featuring all (available) songs heard in Parts 1 & 2:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3dcC3hNJMhA4U5DQheUPws?si=dcca6c2e382843bdIf you haven't watched them, do yourself a favor and check out Frank, Dee and John's testimony from 1985:Frank - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgAF8Vu8G0w&t=126sDee - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0Vyr1TylTEJohn - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MH0hYabzudkOur All-Stars are always up to stuff.

Fire up the Time Machine, people—Dave and Milt are going full throttle back to '75, and it's a funky, feathered-hair free-for-all. On this Past Tens episode, your fearless hosts trash-talk, gush, and generally geek out over Billboard's Top 10 from September 27, 1975. Bad Company growls, Sweet glitters, and somewhere in there Dave derails the whole thing with a personal “I almost died in a hospital gown” story. Milt, ever the Chartmeister historian, connects the dots between these jams and the cultural circus of the mid-'70s, while Dave sprinkles in snarky asides, dad jokes, and a rant or two about sandwiches. They bounce between rock, funk, country, and schmaltz, drop a few under-the-radar nuggets, and even debate whether Glen Campbell's Broadway references were about, y'know… actual Broadway. Then it's Playdate time: Dave throws down a Generation X Rock Hall challenge that makes Milt sweat. By the end, they're arguing about whether this whole lineup deserves a permanent plaque in the Time Machine Hall of Fame—or just a polite golf clap. Timestamps for your nostalgic pleasure: 00:00 – Past Tens roll call 00:25 – Sandwich rambling commences 01:34 – Dave's hospital misadventure 06:05 – Time Machine ignition 07:06 – Top 10 countdown starts 13:52 – Bad Company brings the thunder 20:59 – Sweet turns the glam up to 11 28:56 – Freddie Fender's tear-stained road trip 34:52 – Famous Freds ranked (because why not?) 35:12 – Fender deep dive 36:01 – Janis Ian breaks every heart in the room 40:23 – Seventeen-year-old angst songs dissected 48:31 – Barry Manilow achieves… let's call it a musical climax 54:09 – Gen X Rock Hall face-off 01:04:19 – “Run Joey Run” and the tragedy of teen melodrama 01:12:22 – The Isley Brothers get funky 01:14:19 – Disney, algorithms, and mild outrage 01:14:53 – Tragic news + media gripes 01:19:10 – Glen Campbell mysteries solved (or not) 01:22:54 – Bowie goes funky chic 01:29:06 – John Denver's swan song 01:33:12 – Wrap-up, wisecracks, and reflection

In 1985, a group of powerful "Washington Wives" led by Tipper Gore formed the PMRC to clean up rock and roll, sparking a culture war that culminated in a dramatic Senate hearing. This episode of Rock N Roll Archaeology, "The Three-Body Problem," performs a forensic autopsy on that manufactured moral panic. We explore how the unlikely, chaotic alliance of John Denver, Dee Snider, and Frank Zappa dismantled the PMRC's case piece by piece. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

40 years ago this week our nation was under assault by forces of evil. These forces were conspiring to control artists and take away Americans' constitutionally-guaranteed rights to freedom of expression. In the halls of the United States Senate, three righteous warriors - Frank Zappa, Dee Snider and John Denver - stood up for artists and free speech by directly confronting the evil in power. The evil in power were the so-called "Washington Wives" - spouses to powerful Senators that were weighing a bipartisan violation of the first amendment to the constitution. The head of this clan otherwise known as the PMRC, or the Parents Music Resource Center, was the dreaded Tipper Gore. In the name of "protecting children" Tipper and her friends aimed for censorship. In the process, they gave us a weird but fascinating playlist they dubbed "The Filthy Fifteen" - fifteen songs they deemed to be obscene. This playlist is worth another look, and ATTT has decided to enlist our friends the ATTT All-Stars to give it our patented Worst To First treatment. Shannon Hurley, Gabe Scalone, Joe Lavelle, Matt Dinan and David Daskal were on hand to rank these songs and wax poetic about what a fucked up time the Reagan years were. Picks 15-8 are featured here in Part 1.If you haven't watched them, do yourself a favor and check out Frank, Dee and John's testimony from 1985:Frank - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgAF8Vu8G0w&t=126sDee - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0Vyr1TylTE John - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MH0hYabzudkOur All-Stars are always up to stuff.

Prolific songwriter and country artist Hardy joins us for a different kind of Blurry Creatures episode, sharing his most chilling paranormal experience - a months-long haunting that began after he discovered an untouched Native American campsite along the Cumberland River.

We welcome Moosie Drier, one of the most familiar young faces of 70s and 80s TV and film! Moosie takes us back to a time when child actors were a tight crew who worked and auditioned for roles together, forging friendships, supportive rivalries and shared memories.Alongside fellow child actors like Lance Kerwin, Brad Savage, Ike Eisenmann, and Matthew Layborteaux, Moosie carved out a place in show biz history, beginning with his very first job at age five: dubbing the voice of a tiny actor who was not quite nailing the line in an ice cream commercial. Armed with that professional gravitas, Moosie went on to play Jack Lemmon's step-son in The War Between Men and Women and John Denver's kid in Oh, God! starring George Burns. He then delivered the Kid News For Kids on Laugh-In (as young staff writer Lorne Michaels tucked away the whole fake news idea for what would become Weekend Update!)Moosie spills tea on working with Henry Fonda (Hank liked the View-Master. Hated the kids.) Moosie shares how Barbra Streisand hand picked him for a bit part in Up The Sandbox, and evidently, Moosie is gifted with a face you'd want to serenade. Both John Denver and Reba McEntire picked up guitars and sang to him between scenes.Plus we get some Drier family lore. How his family struck out from Chicago for California in search  of industry opportunities. About the tax hole that welcomed Moosie into adulting. And the strange baby name saga that resulted in a boy named “Moosie.” Today, Moosie continues to connect with his peers through his podcast Pop Culture Retro, where conversations are a blend of interviews, fellow child-actor therapy and catching up over lunch.All that, plus a round of IMDB Roulette which takes us from Kids Incorporated to Family Ties to Judy Garland to The Bob Newhart Show to American Hot Wax! It's a life and career chock full of charm, challenges, and timeless Hollywood moments.And in current media -- Weezy: Sullivan's Crossing on NetflixFritz: The Mark Twain book by Ron ChernowPath Points of Interest:Moosie Drier on WikipediaMoosie Drier on IMDBMoosie Drier on InstagramPop Culture Retro on Apple PodcastsPop Culture Retro on InstagramPop Culture Retro on XPop Culture Retro on YouTubeSullivan's CrossingMark Twain by Ron ChernowMedia PathMedia Path on FacebookMedia Path on InstagramMedia Path on XMedia Path on Bluesky

When I was in college, studying to become a minister, I came across a Bible tract titled something along these lines: “How to witness for the wrong side.”  In the picture was a smiling, John Denver look-alike young man, casually dressed.  He had the word “Jesus” in large letters across the front of his exaggerated cowboy hat; additionally, there were Bible Tracts in his hands, and falling out of his pockets, with all sorts of snarky comments about non-believers, and even obvious insults aimed at those of various political positions that were considered ‘unchristian,' by many in the Church.             The point was clear – When Christians try to proclaim the Gospel message to the world, they need to be sure they are proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus, instead of insulting comments on political issues, or words that have almost nothing to do with the Gospel message!             This true story brings me to ask a question:  As a believer, does your life proclaim the Gospel of Jesus?  Are you sure you understand what is, and is not, the Gospel message?  And, finally, how does the Gospel message affect one's life when it is truly accepted into one's heart?                  There is a story in the Bible regarding a “true believer” of the Jewish faith, who, out of religious zeal, had begun to persecute members of the Church.  The man was a Pharisee named Saul, who was walking towards the city of Damascus to seek out and persecute Christians.  Here is where the story picks up:   “And it came about that as he journeyed, he was approaching Damascus, and suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him; and he fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to him, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?  And he said, “Who art Thou, Lord?”  and he said, “I am Jesus whom you are persecuting, but rise, and enter the city, and it shall be told you what you must do.”  Acts 9:3-6.  Those with Saul took him to Damascus, where God led one named Ananias to explain the Gospel message to him and show him the path to life with God.  The ‘rest of the story,' of course, is that of Saul receiving Christ, becoming a traveling evangelist for Jesus, and writing much of what became the New Testament!             One of the most interesting elements of this story is that Saul, who later became known as Paul (the Roman version of his name), was an active Pharisee in the Jewish faith.  He believed in God, and he fought for what he thought was the true faith – but the true faith included Jesus as the fulfillment of the Law.  He didn't understand that he had been proclaiming and defending what was now the ‘wrong' faith; the true faith was now Judaism, as fulfilled through Jesus!  Saul, before his encounter with Jesus on the road to Damascus, was a witness for the wrong faith, because it was a faith that was not centered on the message of salvation through Jesus.             Here's what we can learn from Saul's experiences:   Let us make sure we correctly understand what the Gospel is that we have been given to proclaim!  The Gospel we have been given is the message that Jesus, Son of God, God in the flesh, came and lived a sinless life, died on the cross to pay for our sin, and was risen from the dead to show God's power over death.  Then he ascended into heaven, to be seated with God on the throne of heaven, to reign over all things forever. Salvation comes when we believe the truths of the Gospel and receive Jesus as our Savior, committing our lives to Him.  The Gospel is not an opinion one might have on abortion, immigration, or any other political or social topic – it is the message of salvation in Jesus!   It is acceptable to express an opinion on any topic, of course, but if the goal is to proclaim the Gospel and lead people to Jesus, then they must focus on the truth of the Gospel and not on one's opinions concerning the social issues of the day.   To live as a Christ-follower involves a change in the direction of our lives!  In the story of Saul, you will later learn that he took his Roman name, Paul, because he knew he would be more effective in reaching the Roman Gentiles if he carried it rather than the Jewish name Saul.  This was a huge concession for Paul to make!  In his Jewish tradition, one's name was a sacred gift; to change it meant that, for Paul, his life of proclaiming the Gospel had taken a major change in direction and purpose.  When you accept the responsibility of proclaiming the message of Jesus, you must consider what can help you be more effective in that task.  Perhaps you might work on your social skills, or even ‘bone up' on ways to share the message of Jesus effectively.  Or, you might begin to focus on the needs of those around you, instead of judging those who have fallen in their lives.  Regardless, Paul demonstrated the genuine commitment required to lead others to Jesus.            Let me encourage you to follow the example of Paul and choose to share the message of Jesus with others.   Your support is invaluable in spreading our ministry.

We're celebrating our 10th anniversary all year by digging in the vaults to re-present classic episodes with fresh commentary. Today, we're revisiting our 2017 conversation with Vince Gill. ABOUT VINCE GILLMulti-instrumentalist, singer, and songwriter Vince Gill launched his solo career in the mid-1980s, hitting the Top 10 on Billboard's country singles chart a remarkable 25 times. All but one of those hits was written or co-written by Gill, and a dozen of his compositions have been nominated for either CMA Song of the Year, ACM Song of the Year, or the Best Country Song Grammy. These include “When I Call Your Name,” “Look At Us,” “Pocket Full of Gold,” “When Love Finds You,” “High Lonesome Sound,” “If You Have Forever in Mind,” “Feels Like Love,” and “Threaten Me With Heaven.” “Go Rest High on That Mountain” won both the CMA Song of the Year and the Best Country Song Grammy, while “I Still Believe in You” won the Best Country Song Grammy, as well as both the CMA and the ACM's Song of the Year awards. Though he's won four in total, Vince is the only songwriter to ever win three consecutive Song of the Year awards from the CMA. He has won more Grammy awards, with over 20 trophies, than any male country performer in history. These include two Best Country Song wins, as well as a 2017 win for Best American Roots Song for “Kid Sister,” which was recorded by Gill's band, The Time Jumpers. He has won eight ACM awards and 18 CMA awards, including Vocalist of the Year five years in a row and Entertainer of the Year two years in a row. Other highlights from his long list of hit singles include the #1 hits “Don't Let Our Love Start Slippin' Away,” “One More Last Chance,” and “Tryin' to Get Over You.” In addition to writing his own material, Vince's songs have been recorded by Loretta Lynn, Bob Seger, John Denver, Mary Chapin Carpenter, John Prine, Willie Nelson, Michael McDonald, LeAnn Rimes, and Alabama, who topped the country charts with his “Here We Are.” Vince was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2005, and the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2007. In 2014, he was named a BMI Icon, one of only twelve country writers ever honored with the prestigious award.

Lyle Lovett joined Billboard's Behind the Setlist podcast to discuss his love for live performances, the amazing musicians who join him on stage, and his career spanning over 45 years. He shared his early days at Texas A&M, where he booked acts and played covers, and his transition to performing original songs. Lyle also talked about the importance of audience connection and how his approach to storytelling was influenced by artists such as Michael Martin Murphy and John Denver. Lyle Lovett and His Large Band are currently on tour in the U.S. through August 7. Lyle and his Acoustic Group will perform in Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Scotland in late August. Episode summary: [2:54] Lovett reflects on his early college days at Texas A&M, specifically starting to play music in 1976 and his involvement with the basement coffee house, a small, student-organized live music venue that spurred his introduction into programming and performing shows.[6:00] Lovett explains his first gig outside college—a summer 1976 steak and seafood restaurant performance in Houston—and how he began by playing songs from Texas singer-songwriters like Willie Nelson, Guy Clark, and Townes Van Zandt, which taught him the principles of songwriting.[11:19] Discussion about playing covers versus originals, with Lovett sharing the transition from focusing on audience-friendly covers in restaurants and bars to venues like Anderson Fair Retail Restaurant in Houston, which encouraged original music and helped grow his songwriting skills and confidence.[13:37] Lyle explains what he learned performing during his early years, particularly how to endure as a live artist: handling distractions, accepting audience reactions, and growing through moments where people came specifically to hear him rather than just attending for the venue.[15:32] The evolution of storytelling and humor in Lyle's performances, inspired by watching other singer-songwriters like Michael Murphy and John Denver, and how Lyle incorporates personal connections and humor into his live shows.[18:49] Discussion of audience interactions, including an anecdote where Lovett introduces his band members on stage, blending humor and intimacy to create an engaging experience. He emphasizes the importance of making the audience feel connected to everyone on stage.[26:10] Lyle talks about breaking genre expectations early in his career, navigating challenges with radio stations categorizing his music and credits MCA Nashville for their support and belief in his diverse sound.[29:48] Insights into Lyle's passion for music education, including his experiences speaking with and mentoring young music students. He emphasizes the importance of loving music for its essence and staying grounded despite the challenges of being a professional musician.[32:03] Lyle touches on scheduling large band tours around summer breaks and how he integrates musicians with academic careers, like professors in his horn section, into his performances.[34:35] Lyle shares how he balances playing live, managing tour schedules, and prioritizing time with his children, frequently flying home on tour days off to be present for school events and family activities.[38:05] Reflections on how having both an acoustic group and a large band allows him to play in various markets, driven primarily by economic considerations and creative flexibility in his tour planning.[42:20] Final thoughts on the economics and logistics of setting up a tour, explaining how these practical concerns shape his choices while keeping the performances creatively fulfilling.

Some interviews take a while to drop in, and while the information might be supportive, the soul connection never occurs.  I was able to instantly drop in with Scott Grace, even having moments of silence, simply pure connected appreciation where there was nothing to do, nowhere to go... simply bask in pure presence and intimacy :-) And we laughed our faces off! I was in rapture as he continued to sing to me! In this high-frequency conversation, we also discussed... - How is it that he gives himself over to Spirit and is able to download lyrics that inspire people  - How Scott's songs can blast somebody's heart open on their birthdays or anniversaries, or inspire a huge crowd at a personal growth event - How the traditional educational path was not honoring of his genius, and how he bravely followed his knowing - How his understanding and embodiment of the Divine Masculine has shifted over the decades - How his Spiritual Dr Seuss video went viral, inspiring millions and confirming his gifts for this planet - How having your very own Affirmation song can be such an exquisite morning practice to greet the day in your power, joy, and freedom - And we got up to some multi-dimensional mischief, magic, live music, and dancing over on Patreon during the after-the-show episode... ➡️ Go check out patreon.com/allanapratt for Exclusive content! About Scott Grace:   Scott Grace, who has been described as a cross between John Denver, Robin Williams, and Dr. Seuss, is wanted by the authorities for creating peace, as well as defying the law of gravity with levity. Contact with Scott is likely to be hazardous to your misery, as he has provoked outbreaks of joy in four out of five laboratory humans. It is alleged that Scott's work has so threatened to cut into the sales of anti-depressants that pharmaceutical companies have offered him millions to retire.  Scott gives keynotes using a stolen identity, a.k.a. the Spiritual Dr. Seuss. His feel-good videos on YouTube have infected over 2.5 million people with just four of his Seussian videos. Scott has been known to practice life coaching without a license, eluding the police by working on Zoom. He fancies himself an intuitive channel who smuggles wisdom and guidance over the border from beings he calls spirit guides, who are also not licensed, and who have allegedly not filed a tax return in several lifetimes. As a front, Scott does do various legal, above-board activities. He has written four books, his latest being Mindful Masculinity. Scott also has recorded nine CDs (remember CDs?) of his original music and comedy. He presents as an inspirational guest speaker and singer at churches, non-profits, schools, and corporate events. As an occasional stand-up comedian in the Bay Area, he has shared the stage with Dana Carvey and Robin Williams.  But don't be fooled. His rampage of Song Portraits, custom-made, personalized song gifts that honor people for their birthdays, anniversaries, or for no reason at all, has been killing people softly with their song since 1987. Authorities would very much like your help in apprehending Scott.

We're celebrating our 10th anniversary all year by digging in the vaults to re-present classic episodes with fresh commentary. Today, we're revisiting our 2017 conversation with Jimmy Webb. ABOUT JIMMY WEBBJimmy Webb emerged as a superstar songwriter and arranger in 1967 when two of his songs – The 5th Dimension's “Up, Up and Away” and Glen Campbell's “By the Time I Get to Phoenix” - were among the five nominees for the Grammy's Song of the Year award. He went on to write a string of major hits for Campbell, including “Wichita Lineman,” “Galveston,” "Where's the Playground Susie,” “Honey Come Back,” and many others. Additionally, he penned “MacArthur Park,” which was a hit for a diverse range of artists, including Richard Harris, Waylon Jennings, Tony Bennett, Andy Williams, and Donna Summer; “The Worst That Could Happen,” which was a Top 5 hit for The Brooklyn Bridge; “Didn't We,” which was recorded by Thelma Houston, Frank Sinatra, Diana Ross, and Barbra Streisand; “All I Know,” which became a Top 10 hit for Art Garfunkel; “The Moon's a Harsh Mistress,” which has been recorded by Joe Cocker, Judy Collins, Linda Ronstadt, and Josh Groban; and “If These Walls Could Speak,” which was recorded by Glen Campbell, Amy Grant, Nanci Griffith, and Shawn Colvin. Others who've covered material from the Jimmy Webb songbook include Diana Ross, Dusty Springfield, Nina Simone, The Four Tops, Roberta Flack, The Temptations, The Association, Tom Jones, Dionne Warwick, Cass Elliot, Harry Nilsson, Nancy Wilson, Cher, Bob Dylan, The Everly Brothers, Nick Cave, John Denver, Kenny Rogers, Sheena Easton, David Crosby, Rosemary Clooney, Michael Feinstein, R.E.M., Aimee Mann, America, Aretha Franklin, Isaac Hayes, Peggy Lee, Bette Midler, James Taylor, Carrie Underwood, Dwight Yoakam, and The Highwaymen (consisting of Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, and Kris Kristofferson), who took Jimmy's song “Highwayman” to #1, earning him a Grammy for Country Song of the Year. As an artist, he has released more than a dozen albums. One of the most celebrated songwriters on the planet, Jimmy is the only individual to win Grammy awards for music, lyrics, and orchestration. He was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, and the Great American Songbook Hall of Fame. Additionally, he has received ASCAP's Lifetime Achievement Award, the Influential Songwriter Award from the National Music Publishers Association, and the Academy of Country Music's prestigious Poets Award. In 2015 he was named among Rolling Stone magazine's 100 Greatest Songwriters of All Time. Jimmy's memoir, The Cake and the Rain, details his formative years and early career through 1973. It's available now from St. Martin's Press.

“There was always a way that music could speak to me,” says Youth Lagoon's Trevor Powers. “I was really shy as a kid and I had a lot on my mind that I didn't know how to get out. And music felt like one of those cheat codes where I felt like what I could say through one song was a lifetime worth of what was in my brain that I couldn't say any other way.” I was instantly captivated by Youth Lagoon's music when I first heard it more than a decade ago: Trevor Powers' plaintive, childlike voice, the dreaminess and heady sonic textures of his music, the candor in his storytelling. In the years since the Boise, Idaho artist's 2011 debut album, he has continually deepened his ability to make music that soothes and haunts at the same time. His latest album, Rarely Do I Dream, is his best yet, and one of my favorite LPs of 2025 so far. In the conversation in episode 121, Trevor talks about how discovering a trove of old home movies helped inspire the new album, and remind him of the importance of finding the true feeling at the center of a memory. He also discusses growing up hearing artists like Elvis and The Beach Boys and John Denver while being homeschooled, before finally being exposed to bands like Korn and the Offspring and Blink-182 when he eventually attended high school, and later discovering artists like My Bloody Valentine and Oingo Boingo thanks to his uncle introducing him to more cutting edge music. “There's always something that's coming in that's changing not only my thought process, but there's something internally that's awakening my spirit in these new ways and pushing me in all these different directions,” he says. “There could be an endless amount of lifetimes and I can't get it all out, what's up here.”Trevor also shares why he decided to "kill off" the Youth Lagoon Project several years ago, and to instead record under his own name for awhile, and why he chose to resurrect the moniker back in 2022. Youth Lagoon is on tour in the U.S. until mid-May. Get more info here.

On the anniversary of Jennifer's mom's passing, Linda stopped by for a chat about the process. That is - 'How do people offstage reach out to people onstage with coincidence or bits and pieces of memory, so we know they still exist?" In this case, she reminded Jennifer of a dream that she had where she'd seen her parents line dancing - the memory of seeing them doing that cowboy style.  That came out of a conversation about how my wife was aware of being visited by someone who popped the lyrics of John Denver's song into her mind - to not only remind her that he's visited her before, but that the lyrics have a special meaning to him. So Sherry went onto this person's web page, and indeed, back in 2012 they'd posted the lyrics to the song as it held some kind of special resonance to them. So the question is - how do you do that? This led to a discussion of how I'd done a guided meditation with a woman (it wasn't asked for, it was a demonstration) where she had all kinds of mind bending people come through, but at the end of her session I casually asked where in Manhattan she was living - and it turned out to bein the same building I lived in for a year back when I was producing pieces for the Charles Grodin show on CNBC. So the question went to Luana - "is that a coincidence, or is it something else?"  And that led to a discussion of how time works on the flipside - that people who are offstage often report that it feels like "time doesn't exist" - and a discussion of how Dr. Greyson notes in his NDE research that even those who experience that feeling do so sequentially.  That is - time does exist when meeting someone first, then the next person, then having another event occur. As noted, people like Jennifer, who is open to conversing with people offstage, can have a better view of the likely outcomes since so many are aware of what she's doing. However, that doesn't mean that people will learn something that will prevent their plan of learning that experience during this lifetime - or it won't alter someone else's path that is going to involved as well. As usual, mind bending stuff. Then Steve Jobs stopped by.  fans of our work know that he's been stopping by since Jennifer and I first met - and subsequently one of his family members has worked with Jennifer, so she's had enough conversations with him so I can kind of "skip down" or ask questions not about him, but about other people. In this case, I asked about people in the tech world who are convinced that consciousness is confined to the brain (someone like Bill Gates or someone like Elon Musk whose focus and aim includes a belief that consciousness is confined to the brain and the "known universe." Jennifer reminded us that the previous week Stephen Hawking had said that he "wished he had been aware of how consciousness worked" while he was still on the planet.. that he could have been able to bypass the filters on his brain and access other dimensions, or previous lifetimes. He's been showing up in our work since he passed - and the transcripts of those chats are in the books BACKSTAGE PASS TO THE FLIPSIDE and also on our podcast by searching for "Stephen Hawking" on the podcast. He also stopped by during a multiple person conversation - I'd invited four scientists, Sagan, Tesla, Einstein and Hawking - all who are available now on the flipside, and can answer questions about "who greeted them when they crossed over" and "what they've learned since being offstage." Interesting enough, Steve had advice for Bill Gates (other than saying "he's been through enough difficulties") - but advised that he'd have to "believe that we could talk to Steve" before he could "hear any advice."  As to Elon - about how he might change his attitude about empathy being a hindrance to civilization (as opposed to it's dependence upon it) - he suggested "playing a sport" - and specifically which one, it was "car racing" - as he'll learn he has to depend on others to succeed.  (Interesting idea).  First and foremost he said "He needs to take up a sport - not buy a team - but to participate in a sport." It's not opinion, theory or belief that people can access loved ones offstage - it's what I've been filming people doing for over fifteen years (FLIPSIDE, TALKING TO BILL PAXTON and HACKING THE AFTERLIFE are on amazon prime or gaia) and ten years with Jennifer every week - where we ask the same questions to people offstage, and sometimes I'll have other mediums ask them identical questions. (Hawking was interviewed by Dr. Medhus on her program and said the same basic things, in the film TALKING TO BILL PAXTON I had three mediums ask him the same questions - and all of them reported identical answers. The point being - there may be some other worldly explanation how a medium can answer the same questions when I'm not in the room and someone else is asking those questions (a blind study) but I'm not aware of how. Again - Jennifer works with law enforcement agents nationwide on a number of cases. A third of her day is pro bono work.  You can find her at JenniferShaffer.com and also at "Uncorked" events in Manhattan Beach. You can find me at RichardMartini.com - or send an email to MartiniProds at gmail.com to book a session where we talk to loved ones offstage. I asked Luana if the Pope wanted to come forward, both Jennifer and I held our breath - until she said "two meetings in the future."  (We'll see if he's up for it then).  Since it was Earth day we spoke a little bit with folks offstage about how we can change the planet. Thanks for tuning in!

In dieser epische Musikzeitreise episode of Past Tens: The Top 10 Zeitmaschine, your trusty hosts — Herr Doktor Dave and Der Wilden Miltmeister — strap on their sonic lederhosen and dive kopfüber into the Billboard Top 10 Albums for the Woche ending April 12, 1975 — ja wohl! With all the precision of a Bavarian clockmaker and the subtlety of a bratwurst cannon, they analyze und rocken diskutieren legendary platten from musikalische titans like Led Zeppelin (or as they say in Munich, Blei Zeppelin), David Bowie (Der Dünne Weirdo), John Lennon (Der Friedensbringer mit der Brille), and Earth, Wind & Fire (Erde, Wind und Feuerkraft!). This episode is vollgepackt with music history, lustige Anekdoten, and enough nostalgia to fill a beer stein the size of Düsseldorf. Dave und Milt pay tribute to the unterschätzte Helden — unsung heroes like Minnie Riperton (Die Göttin der Hohen Töne) and Robin Trower (Der Gitarren-Zauberer von Essex). Of course, it wouldn't be a Past Tens episode without their patented spielfreudige Segmente like The Play Date (Das Spielzeit-Quiz!), where they test each other's Rock und Roll Gehirn on song trivia — and The Substitution (Der Platten-Tausch!), where they boot an album off the list like a rude tourist from Oktoberfest and replace it with a beloved verlorene Klassiker. This episode is ein absoluter Ohrenschmaus for music lovers who appreciate both the Mega-Hits and Tiefe Schnittwunden (deep cuts) from the golden, shag-carpeted glory of the Mid-70er Jahre. Mach schnell! Put on your headphones, grab a frothy beverage, and crank up Past Tens: The Top 10 Zeitmaschine! Jawohl, baby!
