QUOTES FOR REFLECTION“Truth is not something we possess; it is Someone who possesses us.”~Dietrich Bonhoeffer “Christianity is not a set of ideas, but a Person who walks before us and calls us to follow.”~Timothy Keller “To follow Jesus is to discover that life itself has a direction.”~Dallas Willard “Truth is not found in a principle but in a person—Jesus Christ.”~N. T. Wright “The central pronouncement, ‘I am the Way,' is profoundly significant within the chapter as a whole, for it states in so many words what Bunyan knew, that ‘the way' is not what Thomas thought it was, a literal route or pathway, but a Person, Jesus himself. The destination, accordingly, is not a place (not even precisely ‘my Father's house'), but also a Person, the Father himself.”~J. Ramsey Michaels “The road to heaven runs through the cross.”~Billy Graham “Where is the highway to heaven? Where is the love we all need? Where is the peace we long for? Where is the man who is free?”~ John Denver, “Hold On Tightly” SERMON PASSAGEJohn 14:1-14 (ESV) 1 “Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. 2 In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. 4 And you know the way to where I am going.” 5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?” 6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him.” 8 Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.” 9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father'? 10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works. 11 Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else believe on account of the works themselves. 12 “Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father. 13 Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it.”

The story goes that folkie John Denver was just 22 years old when he played at Arizona's Lumber Mill Club in Scottsdale and met a girl named Bobbie Wargo.The two had much in common. Both grew up in military families. Both were musicians and aspiring songwriters. Both were looking for love.And love was what they found as they played together at her parents' piano. It was for her that John wrote one of his first songs. And “For Bobbie” was to be the first original tune that Denver ever recorded. I'll walk in the rain by your side, I'll cling to the warmth of your hand…Bobbie Wargo may have contributed to the song's lyrics; there is evidence that she also might have been the inspiration for his next song, “Leaving on a Jet Plane.”(All of this was half a decade before John Denver met the iconic “Take Me Home, Country Roads,” recorded it and, as reported here earlier, became forever an honorary Mountaineer.)“For Bobbie” was, as Denver later told writer Deborah Evans Price in American Songwriter magazine, “an early attempt to order my romantic thoughts.”The Song's Recording HistoryThe song was first recorded by the Mitchell Trio under the truncated title of “For Bobbi” in 1965, the same year in which Denver joined the group, replacing founder Chad Mitchell who had moved on to a solo career.The following year the song took a whole new turn when Mary Travers (of Peter, Paul & Mary) rechristened it “For Baby” and recorded it to honor her young daughter Erika. Travers changed the meaning to reflect a mother's love for her newborn, and this version gained significant popularity. The song appears on the 1975 Peter, Paul & Mommy, Too album as part of a medley entitled “Poem for Erika/For Baby” That wasn't PP&M's first outing with it; nine years earlier, in 1966, “For Baby (For Bobbie)” appeared on the group's sixth studio release called simply Album.Meanwhile, Denver himself re-recorded the song — this time also listing it as “For Baby (For Bobbie)” — on his popular 1972 Rocky Mountain High, his first Top-10 album.In the seven years between Denver's first and second release of the song, a half dozen other artists covered “For Baby (For Bobbie)” including Bobby Darin (1966), Dion and the Belmonts (1967) and Anne Murray (1968).Our Take on the TuneOne of the first tunes that Charlie Bowen and his cousin Kathy Castner did when they started singing together more than 30 years ago was Denver's lullaby-like love song. So it's only natural that “For Baby (For Bobbie)” is in the mix whenever Kathy gets to make one of her rare trips from Cincinnati to Huntington to sit in with the band. Here's a take on the tune from last weekend.Since Flood harmonicat Sam St. Clair couldn't make it that evening, we corralled the player whom Sam lovingly calls his “overstudy,” the incomparable Jim Rumbaugh, to sit it and bring some memorable solos.And Now From the Wayback Machine…Oh, and want a little trip down mem'ry lane? Here's a video of a For Baby Moment that Pamela Bowen caught almost a decade and half ago:From the summer of 2011 in the Bowen House, this performance is complete with sweet solos by Dave Peyton and Jacob Scarr.

¿Por qué Rosalía, en pleno 2025, mantiene una pegatina “Parental Advisory” en una portada minimalista como LUX? ¿Es obligatorio? ¿Es técnico? ¿O es un símbolo cultural que seguimos usando sin saber de dónde viene?En este episodio, Borja y Eva viajan a los orígenes del famoso sello: desde las audiencias de 1985 en el Senado de EE. UU. —con Frank Zappa, Dee Snider y John Denver enfrentándose al pánico moral de la época— hasta su transformación en icono del rap, pasando por su impacto en el diseño, su función (o no función) legal, y su mutación estética en la era del streaming.Explicamos cómo nació como un pacto político improvisado, no como una ley; cómo mutó de advertencia a símbolo de rebeldía y después a cliché estético; por qué hoy, en la era del streaming, lo que realmente manda es el metadato “Explicit” y no la portada; y cómo esta pegatina, lejos de ser un simple trámite visual, altera el diseño, añade tensión gráfica y puede incluso transformar la narrativa de un álbum. También exploramos cómo el rap lo convirtió en una medalla de autenticidad, y por qué su presencia en LUX vuelve a abrir el debate entre estética, intención y mensaje.

In hour two, reaction to the Miami Dolphins going for a TD on the 1-yard line instead of kicking a field goal - bold or just a dumb move? John Denver is the NFL's International Game anthem. The history of the Grey Cup halftime show.

Send us a textOn this Episode Tom and Bert discuss the "Famous" California Session Musicians known as "The Wrecking Crew"!During the infancy years of Rock n Roll Music way back in the 1950's and 1960's many of the major Recording Labels like Columbia, Capital and Warner Brothers were trying to record great music tracks at their sound studios. Since many of the U.S.A. Acts were out west in Los Angeles the Label Managers wanted to enhance the recordings of many of the groups and bands so they decided to hire session musicians or as we would say "Real Pro's".... to lay down the "Music" and record with the artists.That's where the "Wrecking Crew" created their magic and excelled! It shows the impact that this group of pro's had on such artists as The Beach Boys, The Mama's and Papa's, Sonny and Cher, The Byrds, The 5th Dimension, John Denver, Elvis, The 4 Tops, The Supremes, Simon and Garfunkel and Stevie Wonder and many, many more.Here is their Story!CHAPTERS:(:55) Intro - The Music behind the "Hits"(1:12) Here are the Wrecking Crew!(14:15) Notable Songs recorded with the "Crew"(21:23) 100 MORE songs and our comments(34:14) Netflix' 2014 Movie Documentary ---MUST see TV!(37:51) Billboard Magazine's Top Artists Charts, Music Facts and Trivia and that's a Wrap!!Enjoy the Show!You can email us at reeldealzmoviesandmusic@gmail.com or visit our Facebook page, Reel Dealz Podcast: Movies & Music Thru The Decades to leave comments and/or TEXT us at 843-855-1704 as well
As always when Kim Jong Duh is in (what's left of) the white house, the scandals and nightmares come far too quickly and numerously for me to keep up. This song is about air traffic horribleness from earlier this year... and it seems appropriate to drag it out now, with the air traffic controllers on furlough (which might be over before this song gets to you). Oh well. You know me... I have to parody this classic John Denver song every few years. I think this is the fourth one. Wow. Music: John Denver Words: SG and Niamh Bagnell Guitar, mandolin, bass, piano, arrangement, production: SG
1. Inspiration Beyond the BrainThe book challenges the materialist view that creativity is a left-brain, analytical function. Instead, it presents music as a right-brain, paranormal process. Many iconic songs are received through instantaneous “downloads” or vivid dreams. Keith Richards famously dreamt the riff for “(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction,” even recording his snoring afterward. These dream-sourced compositions often arrive fully formed, with clarity unlike typical dream content.2. Musicians as ChannelsMany legendary artists describe themselves as vessels rather than creators. John Lennon said he was “just the channel” for the “music of the spheres.” Michael Jackson believed his best songs were “works of God” that dropped into his lap. Notably, Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and Jimi Hendrix couldn't read or write music—suggesting that genius may bypass formal training and arise from external sources.3. A Historical PatternThis phenomenon isn't limited to rock and pop. Classical composers also reported receiving music from beyond. Mozart described his compositions as arriving “almost complete” in dreams. Brahms spoke of entering a trance-like state where ideas flowed “directly from God.” Such accounts suggest a long-standing tradition of non-local inspiration.4. UFOs and MusiciansThe book documents a striking number of UFO encounters among musicians. If cataloged, the list would include hundreds of high-profile names. John Lennon had a daylight sighting in 1974; Mick Jagger saw a UFO over the crowd at the 1969 Altamont concert. 5. Alien OriginsSome musicians believe they are extraterrestrial in origin. John Denver referenced the constellation Lyra as his home. Elvis Presley claimed he came from Orion, saying, “I am not of this world.” Lee Scratch Perry declared, “I am an alien from outer space… from Krypton.” Kurt Cobain expressed a lifelong feeling of being “homesick,” imagining himself as an alien baby found in a spaceship.6. Messages of Oneness and LoveThe themes expressed in music often mirror those reported by UFO experiencers. The central message is Oneness—the idea that all existence is interconnected. Lennon's lyric “I am he as you are he as you are me…” reflects this unity. His slogan “Love is the Answer. What was the Question?” and the anthem “All You Need is Love” serve as spiritual propaganda for this shift from fear to love.7. Environmental and Nuclear WarningsA recurring theme is planetary survival. Musicians often channel messages warning of ecological collapse and nuclear danger. Neil Young's “After the Gold Rush” describes “silver spaceships” rescuing the chosen ones.8. Targeting YouthMusicians are seen as strategic messengers to reach younger generations—the “ultimate swing voters.” Youth are more open to ideas that transcend traditional structures like religion and politics. Carlos Santana reported that the entity Metatron told him he'd be tuned into a “radio airwave frequency” to deliver a “new menu” of existence, helping students realize they are “multi-dimensional spirits.”9. Dreams and Altered StatesSongs often arrive during altered states—dreams, meditation, or automatic writing. Sting received “Every Breath You Take” in 15 minutes through automatic writing. Billy Joel dreamt many of his songs fully formed. Music heard during near-death experiences is described as “floating,” ethereal, and profoundly beautiful—often called the “music of the spheres.”10. Music and Quantum ConsciousnessThe book concludes by challenging the materialist worldview. It suggests that the universe operates through a quantum reality where consciousness is primary. Musicians report accessing a non-local field of awareness, consistent with quantum experiments showing that consciousness precedes matter. In this view, the brain doesn't create consciousness—consciousness creates the brain. Music becomes a delivery system for awakening, love, and planetary stewardship.
Hellraiser (1987). Hey Butter Leggings, have you ever played that Connections game? Sure you have. Everybody has, right? Well, if you have, it certainly helps with understanding the part where we talk about Connections for a long time. Don't worry, we also bring you our legally-obligated section about Jeopardy! Contains a parody of "Take Me Home, Country Roads" by Bill Danoff, Taffy Nivert, and 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.

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.

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

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.
