Two years ago we released a series of podcasts for TM Ganim's, Livelong - Galaxy Hopper, a 6-part series following the adventures of Livelong, “the good cloud,” who drifts from galaxy to galaxy to respond to those in need.
With narration from Thomas Mitchell and an amazing musical score and soundtrack from Dave Halverson, this complete edition of all six stories is a masterpiece of storytelling for listeners of all ages, and it's a lot of fun too.
We always anticipated releasing the full series and it's finally here! Remember to make use of the chapter markers to navigate through all six episodes.
We hope you enjoy it!
Thank you!

In this episode of the podcast, Thomas Mitchell and Paxton Stanley deliver one of L. Frank Baum's often overlooked classics, The Wonderful Pump, a story that dramatically illustrates how greed taints best possible outcomes and the crucial need to remain mindful when opportunity presents itself. We also learn how pride built around one's perception of how the world views them is often a terrible pitfall.

This will be our last encore presentation of one of our most beloved podcasts (Rikki-Tikki-Tavi) as we ramp up towards new content in 2023 which marks our 5th season!
As you may have noticed, we have stripped away our intro/outro content to help shorten the time of each of our podcasts. We've also remastered each of the encore releases in December for enhanced audio quality.
It's been a pleasure providing content to all of our loyal listeners these past 3+ years and we are stoked for another big year in 2023!

We return almost three years later, to Oscar Wilde's, The Selfish Giant, adapted for the podcast by Thomas Mitchell with music by Pax Stanley.
This is a gorgeous story about the importance of overcoming selfishness, learning how to give and serve others, and the kind of magic that happens when you learn to share not only of your things, but of yourself:)

2022 was a big year of transition for most of our team and for a while we felt it was maybe time to move past the Planet Storytime Podcast. But our subscriber base has continued to grow this year and we've decided to begin providing new content in 2023!
For now, we will be re-publishing our favorite episodes from the first three seasons of the show since many have not listened to those and because each story is timeless and worth checking out! For those of you who have stayed with us from 2019 on, we thank you for your loyalty and for not giving up on us! We promise to have exciting new content for you soon:)
Lastly, we are trimming out some of the intro section from each podcast so that folks can get directly to the actual story more quickly!

Yes, it's been a long time since we've published any episodes. Covid finally caught up with members of our production team and did so at a time when we've been pondering the future of our podcast. For now, our production schedule remains in a slow-down mode given circumstances somewhat out of control. Regardless of our reduced production schedule, your support has not wavered even slightly - for that we, we thank you!
More material is coming in the near future, including a full stellar episode for all of the Livelong episodes! But for now, we wanted to share the latest single from our friends, Rubber Plane! "2 2 1" marks the first new single from Rubber Plane since their debut album premiered back in 2011. This is a wonderful song and anthem about love and perserverence and tackling the toxicity of hate in our world. We hope you enjoy it!

How did the camel get its hump anyway? And how important is it to pull your own weight and to work hard in life? In this Rudyard Kipling story, Thomas Mitchell seeks to answer these questions with yet another amazing example of his wonderful narration. Paxton Stanley brings another gorgeous music soundtrack to this classic tale.
We hope you enjoy this remastered classic from our first season!

Welcome back to the podcast! We're happy to present our 3rd annual re-broadcast of the A Crow & Beetle Thanksgiving!
In this episode of the podcast, TM Ganim brings us another wonderful story about the need to have perspective in life when considering the numerous things all of us have to be thankful for, from the eyes of our old friends, Crow and Beetle:) This is a great story packed full of great action, themes of comraderie and gratitude, and the need to be mindful of the always present, bigger picture.

October 28, 2019:
Who loves a good, scary Halloween story?
On Planet Storytime, the weather is starting to cool off, the leaves are changing colors, and holiday season is approaching! Halloween is one of our favorite holidays, and we are pleased to present a great Halloween tale! TM Ganim (author of "Crow and Beetle") provides us yet another instant classic with "The Tale of The Pumpkin House", a story that gives us ghosts, ghouls, witches and goblins, houses that have far more to them than meets the eye, and 8 amazing kitties! If you want to know more, you'll just have to listen to this week's show:)
Thomas Mitchell and Paxton Stanley deliver another amazing production to accompany this thrilling, creepy tale. We intend to continue developing more and more original content to accompany our development of the all-time classics from Kipling, the Grimm Bros. and many more.

This week our intergalactic friends find themselves traveling to Planet Earth, where they meet Malcolm MacMinus. Helpful as always, Livelong and his faithful companion, Gonquik offer their friendship and guidance to young Malcolm, in an attempt to restore order to this stop in the universe before continuing their journey.
We appreciate everyone's patience after our fairly long break. After two years of production, we needed a couple of months to regroup and refresh but we are back with much more coming your way in the weeks ahead.

In this episode of the podcast, we're featuring the amazing music of Dave Halverson, composer for all of the Livelong music. Dave came onboard the podcast a few months ago and his work no Livelong is some of the best music you can hear anywhere, let alone a storytime podcast. We are so lucky to have Dave on our team and hope you enjoy this awesome 3-track medley Dave put together.
With summer coming to a close we will be returning to a more robust publication schedule in September. We truly hope everyone is staying safe and enjoying the company of friends and family and look forward to jumping into YEAR 3 of the show with all of you onboard!
Yes - in less than 2 weeks, we will cross Planet Storytime's 2nd anniversary as a podcast and we think we - kind of - know what we are doing as we look into the third year of the show. When we started out, we knew very little about what we were doing, but fairly quickly, we built an amazing, consistently loyal fanbase that seemed to enjoy our work, that has stuck with us from the beginning as many others have shown up along the way - we thank ALL of you for your support!
We have much more to share in the weeks ahead, including more Livelong, more of Mitchell's work, Beatru, Crow & Beetle, and more music from Dave Halverson and Pax Stanley!
Please send your comments, questions, love, hard dislike to planet.storytime@gmail.com and stay tuned to our website (https://planet-storytime-podcast.podsite.io/) as we get ready to start our blog and increase interactivity with our fan base.

We love the new Livelong stories and we truly love how TM Ganim's brain works and how well it ties to Dave Halverson's brain - this has been an awesome partnership and the latest episode may be the best one so far.

We are very happy to present a long overdue STELLAR podcast, our first Stellar podcast in almost a year! Our Stellar episodes have been some of our most popular and they’re awesome for long road trips, long walks with headphones, lazy days, rainy days, sick days and any other time our listeners need more than just one episode.
For this edition, we have bundled up our TOP 10 most popular episodes to date (in reverse order):
Crow and Beetle (PSP4)
Stablefree, Equipoise and the Mud Cave Adventure (PSP21)
The Victor Surf Theme (PSP28)
The Tale of Mr. Jeremy Fisher (PSP22)
The Misdirection - A Crow and Beetle Story (PSP26)
The Selfish Giant (PSP18)
The Queen Bee (PSP2)
The Emperor’s New Clothes (PSP24)
Rikki-Tikki-Tavi (PSP32)
The Tale of Peter Rabbit (PSP1)
(TOTAL RUN TIME: 130 MINUTES!!)
And while this feature isn’t always easy to find on some podcast apps, each of these stories have been broken into separate chapters, allowing you to hone in on the particular episode you want to hear which may be helpful for such a long podcast:)
We have truly enjoyed going back to listen to some of these stories while pondering how far we have come as podcasters with content we believe is some of the best available for kids today. With so much children’s content coming in the form of YouTube/Netflix/Disney videos, we remain firm believers that audio-only content helps spark a child’s creative imagination, empowering them to create the visuals in their minds that accompany our stories.
Big thanks to our listeners worldwide - you help push us to new levels of creativity, inspiring our original content and our newer serial/episodic stories with Beatru and Livelong. And thank you for your endless support to this point! We have so much in store for the remainder of the year so please stay subscribed and tuned in for more Livelong, Beatru and, hopefully, new Crow and Beetle stories!

It's been far too long since our team has provided the PSP Universe with a hard update on the state of the show, our future and plans for 2024. For those of you who have been with us since the beginning back in the late summer of 2019, we salute and thank you! Without your support, we wouldn't have a show! For those of you just now achieving orbit around our planet, welcome! We have much to discuss!
As many will attest, our production schedule since 2021 has been, at best, erratic. There are many reasons for that including Covid-19, Thomas and Paxton's careers and family priorities, lack of funding (we're talking to you, generous listener! SUBSCRIBE!), and the challenges associated with generating rich, new, content.
Our original goal for PSP was to build on the energy and vibe of Mr. Rogers, Sesame Street and The Electric Co. from the 1970s, meaning, yes, we tell stories, but occasionally we make weird music or share gorgeous poems. Without demands from sponsors, we've been able to make this show whatever we wanted it to be. Sometimes we hit the mark and other times, not so much, but that's okay because our focus has always been our listernship and a sincere hope that people understand we've always done this show with love in our heart with content that stirs up all kinds of pictures in one's head.
We will conitnue to run "re-runs" given that as our younger listeners grow and begin to focus on different kinds of content, new listeners show up every day. Our stories are timeless - they are not dependent on current trends and. There will always be someone's first time hearing Crow & Beetle. But new content is what keeps the show sharp and thriving and more new content is coming!
For now, Paxton asked that we re-publish the full first act of The Beatru Chronicles as he's nearly completed the second act which should be published later this spring!
Originally apearing for the first time on 12/6/2020 as PSP34, The Beatru Chronicles tells of the adventures of Beatru, a young girl who wakes up from a dream to find that she's in a strange land with strange creatures and there begins the long journey for our heroine as she navigates this strange world in search of answers, a way back home, and perhaps a clear explanation for the disappearance of her parents.
We're excited for the upcoming release of Act II in the months ahead! For now, enjoy Act I!
This episode features chapter markers in the podcast itself:
Chapter 1 - The Clearing Chapter 2 - The River and the Turtle Chapter 3 - Stampede Chapter 4 - Colonel Rhys Chapter 5 - Friends in High Places Chapter 6 - Clarity and Purpose

On the heels of our wildly popular, Beatru Chronicles by JS Blue, we are excited to launch another serial/episodic podcast series with TM Ganim’s, Livelong Galaxy Hopper! Follow the adventures of Livelong, “the good cloud,” who drifts from galaxy to galaxy to respond to those in need. Our pilot episode sets the stage for Livelong’s intergalactic saga and demonstrates how using our hearts allows each one of us to become galaxy hoppers, too!
Planet Storytime creators, Paxton Stanley and Thomas Mitchell and the rest of the PSP team are proud and honored to introduce a new member of our team-- musician, producer and engineer extraordinaire, Dave Halverson! The addition of Dave to Planet Storytime opens the door for more collaboration and answers our fans’ requests for more frequent episodes!
Dave is amazing artist with nearly 30 years of experience making incredible music and steadily releasing his own gorgeous material and we encourage each and every one of you to check out his disography and history on his website:
Anyone in your family celebrating a birthday soon? Shoot us an email at planet.storytime@gmail.com and have Thomas Mitchell sing you happy birthday during that week’s episode!

We're busy in production for several new stories for upcoming podcasts, including a brand new story from Mitchell Von Gemmigen, who provided us the wonderful, Wilhelmina's Wonderous Wardrobe for PSP46! Mitchell's new story will be out in the next week for PSP48.
But for this episode of the podcast, as we try to do at least a couple of times each season, we are proud to present the awesome theme song from our upcoming, much-anticipated new serial podcast series, The Livelong Journeys! We've had so much fun working on The Beatru Chronicles - Act I (all 6 chapters of which are available in PSP44!) and want to continue down that path with this amazing new epic from the mind of TM Ganim! The first Livelong podcast will be out in a few weeks, so to give you some sense of the atmosphere and overall vibe, we thought the theme song would be a nice teaser for what's to come!
The "Livelong Theme Song" was written by TMG & the MBGG and produced by Paxton Stanley, with vocals by Thomas Mitchell, and performances by both Thomas and Pax. This is a wonderful, groovy, upbeat kids pop song that we think everyone will really enjoy, and maybe by listening to the lyrics, you'll get some idea of the setting for our new story, and a bit more about our main character:)
Enjoy the new song and we will be back inside a week with the next Mitchell Von Gemmigen story (and look for Livelong towards the end of May!) - thanks!

Welcome back to Planet Storytime and another classic TM Ganim original!
This marks the first time this year that we've returned to our classic format with our classic intro and a story for all ages that harkens back to our first year of production, which we know many of our listeners will appreciate!
Heavely is a story about the challenges of sticking out from the crowd given circumstances beyond one's control, and how important it is to stand firm in our love and belief in ourselves and to focus on those things we really like about ourselves. This story is another original from our amazing friend, TM Ganim and a throwback to the kind of content Planet Storytime is known for! That's not to say that Beatru won't be back because she will be in the near future, along with a brand new serial story from the aforementioned, TM Ganim! We cannot wait to hear what he has in store for all of us! But we know many you truly love our more traditional children's stories, and this new original is an instant classic. We truly hope you love it as much we do!
As always, a big shout of thanks for our continuous support from you, the listeners!

Four months ago, Thomas and Paxton took a chance on a new story model for the podcast, releasing the first of six chapters for their new serial story, The Beatru Chronicles - Act I. As much as our production team has used the PSP podcast format as a creative sandbox for compelling children's content, and done so with a thriving and growing fanbase worldwide, we knew that Beatru's story, written to appeal to the older kids in our audience, might completely miss the mark with the bulk of our fanbase, especially those who have kept our very first episode, The Tale of Peter Rabbit - PSP 1, our all-time most popular episode.
But our team recognized that there are several children's podcasts currently available that appeal to younger children, with often less ambitious and mature content than Beatru, and we felt we needed to use our imaginations to create something that stretched our own comfort levels a bit, as we surely have with our fanbase, to create something wholly compelling, unique and sustainable beyond a single episode/podcast that leaned on Thomas and Paxton's strengths as writers and composers of original material. And as we have many times with TM Ganim, we leaned on JS Blue to provide us an original story that was unique to Planet Storytime, just like Crow & Beetle has been over the past year and a half. Once we began working on The Beatru Chronicles with JSB, we knew we were creating something very special.
And while Beatru's amazing stories may continue to be a bit of strange narrative for some of our fans, support has grown significantly since we published the first chapter on December 6th, 2020. To THOSE countless fans that have continued to support Beatru, this podcast is for YOU!
You no longer have to hop between PSP34, PSP35, PSP37, PSP38, PSP40 and PSP43 to listen to Act I as all are now combined into this podcast, with chapter markers:
Chapter 1 - The Clearing Chapter 2 - The River and the Turtle Chapter 3 - Stampede Chapter 4 - Colonel Rhys Chapter 5 - Friends in High Places Chapter 6 - Clarity and Purpose
And if you haven't given Beatru's story a chance to this point, we encourage you to do so now! Clocking in at exactly 90 minutes, Act I works well for long road trips, rainy days and even family listening night, as many of you have told us you like to do a few times each month:)
A big shout of thanks to Jane Owen who helped provide just enough spark to our production team to help keep us believing in our story and our beloved character!
And more thanks to JS Blue for his wonderful story (w/ an assist to TM Ganim for his creative consulting on this project)
Please enjoy the full length version of The Beatru Chronicles - Act I and stay tuned for Act II which is already in production for release later this year, perhaps by early summer! In the meantime, and for those fans who long for an awesome TM Ganim story, our very next episode will be the next TM Ganim story he's written and we can't wait to hear it, produce and release it as soon as possible!

In this episode of the podcast, we present the conclusion to ACT I of The Beatru Chronicles with "Chapter 6 - Clarity and Purpose"!!
Three months after we presented chapter 1, we've gone all the way thru to the end of ACT I of Beatru's amazing story (with two more ACTs to come out later this year!) and couldn't be more excited to share it with you!
We weren't sure how Beatru and her story would be received when we first presented her stories back in December, but each chapter has brought more and more fans to her podcasts. We are confident this may end up being your favorite so far! Thomas and Paxton deliver one of their best-ever episodes to date!
Ever since "Chapter 1 - The Clearing", Beatru has sought answers to a growing list of big, questions, explaining how she passed thru the Enigmatic Egress into the strange world she awoke to in the wood. But each answer has raised more and more questions! Chapter 6 will answer some of the biggest she has about many things, but will leave us all seeking ACT II!
To all of our Beatru fans around the world - THANK YOU for your love and support! And at the request of many of you, we will be releasing all six chapters as a single, Stellar podcast in the weeks ahead with all of ACT I in a single podcast! TM Ganim has been patiently awaiting our production of his latest original, but soon after that, we'll be releasing The Beatru Chronicles - ACT I, complete wth chapter breaks!

Welcome back to Planet Storytime!
In this episode of the podcast, Thomas and Paxton interview the legendary, Fred Mollin! Fred's career began back in 1972 and has spanned the bulk of his lifetime...
From his Wikipedia page:
"Fred Mollin is an American and Canadian record producer, musician, film and TV composer, music director, music supervisor, and songwriter. He has produced records for Jimmy Webb, Johnny Mathis, Billy Ray Cyrus, Lamont Dozier and America, and has composed music for Beverly Hills, 90210, Friday the 13th (movies and television), Forever Knight, Hard Copy, and many more. Mollin rose to prominence early in his career by co-producing (with Matthew McCauley) Dan Hill's international hit record, "Sometimes When We Touch", in 1977.
As an artist, he has written and produced music for a series of children's albums, including Disney: Lullaby Album: Instrumental Favorites For Baby, peaking at #6 on January 26, 2001, on Billboard's Kid Album music chart; and Disney's Princess Lullaby Album, which peaked at No. 23 on October 25, 2002 (Billboard). He created the musical group Fred Mollin and the Blue Sea Band, composing and producing albums such as Finding Nemo-Ocean Favorites, Lightning McQueen's Fast Tracks, and others, primarily released on Disney/Pixar albums."
We encourage you to visit Fred's own webpage at:

Fred just released a brand-new children's, interactive music album, called, "It's Great To Be a Kid", available as a digital music download, and/or CD available here:

In the interview, Fred talks about his motivation and inspiration for his amazing new album, as well as his career and his love of simply PLAYING music! It's a great discussion that we think many of our listeners will truly enjoy, especially all future musicians!
We look forward to having Fred back in the very near future where he will peform some of his favorite children's songs!
Fred - THANK YOU for your time today and for sharing some of your history and inspiration with us!

In this episode, we revisit Tom Woof & Max The Owl, an amazing story written by the amazingly talented, Jane Owen! We were so happy to have Jane on our podcast for an interview a few episodes ago, where performed an awesome reading of her story, but given the limitations of using Zoom for recording, we all agreed the story deserved the full PSP production treatment, and Thomas and Paxton have done their best to create a wonderful story experience for Jane's awesome story.
The story of Tom and Max is a story about friendship, gaining perspective, and learning how to tell stories that resonate with people. It's a great lesson in how we can best interact with our family and friends in everyday life too. This is Jane's first children's story and it's an instant classic!

In this episode of the podcast, our first Artist Series show, we proudly present our interview with the amazing Jane Owen - founder of Jane Owen Public Relations - and first time children's author of Tom Woof and Max the Owl, an amazing children's story! We had the pleasure of interviewing Jane to learn more about her inspiration for writing the story and how the challenges we all faced as a society in 2020 led her to getting the story published.
During our interview, Jane shared the impact her great grandfather, legendary book editor, Max Perkins played on her career in public relations as well as his connection to Jane's character, Max the Owl. Max Perkins discovered Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings, and Thomas Wolfe, among others, and this passion for writing has been passed down thru the generations to Jane.
There's so much more we could say about Jane and her career, but we encourage you all to listen to her reading of Tom Woof and Max the Owl and the interview that follows. And for those of you who would like to learn more about where to purchase a hard copy of the book, or to see some of the amazing artwork from the book, please visit:

We're happy to see Beatru's podcast episodes picking up more and more support as we get deeper into the story - thank you! We will continue to shake up our show and continue to occasionally provide stories that are better suited for younger children.

In the meantime - thanks for sticking with us this past year. As challening as things have been on so many different fronts, it's not hard to see that if we work to be kind, thoughtful, gracious, humble, loving, mindful, tolerant people, we can truly make the world a safer, happier place for every-single-one!

Season's Greetings from Planet Storytime! It's been snowing here for weeks and it's extremely chilly! But it hasn't been enough to keep us from knocking out stories as quickly as we can!
While our team has been focused on the production of The Beatru Chronicles, we wanted to share our first original Christmas story, The Story of Archie Ball, complements of guest author, Eudora Russell.
This is a wonderful Christmas story featuring the lost and out of place, Archie Ball, who finds himself amidst a long quest in search of purpose and meaning, narrated by Thomas Mitchell and featuring classic Christmas music produced by Paxton Stanley. We sincerely hope you enjoy the story!
As we get ready to turn the page on 2020, we remaing 100% focused on continuing to provide more and more stories about Beatru and her adventures but will continue to provide stories for our younger listeners from time to time. This Christmas story should appeal to our fans of all ages!
Wish you all - around the world - a very Merry Christmas and happy holiday season! Thank you for your strong support in a very difficult year - we will continue to provide content and, as promised, with much greater frequency than we had in 2020!
