A deep dive into the music and complex psychology of John Lennon, featuring interviews with such noted authors and podcasters as David Bedford, Dan Richter, Jude Kessler, Kit O'Toole and Ken McNab, as well as ex-Quarrymen bandmates Rod Davis and Colin Hanton
John Lennon and Paul McCartney are inextricably linked, and what more is there to say at this point? Well, I give it a shot in a podcast of 3 sections, looking at common Lennon/McCartney tropes and assumptions, giving a guitar & vocal lesson on the song 'Two Of Us' and then walking you through the highly entertaining 2000 TV film 'Two Of Us', directed by Michael Lindsay-Hogg and starring Aiden Quinn and Jared Harris. There are a record number of clips included here and it's hopefully a pretty epic ride to end the year of 2022. Here's to more Glass Onion in 2023 so keep listening! Enjoy!

The completion of Luke and Antony's discussion of John Lennon, originally recorded for ‘Luke's English Podcast' last year. We complete our description of John using adjectives of personality, and then discuss his lyrics, including his lyrical progression, and offer numerous examples courtesy of Antony's voice and guitar and Luke's deep knowledge of Beatles songs. This and the previous episode are especially recommended for students of English and non-native speakers but we hope these edits make them accessible to all. Enjoy!

Luke Thompson, a fellow English teacher and podcaster, hosted Antony on his podcast back in June 2021, and this is the Glass Onion version of that talk, split into two parts. This part of the discussion centres on trying to describe John Lennon using adjectives of personality, so this episode is especially recommended for students of English and non-native speakers. There are some warm-up questions as well and we go pretty deep into the multi-faceted enigma that was John Lennon Enjoy!

Turning our attention from 1968 itself to the Lennon/Beatles events of the year, what emerges is an epic Glass Onion journey into a year that weighed heavily on John Lennon's psyche and the world-famous group that he'd originally formed. The main events include the trip to India, the Apple launch, the recording of the White Album and John and Paul's very tangled and drama-laced romantic lives. And the world meets the phenomenon known as Johnandyoko! Enjoy!

1968 was among the most turbulent years in living memory. As a forerunner to our look at the Beatles/John Lennon events, Matt Williamson joins the show to dissect the year itself in terms of major events, films and (non-Beatles) singles and albums. This is prefaced by host Antony doing a brief comparison of The Beatles and Monty Python's Flying Circus 'groups' and some of the curious similarities and connections in their stories. Enjoy!

Chris Purcell and I complete our 2-part look at John Lennon's live career and also some of the films and video clips surrounding his performances This part takes us from 1966 to 1975 as we look at such events as the Our World broadcast, Hey Jude & Revolution on the David Frost show, the rooftop gig and John's two most high-profile and substantial solo gigs, namely Toronto in 1969 and Madison Square Garden in 1972. There are other performances mentioned, along with some inevitable post-1980 speculation and audio clips in all the right places... Enjoy!

John Lennon was a unique live performer, both with The Beatles and in his solo career, though following his split with the Fabs he showed a reluctance to play full concerts and so we should cherish what little we have in that regard. This 2-parter on John's live career sees documentarian Chris Purcell make a welcome return to the show. In this part, we look at the Beatles' live work up to Candlestick Park in 1966 and Chris casts his expert eye on the films made of some of their concerts Enjoy!

Before diving into the main topic, we talk a little about Jon's previous (and current) incarnation as guitarist with the Britpop band 'Sleeper', and what the relationship was between the 60s and the 90s. We then go headlong into Lennon & Dylan and discuss some of the broad topics and fine details of their relationship contained in Jon's book. Get your scuba gear on folks, we go deep.... Enjoy!

1969 was, even by the standards of the tumultuous decade of the 60s, a remarkably eventful year both for John Lennon and the world at large. Scott Phipps makes a welcome return to the podcast for a 2-parter about John in this year. I should come clean and say that there is very little John Lennon/Beatles in this part, so call it a build-up to the main event. There's plenty of gold here though as we look at the events, births & deaths, films and non-Lennon music of this remarkable 12 months Enjoy!

James Corbett joins the show to discuss the 2006 documentary about John's political activism and his fight against the Nixon administration to stay in the U.S. We also take some time to look at the political landscape of the time and the difference between then and now in terms of how much the public is shown about what is really happening in the world.

Your host Antony recently appeared on the 'Classic Film Jerks' podcast to take a comedic but still analytical look at the Beatles’ first film ‘A Hard Day’s Night’. Is it a classic? You can probably guess what I thought but what did Michael and Andrew from CFJ conclude after their first watch? The intro to the show contains more information on the upcoming documentary ‘Finding Claudio’ that was mentioned on a recent show and which concerns the strange young man who came to England to ‘look in John’s eyes’ and who John engages with outside his Tittenhurst Park home in the famous clip from 1971. That clip and a link to the documentary website are in the show notes. Enjoy!

I'm joined by broadcaster, podcaster and real-life Liverpudlian Mick Ord for the first of a 2-part discussion of John Lennon and the year 1972. This part actually focuses on John pre-1972, the perception of him in the press and in Liverpool, and some of the events, music and films of the year. The second part will focus solely on John's activities in 1972 itself. The file is available as a downloadable mp3 Enjoy!
