Right, we've had a week to process all of this...What do I mean? You know what I mean.  Yes everyone, we are here today to give the full rundown on The Beatles latest (and "last" ever) song to be released, "Now And Then".  In addition to a full review of the song, we also go through the full backstory leading up to the release "Now And Then" including clips of all of the "Lennon Tapes" that were gifted to the Beatles in 1994, as well as a quick analysis of the motivations behind its 2023 release. As always, this one took far longer to produce than I initially intended, but I am glad it worked out this way as my "hot-take" was wildly different than my views in this final episode. Please enjoy.

Right everyone it's a very collaborative one this week... The main focus of this episode is my swapcast with the Baa Ram Ewe podcast. They are a unique conspiracy and skepticism podcast, and they were kind enough to have me on as the "expert" on the Paul is Dead theory. In this chat me and the host go through a full timeline of events surrounding the conspiracy, the cultural impact of The Beatles and the nature of conspiracies in general. Also, as a cheeky bonus (and because it was too short to be a full episode) in this weeks HOUSEKEEPING segment (23:39) me and old friend of the show Tom Kwei discuss Paul's recent collaboration with The Rolling Stones! The song is called "Bite My Head Off" and we have A LOT to say about it... Please enjoy.

I'm not saying I started this podcast more than half a decade ago to specificially as an excuse talk about this concert...but it was certainly a leading factor! In this part one we will be going through all the backstory, personal and trivia behind the incomparably titanic tribute concert that was held in George Harrison's honour in 2002. The concert, rather aptly, was called The Concert For George and it is simply one of the best things ever.  Also, I did not plan for this one to be nearly this long, but here we are.  Please enjoy.

So Skylar is basically the young, hip person who goes to all the cool Beatle events (that I cannot attend), whom I shamelessly live through, and whose perspective I exploit for content.  Thankfully she was kind enough to walk me through two awesome events in recent Beatledom, those being The Music of Paul McCartney charity concert and The Fest for Beatle Fans, 2023. Please enjoy. Peace and love, Sam

Returning triumphantly to the podcast we have our very first guest, Luca Perasi, who is here to discuss his newer and even more all-encompassing McCartney song-by-song book, Paul McCarrtney: Music is Ideas - The Stories Behind the Songs (Vol. 1) 1970-1989.

Once again I get to sit down and discuss a bloody good book that I have read. Today, that book is Love and Let Die: Beatles, Bond and the British Psyche, by John Higgs. Come join us as we discuss the book, Bond, The Beatles, and a bunch of digressional topics that I can't even remember... This book is a perfect encapsulation of how British pop culture changed forever with the simultaneous release of "Love Me Do" and "Dr. No" on the same day in 1962. It covers both the wider social trends of the day like art, cultural identity, gender roles, sexuality and masculinity, whilst also telling the stories of the Beatles and Bond in their own right! I wholeheartedly recommend Love and Let Die: Beatles, Bond and the British Psyche and you can find it in all good book shops, both online and on the high street. Please enjoy.
