    How did four Liverpool teenagers become the most influential band on earth? What made their music and charisma irresistible to a generation? And, how did their ambition and timing spark a cultural revolution that still resonates today? In the first of two special episodes, Tom is joined by Conan O'Brien to explore the Beatles' meteoric rise: the personalities, the breakthroughs, and the explosive cultural impact that turned a local act into the defining band of the 20th century.

    In this unforgettable episode of The Box of Oddities, JG and Kat swing wildly from accidental lizard rescues to one of the most astonishing near-death survival stories in medical history. First, Kat confesses a very unexpected moral crisis involving her patio plants, gnat traps, and several surprisingly curious lizards. Then the pair shift into the gripping true account of radiologist Anna Bågenholm, the Norwegian skier who survived being trapped under the ice for 80 minutes without a heartbeat—and lived to tell the story. Through a cinematic retelling backed by medical reports and firsthand accounts, JG explores how Anna slipped into a freezing mountain stream, found a tiny air pocket, remained conscious for 40 minutes, and later entered deep hypothermic cardiac arrest with a body temperature of 56.7°F… only to be revived hours later by a medical team who refused to give up. Her strange sensations, out-of-body perspective, and quiet detachment blur the line between physiology and the extraordinary. Then it's Kat's turn with a delightfully bizarre deep-dive into America's government cheese caves—the multi-million-pound dairy stockpile the U.S. accidentally created, stored in massive underground limestone caverns, and quietly funneled into fast-food menus through a network of embedded “dairy scientists.” From the Reagan-era giveaways to the cheesy innovations of Taco Bell and Domino's, learn how policy, politics, and processed cheddar shaped American eating habits. Plus: hidden Beatles audio Easter eggs, mysterious backward messages, and the conspiracies that still won't die. If you love true survival stories, strange government programs, and the gloriously weird overlaps of science, history, and pop culture, this episode hits every craving. This Box Contains The Following Ingredients: Anna Bågenholm, near-death experience, hypothermia survival, trapped under ice, government cheese caves, SubTropolis, Missouri, dairy surplus history, Got Milk campaign, Taco Bell cheese innovations, Beatles backward messages, Paul is dead conspiracy, weird history podcast, Box of Oddities.

    On ne racontera jamais assez comment l'incroyable aventure des Beatles a failli cent fois prendre fin avant de trouver la voie du succès. Ainsi quand ces gamins rentrent quasiment les uns après les autres de leur première et longue série d'engagements à Hambourg. George Harrison qui n'était pas encore majeur a en effet été expulsé du territoire suite à une dénonciation aux autorités par le patron d'un bar avec qui ils s'étaient brouillés. Pete Best et Paul McCartney avaient été arrêtés peu de temps après, eux aussi, ils jouaient sans permis de travail, John Lennon et Stuart Sutcliffe, eux, étaient rentrés à Liverpool les derniers. C'est la débâcle. Paul voit les semaines passer sans nouvelles des autres. Personne ne semble appeler personne. C'est fini.Ne reste pas comme ça. Trouve-toi un job, dit le père McCartney. Alors Paul trouve un. Les jours passent, l'hiver est bien avancé quand John et George arrivent chez Massey and Coggins, trouvant Paul en train de balayer la cour.Tu viens ? On a trouvé un engagement au Cavern ? Le Cavern est alors un club de jazz ouvert quelques années plus tôt dans les sous-sols d'un entrepôt, près des quais. Les jeunes s'y rendent pour écouter des groupes jouer en soirée et sur le temps de midi, on y sert du café et de la soupe, l'endroit est glauque mais c'est mieux que rien. D'ailleurs la vie pour les jeunes à cette époque, c'est rien.J'peux pas, répond Paul, j'ai un job fixe maintenant. Je gagne 7 livres et 10 shillings par semaine, ils m'apprennent un boulot, j'peux pas rêver mieux.John et George traînent Paul jusqu'au Cavern. Tu devrais arrêter de faire tout ce que dit ton père, lui dit John, dis-lui d'aller se faire foutre. Il ne va pas te tuer, il est trop vieux pour ça.Paul sent la vibration du public, ce soir au Cavern Club. Et après avoir dormi dessus, il ne met plus un pied chez Massey and Coggins. Tant pis pour ce que son père va dire. Le Cavern Club a annoncé sur les affiches une représentation unique des Beatles avec, en sous-titre, « directement débarqué de Hambourg ». Mais vous parlez drôlement bien Anglais, leur disent des filles après leur prestation. Tu te rends compte Paul, elles nous prennent pour des Allemands, rit John Lennon. Oui, ce soir du 9 février 1961, les Beatles, que les trois quarts de la salle pensent être des Allemands, rencontrent leur premier vrai succès. Eux qui jusque-là, étaient le groupe de bal ou du bar, sont cette fois écoutés comme de vrais artistes, avec un public qui vient les voir après pour les féliciter. Et croyez-moi, ça fait du bien quand on sort de scène. Et oui, ils réalisent qu'ils ont changé en jouant six heures par soir durant trois mois sans interruption à Hambourg. Ils sont passés du bon groupe, comme les autres, à des gars qui font ce que personne ne fait. Hé les Beatles, bravo, hein, votre rock'n'roll, c'est autre chose que la bouillie de Cliff Richard, dit un Teddy Boy. Quant à leur nationalité allemande, il va falloir deux bonnes années pour que cette légende disparaisse, il faut dire que les Beatles vont encore retourner jouer plus de deux cents soirs à Hambourg. Et à chaque retour à Liverpool, le public sort du Cavern Club en se disant que non, décidément, personne ne met l'ambiance comme les Beatles.

    L'arrivée de l'incroyable série Anthology sur Disney+, 22 ans après la sortie en box DVD du plus monumental “doc” rock jamais réalisé, va à n'en pas douter fasciner plusieurs générations de spectateurs. Car bien au-delà du triomphe commercial jamais égalé, c'est surtout l'histoire des quatre musiciens qui vaut la peine d'être racontée. Les Beatles, c'est le Seigneur des Anneaux, le Star Wars, les Chevaliers de la Table Ronde du rock'n'roll, en clair la plus grande légende du XX° siècle, foisonnante, touchante et truffée de rebondissements aussi inattendus que spectaculaires. Vrai, qui à la fin des années 40 aurait pu prédire un tel destin à ces gamins courant dans les rues pour jouer dans les “bombies” comme on les appelle à Liverpool. Oh ils ignorent ce que ça veut dire mais c'est dans ces terrains vagues, plaies béantes dans des quartiers bombardés durant la guerre qui les a vus naître, que ces mômes aux genoux écorchés et gelés ont trouvé leur terrain de jeu. Ils n'imaginent pas une vie en dehors de Liverpool, cette cité portuaire noircie par la pollution des usines et des bateaux qui y accostent venant du monde entier. Ils parlent d'ailleurs un Anglais très singulier, le scouse, que personne ne comprend une fois qu'on s'en éloigne de dix miles. Pourtant, à l'automne 1960, nous les retrouvons dans un autre port, Hambourg, une ville qui a bien des points communs avec la leur. Particulièrement ses quartiers mal famés, hantés par des marins ivres le soir, errant jusqu'au bout de la nuit parmi les putes, comme ils disent, et voguant de cafés en lieux de débauche où on apprécie les groupes britanniques, les seuls à pouvoir jouer cette musique américaine des Elvis Presley et autres Bill Haley qu'ils apprécient tant. Ils sont alors six Beatles à jouer dans les bars de Reeperbahn et ses rues voisines. Oui, on parle toujours du 5ème Beatle mais ils sont six à en avoir fait partie officiellement. John Lennon a fondé les Quarrymen en 1956 alors qu'il était à la Quarry Bank High School, rejoint par Paul McCartney l'année suivante, puis George Harrison et enfin, Stuart Sutcliffe et Pete Best. Ils sont donc cinq, quatre guitaristes et un batteur, c'est d'ailleurs la maman du dernier arrivé, Pete Best, qui en leur trouvant pas mal d'engagements a enfin apporté une stabilité au groupe. Sans la maman de Pete, les Beatles auraient peut-être disparu des radars. Et tant qu'on parle des Beatles, c'est John et Stuart qui ont trouvé ce nom en janvier 1960.Alors imaginez l'arrivée à Hambourg fin 1960 pour ces jeunes hommes qui n'ont jamais franchi les frontières de la Grande-Bretagne. Assis sur leur matos dans le mini-minibus de leur manager qui n'est autre que le patron du Jacaranda, un café de Liverpool, ils débarquent en fin de soirée après avoir traversé la Hollande. Le patron de la boîte où ils doivent jouer, l'Indra, pas très chaleureux, les loge dans une pièce en béton sans fenêtre avec des matelas par terre, dans un cinéma borderline, avec juste les water sans eau chaude pour se débarbouiller. Ces deux lieux aujourd'hui encore miraculeusement intacts, c'est là où les Beatles vont apprendre leur métier en jouant plusieurs heures toutes les nuits, et où ils vont croiser Ringo Starr, le futur sixième Beatle qui joue avec un autre groupe de Liverpool. Mais c'est surtout là qu'ils vont comprendre le contact avec le public mieux que leurs semblables british et développer leur art comme personne, faisant d'eux le groupe de scène le plus phénoménal qu'on ait vu, suscitant des émotions dans le public féminin comme plus jamais on en verra. Non, vraiment, quand quatre ans plus tard, les Beatles débarquent à New York, aucun Américain n'a vu et entendu jouer LEUR musique comme le font les Beatles. C'est sauvage, le public exulte, leurs parents sont horrifiés.

    Matthew Whitehouse and The Face of Today

    What's Contemporary Now?

    In this episode, Matthew Whitehouse reflects on the winding path from a rainy Lancashire childhood and a brief burst of band-life glamour to leading The Face, a title forever suspended between myth and reinvention. He speaks with disarming clarity about reviving an icon without embalming it, insisting that the magazine's only true mandate is to capture the texture of now — not nostalgia, not futurism, but the pulse of the present. We explore the politics that slip in through lived experience rather than declarations, the power of small stories to illuminate larger truths, and the editor's craft as an exercise in restraint as much as vision. For Whitehouse, what's contemporary is whatever you're excited enough to run toward — a simple, infectious creed that shapes every page he oversees. “I'm not interested in the future. I'm interested in now — in documenting what it feels like to be alive in this exact moment.” - Matthew Whitehouse Episode Highlights: Growing up in Morecambe and dreaming of escape Born in a rainy seaside town that felt “far” from where he was meant to be, Matthew talks about music as his first love and his imagined ticket out, from The Beatles and Oasis to Springsteen. The ice cream man with a band and big plans While friends went to university, he stayed behind in Morecambe, working as an ice cream man and waiting for his kicked out bandmates to finish college so they could take music seriously. Dropping out for The Heartbreaks and accidental fame in Japan He leaves university just before the fee deadline, signs a publishing deal days later, tours with his band The Heartbreaks, tastes pop-star treatment in Japan, then ends up back home working in a meat packing factory. Band life, Burberry campaigns and the old fear of selling out Alongside the band, he appears in a Burberry campaign and editorials for i-D and Dazed, remembering how brand work once felt like “selling out” in a way that feels almost quaint now. From factory freezer to i-D and the grind of becoming a writer While cutting lamb shanks at 5 a.m., he pitches free pieces to small music sites, builds a portfolio, lands a short research job at i-D's video team, and eventually pivots into editorial because he knows he has to write. The fast leap from editorial assistant to editor of The Face In about three years he moves from editorial assistant at i-D to editor of The Face, initially thinking the relaunch is a bad idea before realizing the opportunity of a clean slate with a legendary masthead. Legacy, fragmentation and making a magazine about the now Everyone remembers a different “version” of The Face, so he sees himself as a guardian trying not to ruin something beloved while making it feel true to 2025, balancing global pop stars with niche local figures. Politics in the margins rather than as a banner He describes issues where politics is felt rather than announced, like an edition that quietly became about the cost of living crisis through its voices and stories rather than an explicit think piece. When timing lands and small stories carry big themes He relishes moments where covers hit the perfect moment, like Jenna Ortega on the day Wednesday drops, and stories like a Manchester record label piece that opens up into class, race and regional inequality. What makes a good editor and what is contemporary now He likens editing to jazz, knowing which notes not to play, trusting his team, staying in conversation with young people, and defines what is contemporary now as whatever you are genuinely excited enough to run toward.

    AN INTERVIEW WITH PRODUCER PHIL RAMONE (Ep. 235B)

    Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. In this episode, we feature the next entry in The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series. It's Chuck's chat with legendary producer Phil Ramone, Billy Joel's most relied-upon right-hand-man, the producer of every Billy Joel record during the height of his popularity, from 1977's The Stranger to 1986's The Bridge. Phil won his first production Grammy for his work on Paul Simon's Still Crazy After All These Years in 1975, eventually becoming chairman of The Recording Academy. He also helped produce, with Quincy Jones, 2001's televised A Tribute To Brian Wilson. His credits and accomplishments in the industry are almost literally endless, and what better place to learn about them than Chuck Granata's 2007 memoir (co-written with Phil) Making Records: The Scenes Behind The Music. Phil passed away a few years after this interview in 2013, which makes this posthumously released “Chuck Chat” yet another priceless buried treasure.   Here are just a few of the many things that Phil discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: The dysfunctional Wilson family dynamic, which Phil talks about with great candor; Digging into the history of harmony, and the experience of working with The Beach Boys on Chicago's “Wishing You Were Here”; Working with Burt Bacharach, and Phil's transition from engineer to producer; The differences between east coast and west coast records in the 1960s & 1970s; The Nylon Curtain's debt to both The Beatles & Pet Sounds-era Beach Boys; Why Elton John was nervous to perform at the Brian Wilson tribute; And stereo vs. mono with regard to hearing Pet Sounds.

    Mit szólsz, milyen az élet? – Szikora Róbert: hit, zene, önazonosság ep. 291   Ebben a rendhagyó és nagyon őszinte beszélgetésben Szikora Róbertet nem a megszokott módon hallod. Nincs csikidám-csinnadratta, nincs póz, csak egy ember, aki több mint ötven éve áll a színpadon, és mindmáig ugyanazzal a szenvedéllyel beszél a zenéről, a hitről és az életről, mint kamaszkorában, amikor először meghallotta a Beatlest a Szabad Európán keresztül.   Robi mesél arról, hogyan tanulta meg a zenét a Beatles „iskolájából", milyen volt a szocialista Magyarországon gombafejjel villamoson hazamenni, majd évekkel később ugyanilyen bátran felvállalni a saját stílusát; hogyan élte meg a Hungáriából való távozást és miért tekinti a „Létezem" című dalt egyfajta üzenetnek és új kezdetnek.   A beszélgetés egyik legizgalmasabb része, amikor tisztázza a „csikidám" eredetét: hogyan született meg ez a játékos, energikus, Magyarországon teljesen újszerű stílus, és miért nem akarta, hogy bárki egy címkével zárja be az R-GO világát.   Szó esik identitásról, önazonosságról, a popzenész felelősségéről és a hit szerepéről az életben. Robi őszintén mesél arról is, hogyan lehet több évtizednyi reflektorfény után is megőrizni az alázatot, és miért fontos, hogy „vállald önmagad, de ne pózolj"  ahogy a történeteiből kiderül.   Aki szereti a magyar könnyűzene történetét, a 80-as évek világát vagy egyszerűen kíváncsi egy ikon emberi oldalára, annak ez a beszélgetés hatalmas élmény lesz.   Témák a beszélgetésben   • Beatles-hatás és a zenei ébredés • Hungária-korszak kulisszatitkai • Miért szakadt el és hogyan született meg az R-GO • A „Létezem" mint üzenet és új életút • A csikidám valódi története • A hit szerepe a művészetben • Az önazonosság ára a szocializmusban és ma • Sztorik, amelyekre még a rajongók sem számítanak   Ha tetszett a beszélgetés:

    The Wolf & Action Jackson will admit they aren't the world's biggest Beatles fans. Though we appreciate their influence to help create the music we love through generations, we generally don't gravitate towards their albums. However, in researching Rubber Soul as it turns 60 on December 3, we gained new appreciation and respect for the Lads from Liverpool. They had grown up quite a bit in the last few years and found themselves writing more mature lyrics while experimenting with different sounds. The Beatles had met and befriended Bob Dylan and in their second trip to the US had met Elvis and formed mutual admiration societies with The Byrds, Motown and Stax. They experimented with LSD and the boys used to call Rubber Soul the pot album as they partook during the recording. So as they wove all those influencers into their own music, they also started to write more personal songs. Paul exchanged sweet nothings for standoffish goodbyes in songs like You Won't See Me and I'm Looking Through You. A contemplative John Lennon reminisces about growing up (In My Life) and the eternal search for that special someone (Girl). Young George Harrison was ready to step up to the plate with his own mature offerings like Think For Yourself and If I Needed Someone. The album was well received by peers and critics and is considered the point where the album became more than just a larger collection of songs but one statement from a moment in time. Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown) was an international hit about an affair John had. Michelle seems like a sweet ode to a French girl when it was the boys making fun of Paul for trying to speak French at parties to meet girls. Even the big hit Drive My Car is very tongue in cheek about the silliness and pitfalls of fame. Though the oldest of them were 25, The Beatles proved they were more than just cute mop tops with guitars. They were artists pushing the envelope in the studio of what rock music could be. Rubber Soul was that next step in the evolution of the band and rock.

    Synopsis  Rock N Roll Archaeology excavates the divergent paths of Elton John and John Lennon in the first half of the 1970s, a period where one man sprinted toward the brightest spotlight on Earth while the other desperately sought an escape. From Elton's star-making coronation at the Troubadour to Lennon's chaotic "Lost Weekend" in Los Angeles, their journeys collide in a New York studio with a high-stakes wager over the song "Whatever Gets You Thru the Night."  This is a story of two friends, two paths, and the unforeseen consequences of getting exactly what you wish for, set against the backdrop of the post-Beatles power vacuum and the dizzying heights of 70s superstardom.

    It only took 29 years, but we Beatles fans finally have what we've all been clamoring for: instrumental “Fool On The Hill.” That's right, Anthology 4 has arrived! Are you excited? We fans love sequels! Maybe it's an appetizer to George Harrison's “Early Takes Volume 2”, which is tentatively scheduled to be released sometime after we're all dead. Fortunately, for those of us who remember the excitement for the original Anthology CD's, the good folks at Apple have finally cleaned up the tracks from volumes 1-3. This week, Tony & T.J. instant-react to those reissues (and/or maybe remixes), in addition to previewing their full-on deep dish of Anthology 4. Along the way, the boys ask:

Joining me for this first episode back, is my dear friend Paul Perigo!   In a very far-reaching conversation, we talk about a few notable censored Beatle records, the tangibility of music, preparing Paul McCartney TV specials for Australian broadcast, forgotten British psych-pop, taping The Beatles cartoons, gaps in documentation of parts of Beatle history, the bond between John & George, George Martin's original score for Yellow Submarine, the 1968 film "Here We Go Round The Mullbery Bush", the spookiness of Long, Long, Long, and Paul's full personal ranking of The Beatles albums. All that and more, so you won't want to miss it!

    Following the Beatles' final concert tour, George Harrison travelled to India in 1967 to learn sitar under the renowned musician Ravi Shankar. Fleeing Beatlemania he travelled in disguise to Mumbai and then to Srinagar in Kashmir. Listening to BBC archive and using excerpts from a Martin Scorsese documentary, we hear one of the world's most famous guitarists challenge himself to learn a new instrument. The moment influenced George's spirituality and his burgeoning solo musical career, as well as the Beatles'. It also propelled Ravi Shankar further into the limelight. The musicians remained lifelong friends. Ravi says they last saw each other on 28 November 2001, the day before George died. Produced and presented by Surya Elango.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive. Witness History is for those fascinated by the past.

We read Billy Strings reviews and talk shit about AI! PLUS DOPEY NATION GRATITUDE before introducing guest Charlotte McKinney.Charlotte joins at around 45 days sober. She talks about early sobriety, feeling scared to fully commit, and using comedy as her “secret life.” She opens up about her old weed habit, quitting cold turkey, partying with boyfriends, and chasing drugs through different phases of her life. She shares some of her craziest stories — including taking LSD and going to family dinners and spending holidays totally high. She and Dave talk recovery, meetings, codependency, boundaries, and finding sober community. They end with Dave's rapid-fire game (mushrooms vs acid, Beatles vs Stones, heroin vs meth, etc.).Next, Steve Poltz drops in with a story about the late Todd Snider. He describes getting hotboxed backstage with Todd and Evan Dando at the Ryman, being blasted on secondhand smoke, and going onstage dazed. He recalls Todd's health decline, his death, and their long friendship.All that and more on this brand spanking new - post Billy Strings episode of that good old Dopey Show!  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    The second part of Tony's chat with Beatles biographer Ian Leslie, exploring how John Lennon and Paul McCartney's unique and complex relationship shaped The Beatles. When Tony first heard ‘Love Me Do' he was blown away by the new sound he was hearing, and he's been a lifelong fan of The Beatles ever since. Today Tony and Ian are discussing the band's internal dynamics, the emotional histories that shaped John and Paul, and how drugs influenced their relationship and songwriting, pushing it to new creative places. In ‘Tomorrow Never Knows', they fused John's conceptual vision with Paul's avant-garde techniques to produce something radically new: as Ian says, “John didn't want to write a song about a trip; he wanted to create something which is a trip.”Hosted by Sir Tony Robinson | Instagram @sirtonyrobinsonProducer: Melissa FitzGerald | X @melissafitzgWithIan Leslie | www.ian-leslie.comIan Leslie is the author of acclaimed and bestselling books on human psychology and creativity which have been translated into over a dozen languages.

    Breathe Pictures Photography Podcast: Documentaries and Interviews

    This week's edition is guest-focused. Paul Berriff OBE, has lived a life few could imagine. A filmmaker and photographer whose work spans more than 180 prime-time documentaries, he has survived a helicopter crash, escaped a sinking ship in a North Sea storm, crawled from the wreckage of a downed aircraft, and lived through the collapse of both towers on September 11 while filming inside the disaster zone. His tape from that day remains one of the most important visual records of the south tower falling. Before film came photography. In the 1960s, Paul made remarkably natural portraits of The Beatles and the Rolling Stones, long before fame turned them into myth. Later, with what he called a "clockwork camera," he moved into observational documentary and eventually built his own production company. Alongside all this, he trained as a firefighter and helped carry out more than 850 RNLI sea rescues. The conversation moved differently from how I imagined it might. Two major stories emerged. One is his account of filming inside the World Trade Center as the towers came down, surviving when the buildings collapsed around him. The other is the story of a rescue by helicopter in brutal conditions, a moment when a second narrow escape became part of his history. I'll also share a little more about the craft of photogravure that we'll be exploring on the new Scottish retreat in June. There's a reminder of this month's assignment, the last one of the year, before we shift our focus to THE ONE in December. Links to all guests and features will be on the show page, my sincere thanks to our Extra Milers, without whom we wouldn't be walking each week and Arthelper.ai, giving photographers smart tools to plan, promote, and manage your creative projects more easily.
