Rumble Chats with Comedian Paul Mercurio Part 2 (That time when Paul bumped into Paul McCartney, and he talks McCartney into being on his Podcast)
We dive back into Beatles for Sale by talking about the Beatles stomp and clap connection, the clear ties between Beatles covers and LeBron signing to the 76ers, the Lennon / Claypool Delirium, Beatles branding, frozen pizza sponsorships for Blotto Beatles, getting Taco Bell by mistake, if Tommy should wear Nantucket red pants to an upcoming wedding, and our thoughts of the new McCartney record with the greatest Paulfessional, Mr. Sam Whiles....so we didn't really talk Beatles for Sale at all.

Summer is officially over and we are on our final week of our series in 1 John! Joseph McCartney teaches through these final verses of 1 John 5:13-21.
“A sailor doesn't control the sea, but understanding the waves matters enormously.” — Mikko Ketovuori Our mood, as always, is miserable. Iran, the price of oil, the AfD, the long-term cancers from 9/11 dominate the headlines. But today's guest thinks we've got the mood wrong. The writer Mikko Ketovuori — who wrote the intro to the Finnish edition of my own The Internet Is Not the Answer — has a new book out, Waves of Change, which is a study of the zeitgeist. Social mood drives events, Ketovuori argues, not the other way around. So the news measures nothing but the mood itself. Are our times actually bad? “No,” Ketovuori insists. Things — from the arts to our abundance of food — are actually pretty good. Today's perceived misery is, in fact, just the undertow. Surfing the waves of history — from the Dutch tulip mania of the 17th century to the 19th century philosophers buried in Highgate cemetery to the swinging Sixties — Ketovuori is actually bullish on our current futures. So buy the future. It will cheer everyone up. Five Takeaways • Social Mood Drives Events. The inversion at socionomics' core: we assume events shape our feelings, but the collectively shared, largely unconscious social mood comes first, framing how we interpret everything — the news is “a sociometer,” reflecting the mood rather than the world (in the bright-mooded 1980s, Ketovuori notes, the news simply read better). The field — sociology plus economics — was founded by Robert Prechter, the 1970s Wall Street guru behind Elliott Wave International, with whom Ketovuori has worked for twenty years; the book distills four decades of that tradition, “not totally my idea,” he says with Finnish honesty. And are our times actually bad? No: “actually, we are doing pretty well. You can have access to all the arts, all the books… We have plenty of food. What else do we need?” The misery is the mood — and if you surround yourself with miserable people and search the Internet for miserable news, you will reliably feel miserable.• The Beatles and the Dow. Prechter founded the theory on a startling correlation between the Beatles' rise and the Dow Jones average — and Ketovuori ran the replication: Nokia's share price against the pop music Finland listened to around 2006–2009, published in Cambridge's Popular Music journal. Music, he argues, reflects social mood almost predictively. The chicken-and-egg question resolves cleanly in socionomics: the sixties made the Beatles, not the reverse — had Lennon and McCartney been born ten years earlier, “the time decides whether you succeed or not.” Which reframes where the next optimism will come from: unknowable in advance, because “optimism comes first, and then we see the fruits” — only afterward do we anoint the artists, writers, and politicians who captured the essence of the era.• Marx & Spencer, Staring. The book's set piece — written standing in Highgate Cemetery, a stroll from Andrew's old school: Karl Marx's tourist-thronged tomb faces the largely forgotten grave of Herbert Spencer, the Social Darwinist — “the father of capitalism and the father of socialism are staring at each other,” and Ketovuori imagines their conversation after the tourists leave and night falls. Andrew completes the triangle with Highgate's third resident, Alexander Litvinenko — the Putin-poisoned defector whose polonium killing, Ketovuori marvels via Luke Harding's reporting, cost something like £50 million “just to wipe out one man. So somebody hated him very much.” The cemetery lesson is the book's: some things don't change, they return cyclically — Wagner and mad Ludwig included. Cemeteries, both agree, are creative places.• The Finnish Corrective. Finland supplies the book's ballast. The history: the Winter War against Stalin (Hitler's ally, by the Ribbentrop pact), independence kept “just by fighting back,” then the deck reshuffled by Barbarossa — and, little remembered, Finland driving the Germans from Lapland after 1944. The present: Finnish far right and far left importing American arguments verbatim — “that's crazy, because we are not Americans” — opinions taken from media rather than lived. And the myth-busting: days before recording, new PISA results showed Finland's fabled education system “has really gone down.” The thirty-year teacher educator's advice to admiring Americans: “look to Estonia.” Even education, he notes from a chapter on lecturing at Columbia Teachers College, moves in cycles of idealization and correction.• A Sailor Doesn't Control the Sea. The agency question, answered in the episode's pull quote: we steer our own lives, but the social mood — the sea itself — no one controls. The evidence tour: Disney thrives in optimistic times while 1975's dark mood produced Taxi Driver and “the movie about the shark” (past guest territory twice over — Scorsese biographer Mark Binelli visits soon); Prechter's firm, Ketovuori claims, predicted the date of the Crimea war from wave analysis of the Moscow stock exchange; and yesterday's Edmans episode gets its socionomic sequel in his tulip-mania essay. To Andrew's closing paradox — American stock-market exuberance and cultural apocalypticism simultaneously, per this week's Kirsch episode on UFOs — Ketovuori answers “neither” is real, noting the last great UFO panic also preceded a world war. His distinction: technology amplifies mood but doesn't originate it — the Internet books were euphoric before 2008 and dark after, as Andrew's own shelf attests. We, the people, decide how to use it. Andrew's sign-off takes the bullish view: buy the future — it will cheer everyone up. About the Guest Mikko Ketovuori is a University Lecturer in the Department of Teacher Education at the University of Turku, Finland. His research spans socionomics and herd theory, education policy, and the role of the arts in society; he has lectured across Asia, Europe, and North America, and is the author of Socionomics: How Social Mood Shapes Society. He also wrote the introduction to the Finnish edition of Andrew's The Internet Is Not the Answer. Waves of Change: A Study of Social Mood (Iff Books, October 2026) collects thirteen essays on the tides of collective feeling. He lives in Turku, the old capital of Finland.

Host Nate Wilcox welcomes James Kaplan to discuss his book “Irving Berlin: New York Genius” — a life that runs from a Lower East Side childhood to a fifty-year career at the centre of American popular song, and then to almost thirty years of silence. Jerome Kern's line is the one everybody quotes, and it holds up: Berlin has no place in American music, he is American music. Kaplan and Nate draw the comparison to Lennon and McCartney — the same work ethic, the same instinct for how a song is built — and then note the difference, which is that Berlin's run did not stop after ten years. He was having hits in 1911 and still writing in the 1960s.

For 17 years, Rachel McCartney had set aside a music career and all the anxiety and uncertainty that came along with it. She was in her mid-30s and wanted a family and some stability. Once she started a new life as an ICU nurse and mother to two young children, her musical career and the momentum she had created over the past three decades in New England and Western Pennsylvania didn't much cross her mind.I met Rachel when I was 18 years old while at Emerson College. It was the year 2000 and the folk scene in Boston was popping with incredible talent: Lori McKenna, Deb Talan (The Weepies), Anaïs Mitchell and many others were selling out shows left and right in listening rooms across New England. Rachel was a frequent name that popped up in the newspaper, on radio, as a busker in the subway and around town at venues like The Kendall Cafe, Toad and of course, the folk mothership, aka Club Passim. It was a lucrative time for the singer-songwriter with a big voice and great songs.She would frequently appear with another Boston-famous, yet under-the-radar songwriter, the Atlanta-born Brian Webb. Although, their friendship was hard-won after their brief romantic relationship ended. However, they kept performing together as the two were each other's musical kindreds, their voices blending effortlessly. If you were at Rachel's recent album release, you were treated to some Rachel & Brian classics that lit up the WERS Coffeehouse in the early 2000's. Needless to say, I am so thrilled that Rachel's released new music and am very excited that she agreed to be on the podcast today.In our conversation, we discuss her move from Iowa to Massachusetts as a teen and how the impact of that has influenced the way she makes decisions for her kids. She talks about her relationship to the guitar, her singing and her songwriting. She addresses the allegations that, indeed, she is a horse girl through and through.She moved to Pittsburgh in her 20s on a whim, something we have in common. She reflects on Pittsburgh, busking in Boston and what it was like to choose a stable life with a family in nursing. Her new album, Taming Dragons, was produced by Zack Hickman and she shares what it felt like to be in the studio after nearly two decades. I was pleased to point out that dragons also appear on Tori Amos' new album (In the Time of Dragons), which then led Rachel to share what the dragon symbolizes for her.We did this interview in my backyard (like Oprah) and you can hear birds, lawn mowers and Francie in the background, but I think it all adds to the atmosphere. I have interviewed Rachel many times, but it was all before my cerebral cortex was fully formed, so this is basically the first real interview I have done with the fabulous Rachel McCartney! - CindyFollow Basic Folk on social media: https://basicfolk.bio.link/Sign up for Basic Folk's newsletter: https://bit.ly/basicfolknewsHelp produce Basic Folk by contributing: https://basicfolk.com/donate/Interested in sponsoring us?

Join us for our second to the last sermon in our series on 1 John! This week Pastor Joey teaches through 1 John 5:1-12.
Paul McCartney and Wings entered one of their most adventurous periods with 'London Town', the atmospheric 1978 album featuring “With a Little Luck,” “London Town,” “I'm Carrying,” “Girlfriend,” and “Morse Moose and the Grey Goose.”Author Luca Perasi joins Booked On Rock to reveal how Wings recorded aboard a boat in the Virgin Islands, why Paul McCartney began incorporating synthesizers and electronic textures, and how his creative partnership with Denny Laine shaped the album. Luca also discusses the departures of Jimmy McCulloch and Joe English, the making and phenomenal success of “Mull of Kintyre,” and the unreleased fan favorite “Waterspout.” Was Wings still a genuine band—or had it become a vehicle for McCartney's musical vision? Did contemporary critics underestimate the album? And does London Town deserve a more prominent place in the Wings catalogue?Luca's book, Wings: London Town—The Story of an Adventurous Album, takes readers inside the songs, sessions and unusual circumstances behind one of McCartney's most atmospheric and overlooked records.

Vingt-cinq ans que je vous raconte La Story sur Nostalgie, 25 ans où j'ai pu laisser parler cette passion qui m'a ouvert les portes d'un autre monde quand j'étais môme. Mais malheureusement, il n'y pas eu que des événements heureux qui m'ont valu de revenir en radio sur des carrières légendaires. Et dès la saison 1 de cette série d'ailleurs. Je me rappelle arriver un matin de novembre 2001 chez Nosta et m'écrier quand on m'annonce la nouvelle : oh non pas lui. Oui, George Harrison est mort, à l'âge de 58 ans. Un second Beatles de parti, c'est terrible !Pauvre George. Il venait de sortir un nouvel album qui ne passionnait pas grand monde, il faut bien le dire. C'est vrai qu'il était le plus discret des quatre Beatles mais il avait pourtant signé quelques classiques du plus grand groupe de l'histoire comme Taxman, While my guitar gently weeps ou encore Something, sa seule chanson à avoir eu droit à une sortie en single en face A.Et c'est vrai aussi que George a souffert d'être le plus jeune. Pour Lennon et McCartney c'est le p'tit car il n'a que quatorze ans quand il les rejoint alors que les deux autres en ont quinze et dix-sept. Il faut dire que, un ou deux ans de plus, à cet âge-là, c'est énorme. Et donc George a dû se battre pour placer une chanson de lui par album car Lennon & McCartney ne le prenaient pas au sérieux. Je vous l'ai dit, c'est le petit, tellement qu'en 1971, il y a 55 ans, il sortait un triple album, All Things Must Pass, N°1 des ventes, avec toutes les chansons dont les autres n'ont pas voulu et qui auraient pu être des chansons des Beatles s'ils avaient continué leur route ensemble.George était revenu au premier plan en 1987 avec un énorme hit et un album à succès. A cette époque, il n'y avait plus personne pour y croire. Sauf ses amis Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, Roy Orbison et Jeff Lynne d'Electric Light Orchestra avec qui il enregistre une chanson pour une face B d'un single de cet album sous le nom des Travelling Wilburys. Sa firme de disques lui dit de voir plus loin car c'est vrai qu'on n'a jamais vu dans l'histoire, un super groupe d'un niveau pareil. Et voilà George encore N°1.Puis c'est le succès des séries Beatles Anthology en 1995 et 96 où ils enregistrent deux nouveaux titres à trois, mais en 1997 tombe la terrible nouvelle : George souffre du cancer du fumeur qui dans quatre ans, finira par avoir raison de lui. Entretemps, il survivra au terrible homejacking perpétré par un fan fou furieux. Souffrant des 40 coups de couteau reçus, George Harrison n'en a pour autant pas perdu son légendaire sens de l'humour avec lequel il avait brillé au sein des Beatles. Dans le communiqué qu'il publie le lendemain depuis son lit d'hôpital, il déclare que son agresseur n'était ni un voleur, ni un gars refusé à une audition pour les Travelling Wilburys.Alors pour se souvenir de lui, on va revenir à cette époque des Beatles où George devait batailler pour placer un titre sur un disque ; et bien, juste retour des choses, figurez-vous que l'une de ses compositions est aujourd'hui la plus écoutée des Beatles en streaming, et elle commence comme ceci ...
On this episode of Talking Guitars on Johnny Beane TV, we're talking about a newly unearthed Beatles recording that reveals something fascinating about one of their most iconic guitar riffs!
Zach Heinzerling is an Academy Award-nominated and Emmy Award-winning director based in New York City. He began his career at HBO working on four consecutive Emmy Award-winning documentaries and the Emmy Award-winning series “24/7” as a Field Producer and Cinematographer. In 2012, he left HBO to complete his feature debut, the multi-award-winning film, “Cutie and the Boxer”, which he both directed and shot. “Cutie and the Boxer” was nominated for the 2014 Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature. The film also won a 2015 Emmy Award for Best Feature Documentary. In 2015 he was enlisted by Beyoncé Knowles-Carter to direct the five-part web series “Self-Titled” for her album, “Beyoncé.” In 2019 he directed an episode of “Dirty Money” for Netflix. In 2021, he directed the critically acclaimed 6-part series “McCartney 3,2,1” starring Sir Paul McCartney and Rick Rubin for Hulu. Salon called it “quite simply, the most engaging documentary ever made about the songwriting exploits of popular music's most successful composer.” His latest docu series entitled “Rafa” is a four part show for HBO that follows Nadal through his final professional season. He is also the director of “Stolen Youth: Inside the Cult of Sarah Lawrence” which the The New Yorker calls “a remarkable work, advancing the prestige true-crime genre's slow but steady reorientation toward centering victims,” while Variety raved “…with a startling rawness and directness, Heinzerling's work makes a case for itself as an unusually sensitive and strong outing in its genre.” Learn more about your ad choices.

This Legends episode spotlights Chas Chandler. He's the guy who turned Jimmy James into Jimi Hendrix. Here's the story. Chas Chandler was the bass player for the Animals, the ‘60s British Invasion band fronted by Eric Burdon, which had a string of hits in that era including “The House Of The Rising Sun”, “Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood”, “I'm Crying” and many others. They had a rougher, earthier sound than most of the other British Invasion bands. After tiring of touring nonstop with the Animals for very little money, Chandler left the band to became an artist manager. And then he got lucky. He discovered a young guitar player in a New York City club who played left-handed and who had something unique going on. He became his manager and took Jimmy James - as he was then known - to England, and introduced him to all the great English musicians. One night in particular all the greats came to see him live - McCartney, Clapton, Beck, Townshend - and they were blown away by his talent and ingenuity. Chandler put this guitarist together with two white English musicians, Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell. And this trio emerged as the Jimi Hendrix Experience. When they came back to the U.S. they performed at the Monterey Pop Festival, and they became stars. Their first album, “Are You Experienced”, took the world by storm. Their sound was completely unique. And Hendrix's guitar playing was simply out of this world. They set off a musical Revolution. Chandler's enthusiasm, guidance and support helped fuel Hendrix during the early days. It was Chandler's idea, for example, for Hendrix to set his guitar on fire which became a staple of his live performances. Hendrix continued to soar and dominate the rock scene until his untimely death at age 27 in 1970. But keep in mind that all of this might never have happened without Chas Chandler, an unsung hero of the rock era.
“Oklahoma was never like this?” Really, Sir Paul? AGAIN with the complaining about the 1999, Hugh Jackman-led revival of Rodgers & Hammerstein's first banger? Oh sure, Paul - go ahead and be all Tipper Gore-y about that opening scene where Aunt Eller is churning butter like some barnyard horndog, milking every delicate inch of that up and down churn work. And don't get me started on how Paul handled the edits to the “Farmer & The Cowman” dance break! He (allegedly) threw the London Cast Recording CD at Heather Mills!! That's a $17.99 CD, my guy! Who the hell knows what Macca was talking about in his 1986 semi-hit, “Press”. But we'll be damned if it isn't one of the best pure pop songs of the mid 80's. Much like the album from which it came, it's never gotten the love it's so obviously due. Until now, as Tony & T.J. freshly (?) assess side two of “Press To Play” with open arms (#Journey) and open eyes (#Incubus). Along the way, they ask (rather intuitively, if we do say so ourselves):

Forgive us, dear reader, for sounding Jaded. But most real McCartney fans will admit that Aerosmith's 2001 LP “Just Push Play” is better than literally any solo Macca; and perhaps even better than most Beatles albums. (*Does not include “Live At The Star Club Vol. 2”) But, in turn, would there even be an Aerosmith without Macca's 1986 offering, “Press To Play”? We'll leave that to the rock scholars to decide. But one thing is for sure: “Press To Play” is now officially 40 years old, or, in U.S. presidential terms, at least three decades older than the girls a certain orange baboon used to regularly party with. (In fairness, it's tough for real patriots to get too worked up about that, especially when Obama once wore a tan suit.) T.J.'s been in love with this cassette since its release the summer of 1986. Tony's had the opposite reaction since he was contractually obligated to listen to the album twice, in 2020 and 2026; in brave service of arguably America's Favorite Podcast (TM). This week, the Gab Two discuss whether “Press To Play” has aged well and warrants more respect in Macca's catalog. Does it deserve an Archive Collection reissue before or after “Ocean's Kingdom”? Are there more remixes of “Press” than there are takes of “Not Guilty”? And what about the other pertinent Beatles questions you won't hear on woke Newsmax, like:
"This is the final Rock School show. We felt 1000 shows was a good number to end on since Tammy and I are retiring at the end of this year. Thank you to all who ran the show. You gave us an audience. For this final hour, we are looking at the top 10 moments from the almost 20 years of shows. Thanks again and goodbye. We sure did enjoy your company."
"This is the second to last Rock School show and I'm using it to pitch my 4th album, Widow Maker, which went live last week on Spotify and Apple Music. I hope you enjoy it and I hope to see you all next week for the final Rock School Show."

Most leaders try to restore a struggling performer's confidence with a pep talk. It almost never works. When Jason McCartney had written himself off, a coach did something far more deliberate, and it pulled him back from the edge of walking away. The approach is simple, repeatable, and the opposite of what most people reach for.

"Every list of the best bands contains the same bands in the top 20 so I made a new list. I looked at several best band lists and eliminated those top 20 bands. My list gets rid of the obvious choices and gives many lesser known bands a chance. See what you think."
"Tammy and I have decided to retire from our jobs and also from creating the Rock School Radio show. I know this is the 744th show on PRX but it's actually our 997th show overall. We will do this show and three more, ending on our 1000th show. To that end, in this show we will announce some musicians who might be retiring soon themselves. We will list the oldest people touring this summer."

The Strange Brew - artist stories behind the greatest music ever recorded
The Iveys came together in Swansea in the early 1960s, with Ron Griffiths on bass alongside guitarist Pete Ham. Bill Collins took over as manager, and it was during their residency at the Marquee that Beatles aide Mal Evans caught their set and carried a demo tape to Apple. Live tapes, and dozens of demos have since been unearthed from the Golders Green house where they wrote and rehearsed. Ray Davies also took an interest and recorded a handful of their songs. Tony Visconti also produced, including Ron’s ‘Dear Angie.' For Badfinger's ‘Come and Get It' Paul McCartney read an interview where Ron complained the group got nothing from The Beatles, turned up at Golders Green with a demo, and told them to copy it exactly, no changes, this is the hit. At Abbey Road with McCartney producing, it was Ron who broke the rule with a Hendrix style bass run at the end of the take. McCartney kept it in. Not long after, a domestic row over late night noise waking his baby got Ron dropped from the group, right on the cusp of its biggest success. The tapes and demos have kept surfacing, and he’s now back on lead vocals for ‘Take Good Care of My Baby' on the new album Just Look Inside The Cover – Songs of Pete Ham.

"I was talking about the Paul is Dead conspiracy theory in class one day and the students began asking me if I knew about THIS theory. And then THIS theory. We went on for 30 minutes and then I did some research. There were so many theories I had never heard of. Hopefully they are new to you as well. We have a long list."

Asher remembers when Paul McCartney and John Lennon played “I Want to Hold Your Hand” for him for the first time. “I thought, am I losing my mind, or is this one of the best songs I've ever heard in my life?” McCartney, who was dating Asher's sister at the time, was living with his family. A new documentary, ‘Peter Asher: Everywhere Man,' chronicles Asher's life in the record industry. He spoke with Terry Gross about his own band in the British Invasion (Peter and Gordon), discovering James Taylor and launching Linda Ronstadt.

How can we design equitable employee benefits? Employee benefits dictate far more than basic health coverage – they're a fundamental indicator of financial security, holistic health, and overall workplace equity. Traditional plans often default to nuclear family frameworks that inadvertently disqualify equity deserving groups. By moving away from static, one-size-fits-all perks and implementing a strategic DEI lens, organizations can leverage usage data to build flexible coverage systems that shift from basic administrative compliance to a true corporate culture of human belonging. On this episode of Just One Q, Dominique chats with Kristin McCartney, Director of People & Culture at J.L. Richards & Associates. They discuss how employers can transition to data-driven, flexible frameworks when creating benefit plans. Kristin breaks down enhancements that benefit employees who are S2LGBTQ+, neurodivergent, Indigenous, first-generation professionals, or who practice certain religions. She argues that designing benefits for all signals a deeply supportive culture.

In this episode, we've collected listener feedback on Paul McCartney's The Boys of Dungeon Lane, summarizing four core themes: the album as a slow burner that rewards repeat listens, praise as a surprising triumph for his age, debates about vocal tone and production, and a perceived lack of McCartney-style whimsy. We also highlight listener comments on standout tracks (e.g., "Life Can Be Hard"), track-by-track reactions, and a discussion of album variants and collector culture, concluding that overall fan response is positive and emotionally resonant. -Check out albums to buy, including The Boys of Dungeon Lane, in our Amazon store!

"Back on May 31st Black Crowes frontman Chris Robinson chided an audience for chanting USA. Much of the audience then walked out. I wondered if this had happened before and it certainly did. We have multiple examples of an audience turning on the performer and vice versa. For many we have the audio from the stage."

“I do live here and now, but I often think about the past. But then again, I think a lot of people do. So I think writers, what are they going to draw on?”Mark Savage speaks to musician Paul McCartney.Born in Liverpool, England, during the Second World War, he found fame as a member of the legendary British band The Beatles in the 1960s, widely regarded as one of the most influential acts in music history.McCartney shared primary singing and songwriting duties with bandmate John Lennon, and along with George Harrison and Ringo Starr, the four-piece became a global pop music sensation with hits such as Twist and Shout, Yesterday and Hey Jude.They remain one of the best-selling musical acts of all time alongside the likes of Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson.McCartney was knighted for his services to music in 1997, but despite his huge achievements, the 83-year-old seems to be showing no interest in retirement — he's releasing his 19th solo album.The Boys of Dungeon Lane is inspired by his experiences growing up in post-war Liverpool, during which a young McCartney, carrying a guitar and wearing a bowler hat to catch attention, would hitchhike with John Lennon to places as far away as Paris.

Boys of Dungeon Lane, McCartney's collaboration with producer Andrew Watt, arrived when McCartney was 83 and and he came out swinging: the opening track greets listeners with a dissonant, unresolved guitar chord that sets the album's tone. Harmonic instability runs through the entire record: chromatic mediants, deceptive cadences, and persistent pedal tones prevent even the most nostalgic songs from settling into comfort. The album's lyrics focus on McCartney's pre-Beatles Liverpool youth, territory unfamiliar even to long-time fans. The songs pay deliberate sonic tribute to specific Beatles recordings: Mellotron strings echoing "Strawberry Fields Forever," a backwards laugh tape loop answering "Tomorrow Never Knows," a first-ever McCartney/Starr vocal duet so close in timbre the two voices are nearly indistinguishable.

Philip Norman has written books about the Beatles – and John, Paul and George - and now turns the spotlight on the man who launched them and the extreme personal and professional obstacles in the dramatic path of his short life, the man who built a shield around them but couldn't protect himself. We talk to him here about ‘Mr Moonlight: Brian Epstein and the Making of the Beatles' with particular attention to … … how he changed Britain's image and was mortified to get no recognition for it … the Beatle whose demands he was always fastest to execute … the level of homophobia and anti-Semitism he had to absorb … his reckless pursuits in the days when homosexuality could mean life imprisonment … contract killers, blackmail, rigged roulette wheels and why the Krays said “it wasn't us” when they heard he'd died … the way he fashioned his own myth and airbrushed others who'd helped the Beatles succeed … why McCartney's 21st birthday party could have ended the band … his genius (and fraudulence) as a salesman … the double catastrophe of Brian's US merchandising deal … John, Aunt Mimi and “a story about the British class system” … and the chaperone on George and Pattie's first date.

In this week's Sitdown, Willie Geist gets together with McCartney to talk about his new music, that includes a song with The Beatles members.
