Screw It, We're Just Gonna Talk About the Beatles

The panel goes over the recent documentary ONE TO ONE: JOHN & YOKO. This is a look at John's only real solo concert, which he did at Madison Square Garden in 1972 to benefit a children's hospital. The doc also takes a lot of the news issues of the day which were influencing John and his struggles with immigration at the time.We're amazed at realizing how intense the nightly news was at this time, and it gave us new perspective on John's more politically minded songs and activism.There's a lot of fun footage, including many phone calls John and Yoko were having with their staff and reporters.Panelists: Will Hines, Brett Morris, Katie Plattner, Joel Spence------------------Subscribe for our full back catalog and monthly bonus episodes at https://www.screwitpodcasts.com/Join our free Discord chat: https://discord.gg/phXVFgB4ckEmail us at beatles@screwitpodcasts.com

The panel goes very deep on Anthology 4, the "new" volume of rare tracks released as a sequel to the 1994 documentary / music release Beatles Anthology.I put "new" in quotes since many of these tracks were included on the re-mixes of Revolver, White Album, Let It Be and Abbey Road.It's a fun listen. We spend a lot of time going track by track to give our thoughts on it.Panelists: Will Hines, Brett Morris, Katie Plattner, Joel Spence------------------Subscribe for our full back catalog and monthly bonus episodes at https://www.screwitpodcasts.com/Join our free Discord chat: https://discord.gg/phXVFgB4ckEmail us at beatles@screwitpodcasts.com

The panel watches the 1967 film Magical Mystery Tour. Originally a television special for the BBC on Boxing Day (day after Christmas, Americans) it is now seen as the Beatles third movie. A largely improvised film led by Paul, the film is seen as.... a mixed bag! A lot of the sequences are kinda, how do I put this, boring? But we also have a great music video for I Am The Walrus and some comedy(ish) sequences that are fun!Watch along with us!Panelists: Will Hines, Brett Morris, Katie Plattner, Joel Spence------------------Subscribe for our full back catalog and monthly bonus episodes at https://www.screwitpodcasts.com/Join our free Discord chat: https://discord.gg/phXVFgB4ckEmail us at beatles@screwitpodcasts.com

The panel goes over Paul's 2005 solo album Chaos and Creation in the Backyard. This was a big change of pace for Paul. He teamed up with Radiohead's producer Nigel Godrich and produced a series of mostly quiet, introspective and beautiful songs. The most famous track from this album is probably "Jenny Wren" but every one is interesting!------------------Join our free Discord chat: https://discord.gg/phXVFgB4ckEmail us at beatles@screwitpodcasts.com------Subscribe at screwitpocasts.com to support the podcast and to get monthly bonus episodes!
