We had to start in the way all of the Beatlesphere is this week, with a reflection on the release of Beatles Anthology 2025.  Once we express our feelings on that, we transition into our episode proper and cover rock bands with two lives, our Beatles themed tombstones, some Paul love, some Jeff Tweedy love, mixed feeling on James McCartney, and the Beatles Beverly Hills phase.  From there we are joined by our favorite neighbor from the North, Ethan Alexanian, to discuss a little more about James McCartney and the Brill Building cover, Chains.

We are on the road to Episode 100, and number 95 can only start with a voicemail from a bonafide famous person that includes the story of two mice named Gary and Steve.  From there we wonder if the story of the Beatles is a sad song, if the Beatles should have cameos in the Beatles movies, if Sam Whiles is still mad at our takes on seasonal Beatles records, if Paul's demo of this track was recorded on a voicemail to Jane, why the Beatles felt so rushed on Rubber Soul, if you should write breakup songs while staying in your girlfriend's parents home, if an Astin Martin leaves Liverpool at 3pm how long it takes to get to Jane's photo shoot, how many terms Becker has for hi-hats, and where the bounce is in Paul's "You Won't See Me."

The Beatles changed the world with three simple words: Yeah, Yeah, Yeah—and we’re here to overthink (and over-drink) every last one of them. This week, we take a deep dive into She Loves You with James Campion, author of Take a Sad Song: The Emotional Currency of Hey Jude. We discuss everything from Paul’s dad’s questionable lyrical edits to the harmonic genius behind this early Beatles barnburner. Plus, we take a few detours into dramatic readings, home decor philosophies, and the eternal question—does this song still slap after five pints?

Where does this iconic track land on our ever-expanding, ever-argued-over Big Ol’ List of Beatles Songs? Tune in, pour one out, and find out. Out now—dig it!

Where does this absolute ripper land on our big ol’ list of Beatles tunes? Stick around, pour another round, and find out.

It's time to get scholarly at Blotto HQ.  Put on your robe, light your pipe, pour a snifter of brandy, and retire to your study as we welcome Kenneth Womack (The Wo!) for this extrasode.  Ken is the author of the newly released JOHN LENNON 1980: THE LAST DAYS IN THE LIFE, and SOLID STATE: THE STORY OF ABBEY ROAD AND THE END OF THE BEATLES, among others.  He joined Team Blotto to discuss the burning questions only a Beatles scholar can answer, what he's been up to in the pandemic, the enormous loss we all still from from the passing of John Lennon, and the Yoko song, "Walking on Thin Ice," which features John Lennon's last guitar work.

Oh, and he said we could drunk text him in the future.

There's so much going on at Blotto HQ that we had to release an extrasode just to cover it all!

First, we have one week left on our Sgt. Pepper's sweepstakes, which you can find here.  Enter to win a Sgt. Pepper's picture disc, the opportunity to name the "Magical Mystery Word" for an upcoming episode, or a Blotto Beatles prize pack.

Second, we have merch!  Buy some here!

Third, we were recent guests on the Ranking the Beatles podcast.  Our new pod pals Jonathan and Julia are doing some amazing work, and we were psyched to join them and discuss "I'll Get You" on episode #210.  You can grab it here or wherever you get your podcasts.

Fourth, we are still working hard to get original Beatles drummer Pete Best a blue verified check mark on Twitter, and we need your help.  Shout it from the mountains: #PeteBestGetThatCheck

Finally, and most importantly, we are super chuffed up to announce a partnership with Cape Cod's Devil's Purse brewery.  We recently stopped by to see their operation and were given a wide variety of very delicious and very free beer.  To celebrate, we decided it was time to go on a flight.  Welcome to the first edition of THE FLIGHT ALBUM, featuring our good pal Chris.

Who takes a decidedly anti-Paul stance this early on?  All questions are answered within.

The Blottos start with a review of the new Beatleverse trailer before diving headfirst into a full-on banger of a Beatles track with author Jack Marriott; from there we quickly dive into our day drinker, the fingerpicking murders of Donovan, cozying up to a bar on a Sunday Funday, the upcoming bangers and clangers to be tackled, having a plastered pilgrimage through Beatledom, drinking above pubs that hold 50-year-old birthday parties, Manchester Britpop, rucksacks with old cassettes, being shit faced at the end of the bar and requesting Flowers in the Dirt, if Paul knows how much a pack of cigarettes costs, Tommy marketing himself as an audiobook reader, and all the magic parts that add up to the travel-focused "Ticket to Ride."

It was a singular joy to close out the year in episode 85 with Tom Hunyady and Andy Nicholes of the 2Legs podcast as we discussed the McCartney '71 tapes, some real moments of what this work means to us when other things feel upside down, a State of the Blotto Union, The George RR Martins of New England, New Year's Blotto Resolutions (including Stamos), why mistakes happen on the list, the Blotto Mono Box Set, couples counseling for podcast hosts, the mandatory Thanksgiving/Last Waltz chat, the Backbeat soundtrack, the Beatles early bongo obsession, Shea Stadium notes, if McCartney actually drove a boat or started a campfire in his Anthology interviews, the first time Ringo hit a mystery word for us, the best day of McCartney in the studio, Andy Nicholes calling "Yesterday" the worst McCartney Beatles song ever, a lot of talk about our mutual friend Sam Whiles, and the McCarntey barn burner "I'm Down."

The interstitial music you heard between our intro and the welcome of the 2Legs gents is an original Scotty C. composition entitled "Elbows."  Once you listen too the episode, you will understand why this was a perfect place to point that out.

We begin our octogenarian episode with Tommy's artistic expression of his anger towards Becker before we record an intro in arrears, featuring the magic of our new THX (or THC) bumper.   And then, friends, 80 is a big number, and we are doing a big song with a big guest!  We welcome Mr. Victor DeLorenzo of the Violent Femmes to discuss what some would consider to be the most popular Beatles song.  Victor was kind enough to give us the time to talk about his work in one of the most important alternative bands of all time before we discuss one of the most important works of the Fab Four.  Where will we rank it?  There's only one way to find out.

Tommy starts by telling the other Blottos about the secret side project he's been working on.  From there we do some great Foley work before bringing back fan favorite Sam Whiles to discuss our feelings on the revisited Beatles Anthology, Sam's personal project of making a McCartney-only Beatles Anthology, the story of a friend who encountered Mark David Chapman, our new show pitch "Mark David Chat, Man," seasonal Beatles, Ringo's art show, Ringo's charity to support charitable organizations, and the timpani-heavy "Every Little Thing."

We get ambushed by an AI Tommy intro before the real one takes us into the world of Ringo's haberdashery.  From there we do the work of fighting against those who say we aren't drinking enough on air, discussing what we would do with a billion dollars, thinking about Rick Rubin as the zen master of mixologists for your Blottos, listening to some more voicemails from listeners, considering the Dad rock of The Beatles, fighting about street level vs. collegiate Beatles, hiring the therapist from Some Kind of Monster, introducing our new listener suggested Let It Pee segment, and a big one in Beatles material, Can't Buy Me Love.

Baby, it's time to crack into episode 78 where your Blottos discuss the infamous Cameron Crowe/Beatles connections, the amazing influence of our guest Skylar Moody, feeling on the new Beatles films, feelings on Timothy Chalamet, a record number of calls from fans, a surprise drop in from Beatles podcasting royalty talking about the Queen Bee's cover of Blackbird, wearing a "What Would Jonathan Do?" bracelet, getting the Beatles couches, mispronouncing Clavioline, and the ballad of the hippy movement, "Baby, You're a Rich Man."

Episode 77 starts with a dive into Ringo's role as the original Beatle to bring Indian music to the band before we discuss breweries appropriating rockstars visages, teaching Scotty how to drink beer from a bottle, THC beverages, Cheech as the go-getter of the duo, when the Beatles were all by themselves, probably a little too much Jawbreaker talk, RB throwing a middle eight in to make a Beatles song better, Scotty coming out late with this a sleeper fave, and the questionable Ringo sung "What Goes On."

We kick into the last quarter of our first century of episodes with a deep discussion of reprises, especially as they relate to SOAD jerks.  We then record an INTRO IN ARREARS before introducing true pod royalty in our guest Alex Goldman, taking Alex on a journey that includes a serious discussion of pronunciation, the worst Tweets of 2023, Alex's music Slow Fawns, The Beastie Boys, a lot about A Day in the Life, iconic 1-2-3-4s, the strange connections between podcast producers, and the end of the concept with an analysis of the Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band - Reprise.

It says it on the tin, people.  Your dear Blottos went to the 50th annual Fest for Beatles Fans, held this year at the TWA Hotel at JFK Airpot - the very same airport where the Beatles landed 60 years ago.  MARVEL! as we reflect on our experience.  THRILL! as we play field recordings and interviews.  GUFFAW! as we have a few yucks and discuss who ended up on stage with all the performers to end the night.

The Blottos made the news!  After we revel in the attention of Deuce Newsington, we talk about our poddy count, take heat on Blotto Vetoes, review portions of the Billy Joel doc, wonder if the microphone really smells like a beer, debate which Blotto would play best on NPR, and dig into what was our long lost pilot track of "I'm Only Sleeping," with our new friend Mary Devlin.  Play it in reverse and you might find a secret track.

How do we start our septuagennial episode?  With a BLOTTO BEATLES EXCLUSIVE!

We then jump into the episode proper with Tommy's new catch phrase, some listener homework, Scotty C never skipping hands day, Irish Budweisers, another amazing example of RB breaking down rock and roll patterns, Tommy saying the word "standard" about 400 times, Becker telling us the favorite songs of each William, Tommy singing every song with the lyric "I Will," and the rhumba-inspired White Album standard, I Will.

Did you all know there's a NEW Beatles song?
Did you know it's the LAST Beatles song?
Did you know it was originally recorded to a CASSETTE tape?

You did?

Well, we wanted to talk about it, and we wanted to do it with some of our best pod pals. Listen in as we are joined by Allison from BC the Beatles and Jonathan from Ranking the Beatles as we dig into "Now & Then," it's humble beginnings and futuristic endings, the music video, the remixed "Love Me Do," that artwork, and which member of the 1992 Dream Team Tommy most resembles.  It's a fun one!

It says it right on the tin, people.  Pushkin Media reached out to us and asked if we would be interested in hearing a preview episode of the brand new "McCartney: A Life in Lyrics" podcast, which was just released today, October 4, 2023.  What you will hear within this episode are the Blotto reactions to the first episode, which focuses on "Eleanor Rigby," followed by the McCartney episode, in full.

Listen here, and then make sure to subscribe to this newcomer to Beatles Podcasting - we really think he's got something.

Without further ado, Blotto Beatles Present: "McCartney: A Life in Lyrics."  We hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

Episode 68 begins with some AI shenanigans before we jump right into discussion with our guest, and the host of the incomparable "Paul or Nothing" podcast, Mr. Sam Whiles;  whether it would be more appropriate to tickle Paul McCartney or blow him a kiss; Hot Take Tommy; Sam feeling as if we gave him a throwaway track; Macca's new podcast; theories on the new Beatles track; carrying on the traditions of our parents; and the fantasy of "There's a Place."

It's our third annual BLOTTO VETOES Spectacular!  We take one episode a year and make a pitch to the other members of Team Blotto, attempting to move just one song on our Big Ol' List of Beatles songs.  Can we find consensus?  Will a song move this year?  Listen and find out!

We pop the cork on our 67th episode with our earliest Magical Mystery Word, the famous moment when George Harrison brought some friends to the home of his dentist, the reintroduction of Brother Pat, Pat's recap of Wrestlemania, a fan call, a piecing together of our memories from the Blost Weekend, the first installment of our new segment Rocky Rankcoon, if it's harder to be funny or Ernest, the original title of the Dropkick Murphy's "Shipping Out to Boston," and the Clapton-inspired "Savoy Truffle."

We conclude our second annual Blost Weekend by discussing Ringo's short lived soccer career, the most popular Blotto by way of the call-in line, a handsome Tommy minotaur, Colin as a consummate mixologist, Colin's first Malort experience, AI cocktails, the Beatles PJ pant-wearing era, lots more DMB than any of us expected, and the fight inspired Rubber Soul track, "I'm Looking Through You."

We also talk about a specific YouTube video a lot - please check out "Why Is This Beatles Song So Messy?" to hear some of the specific points we get into.

Welcome back to the second annual Blost Weekend, where we crack open the McCartney '71 tapes once again before revealing that this episode is the backside of a double header, recognizing Becker's athletic skill, questioning which Ted Lasso characters we are, complimenting our cocktails recommended by Chris Bach of Bachtails (WooHoo), counting the number of names Becker has for a harmonica, and talking about that blues harp tinged "I Should Have Known Better."

The Blottos are back, and we don't miss a beat as we tackle a bevy of topics such as the long lost Rubber Soul movie, the importance of the Backstreet Boys at the Sphere, It's a Paul World After All, the Scar Tissue audio book, the potential of seeing Paul in the Hamptons, the state of movie theaters, Modeloritas, and the Epstein files.  Finally, we turn up the volume as we discuss the George non-banger "I Need You."
