United Statesa month ago - What a great show
I’m a Beatles nerd and a book nerd and this podcast is great! I learn about books I didn’t know existed and get to hear Beatles scholars reflect about and sometimes reassess the classic narratives we’ve heard a million times before. Fresh angles and a lovely host. Just wish the episodes were longer!
