Brilliantly series
Love listening to you girls and the great guests and content.
Would be so much better if you can get a consistent sound quality though, I struggle to hear sometimes. Keep up the great work 😊
I love this. Great stories and insights. I’d listen to it just for the accents.
Great topics. Great hosts. The hosts have Liverpool accents which makes it even cooler for me. Love this podcast. It's a podcast from Liverpool; can't beat that.
It’s always a treat to listen to Ellen and Laura as they illuminate the story of the Fabs via their warm and insightful interviews with key personnel. Liverpool must be proud.
Always has interesting guests on, great Beatles Podcast.
I will probably never get to visit Liverpool but this is the next best thing. Great Beatles pod. Cant wait for the next installment.
Great and informative podcast! The 2-parter with Pete Best was especially interesting and well done. 😎👍🏼
Just found this podcast and have listened to both seasons. Great job by the interviewers and interesting guests. I grew up in Liverpool in the 50s and 60s, was a Cavern member and saw the Beatles at the Empire and the Odeon in ‘63. Brings back a lot of memories. I have now lived in the USA for 36 years. Guess what is the first question people ask me when they find out I’m from Liverpool?!! Thanks to all involved with this podcast and to the Echo. Looking forward to Season 3😊
Another enjoyable listen ! Pete Wylie tells a good tale.... and yes , poor Anton didn’t get a look in!
Great to hear some real stories from real people who knew The Beatles and their story rather than the ‘glitterati’ versions. Really refreshing. Thank you.
I just discovered this podcast, incidentally, while on vacation in Liverpool (from the USA), and I really appreciate this new take of delving into pretty much anything closely associated with the Beatles. It doesn’t critique or evaluate its subjects, instead interviewing them - reporter style. I LOVE that it’s actually based in Liverpool, making it the most authentic Beatles-related podcast I’ve heard.
Nice work guys...keep up the good work
Sound quality a bit lacking at times but really enjoyed this. Especially hearing Pete Best talk about his short lived time as a Beatle.
Great
