Reviews

4.7 out of 5 stars from 86 ratings
  • Not perfect, but really good.

    Some of the factual content could be more thoroughly researched, but as a classical musician, Kenyon speaks my language and I like his musical analyses.

  • Nearly unlistenable

    This used to be a fun podcast. But Peter has become insufferable. I don’t know what’s worse, the word salad he spews during the impressions segment, his childish persona during the story time portion or his grating sycophancy when there’s a guest. In short: He adds nothing to the episodes. I think I see now why their band broke up. Just let Kenyon do the show by himself.

  • Great show

    This is a fantastic Beatles podcast - and I say that as someone who has listened non-stop to Beatle podcasts (plus the brilliant A History Of Rock Music In 500 Songs) since the beginning of COVID. I love their friendship, interaction, humour and knowledgeable discourse. Essential listening if you’re a deep fan.
