Well now this is a nice surprise. Grabbed this on a quick trip to the UK, opened it up back in NZ and it’s been signed… assume it’s legit, @ShippersUnbound ?

How do you like your Beatles facts? Exquisitely researched in minute detail?  In one-sided Anthology form? Or 8 hours long? This week, we're looking at the best sources of Beatles info on offer, in any format (semi-weekly antipodean podcasts not included) buzzsprout.com/1292333/12774…

We're back... again! This week: The Best Use of Non-Standard Instrument. Forget guitars and drums and pianos - this is all about the beautiful, the obscure or the downright odd that have turned up in Beatles tracks. And yes, the recorder gets a mention. buzzsprout.com/1292333/12710…

Misogyny! Death Threats! The Watusi! Jeff Lynne! This week's songs have it all! Join our wacky lineup of tracks as Run For Your Life, Revolution #9, If I Needed Someone and Free As A Bird take each other on. Right? RIGHT! buzzsprout.com/1292333/11296…
Well f**k... that's pretty much our response when we picked out this week's tracks.3 stone cold classics on the block: The Long & Winding Road, A Day in the Life and Yesterday. Two of these must fall... but which? Turn that tension knob up to 11.  buzzsprout.com/1292333/11296…

It had to happen really... 42 eps in & we've found the 4 Beatles songs that will rock our hitherto peaceful co-hosting to the core. But which threatens to shatter the peace? Lovely Rita, I Wanna Be Your Man, Ask Me Why or Please Please Me? Or all of them? buzzsprout.com/1292333/11296…

Tough one this week.... 🤔
STATS! We take stock of our 40 heats thus far this week, then crack straight into four more random Beatles tracks. This week, Here Comes The Sun, Honey Pie, All You Need is Love and I'll Be Back are served up on a platter for us to devour. buzzsprout.com/1292333/11171…

We haven't disagreed too widely over 36 heats. But this time around, we're polar opposites when it comes to one of these four songs: Dig A Pony, Wait, Little Child & Any Time at All. But will the split song win, in our ‘middle of the road' bunch? buzzsprout.com/1292333/11097…
This week, the cards have fallen in a interesting way, and by interesting we mean 'sigh'. We have to choose a winner though, and it'll be either When I Get Home, Everybody's Trying to Be My Baby, Carry The Weight, or I'll Cry Instead. Place your bets now. buzzsprout.com/1292333/10972…
Some big hitters this week: Love Me Do, I Want You (She's So Heavy), Lucy In the Sky with Diamonds and She Loves You. Only one will go through, just like only one has a wind machine, has been covered by Miley Cyrus, and has 3 drummers. Intrigued, much?buzzsprout.com/1292333/10972…
Well! This week gives us four fun contenders: I'm Happy Just to Dance with You, Birthday, You've Got to Hide Your Love Away and No Reply. But wait there's more! Anne Murray! Oasis! Dylan! Happy George! Hand Clap Mal! We're gonna have a good time! buzzsprout.com/1292333/10937…
It's hotting up this week as we open up a big brown bag of randomness (inside a zoo). Stepping up to the plate are Tell Me What You See, Within You Without You, Baby You're a Rich Man & Honey Don't.... Honey Don't.... Honey Don't.... Honey Don't. buzzsprout.com/1292333/10762…
