Episode #18 – "Let’s all get up and dance to a song.."
Well hello again. Sit down and take it easy for a bit, we’re all informal here. Mark and Col, the most reliable men this side of the River Mersey are fit for duty and back again to present another Beatleplaces Podcast, a nearly no-nonsense approach to enthusiastically talking about the Fabulous Four (which is The Beatles by the way) and where they came from (which is Liverpool, by the way). Along the way and between our wacky witterings, we present another instalment of our ongoing series “Beatles With An A” and this time we’ve landed on the letter “E”. This is our chance to tell you what we looked up about the Beatle songs, Beatle places, Beatle people and Beatles everything else that begins with an “E”. You can see where we going with this. We like to spice up the podcast with trivia and stuff and this time we have no less than 4 quizzes. Mark gives you “What Track Follows”, And “What Track Came Before” and “Name The B Side” which are all harder than you think, or at least, than I do. We reveal who the monkey is in the White Album song. Col tells you about Brian Epstein’s family tree back in Russia and raves about the genius radio presenter and Beatle friend, Kenny Everett and his influence on the band plus we explain what Vicks Inhalers had to do with the Beatles early drug taking. We’ve worked eight days a week to make this a good show so make the most of it and above all, treat yourself. Oh, here’s our bus now. Fares please.
