Episode notes

This chapter explores the deep emotional impact of the Beatles' song 'Now and Then' on Paul McCartney, as he is moved to tears by its lyrics. The significance of the song is further heightened by the fact that it includes the last words John Lennon ever said to Paul. The chapter also delves into the complex relationship between Paul and John, hidden messages in their songs, and the use of AI technology in completing abandoned Beatles projects.

A listener left a comment on my website asking for my thoughts on the new Beatles song which was released last week, and I was happy to ramble about it for 45 mins. Listen to hear me give my thoughts and tell several stories related to what is being described as the last Beatles song.

I talk for about 10 minutes about burning down my apartment, and my thoughts on the content I make for this podcast and then start talking about The Beatles until the end of the episode. To skip straight to the Beatles bit, go forward to about 12 minutes.
