  • Summary

  • We are both huge Beatles fans, so with the recent release of their new single "Now and Then" (advertised as "the last Beatles song"), we decided to do a whole episode about the Beatles. Among the topics discussed: what the Beatles mean to us how we first were introduced to the Beatles as kids, memories of the two of us geeking out over them in our early 20s, why they're so important historically, and of course... what we think of the new song. Also, towards the end we touch on some of the recent Marvel (MCU) news, but decide to put in a pin in that for a future episode. 00:00:00 — Intro 00:00:14 — Why we're talking about the Beatles 00:03:57 — Why the Beatles are important to us 00:28:31 — A Hard Day's Night & HELP! 00:30:06 — Magical Mystery Tour 00:33:03 — Beatles vs Rolling Stones 00:34:59 — Why the Beatles are uniquely eclectic 00:37:32 — Now and Then 00:38:30 — Peter Jackson's video for "Now and Then" 00:44:31 — How important "Now and Then" is to Paul 00:46:16 — Now and Then compared to original demo 00:47:10 — How it sounds like John and Paul collaborating again 00:54:37 — Paul's aging voice 00:56:02 — This is essentially Paul producing John 00:57:05 — Free as a Bird and Real Love 01:00:24 — Is it really the last Beatles song? 01:02:58 — It's like a song fell out of an alternate universe 01:04:10 — The Rutles 01:07:07 — The Marvels and the state of the MCU 01:12:27 — DCEU movies Prodigious Saps: profusive nerdery from Chad Smalley of Blaggards and Brendan Jones of Tesla City Stories. https://linktr.ee/prodigioussaps RELATED LINKS: Blaggards https://blaggards.com/ SlapperCast: a weekly podcast/road diary from Blaggards: https://linktr.ee/slappercast Tesla City Stories https://www.teslacitystories.com Breakfast of the Gods https://www.indyplanet.com/breakfast-of-the-gods Campbell & Jones Meet the Monsters https://meetthemonsters.podbean.com/
