I am the EggPod

Fantastic episode with Eleanor Gray
15/06/2024
Eleanor Gray is a fantastic knowledgeable guest: I’m going to miss this pod.
Was the best Beatles podcast I’ve heard or discovered so far!

Updated my review. For two reasons. 1. You’ve stopped doing the podcast, which is disappointing & 2. You invited Chris Chibnall on one of the episodes. That man ruined Doctor Who by going woke with DEI & ESG hiring practices and destroying the canon, by ruining the characters backstory. The Doctor should never has been a woman. RIP Doctor Who. So for those two reasons, I’ve had to knock a couple of stars off. But apart from that, there’s nothing better than learning more about something you already knew about, but with a bit of humour thrown in for good measure. The stand out episodes for me were the white album episodes. Honestly I would’ve been happy if every episode was just the host and David Quantick talking about every Beatles album. The episodes he was on were my favourite

Shame that they finished off a great series with such a badly recorded finale.

This podcast is a wonderful deep (and shallow) dive into the vast range of Beatles music. Highly recommended
The best Beatles podcast. Yes it is.
24/03/2024
Well worthy of a second review (my first was a couple of years ago). This podcast is my Fab Four favourite (and I listen to quite a few). The subjects are always well researched, well presented and the eclectic list of guests is always interesting, even if opinions sometimes differ from my own. Chris has such a lovely pleasant manner with his guests and it is a pleasure to listen to him and the discussions with them. I look forward to each episode and thanks again Chris for all your excellent and hard work.
Another great episode

Jaunty
Lovely stuff
03/03/2024
Chris’s passion for and awareness of the importance of The Beatles shines through. Always entertaining and informative. Ranks among the best podcasts about the Beatles out there. The day is better when an episode drops.
Simply, perfection
18/07/2023
These shows are quite simply perfectly produced. Chris does an amazing job with every episode, both the production and as the host. The guests are a fantastic mix and you can tell just how much they all love the greatest band ever. The Get Back series is an astonishing piece of work. Every Beatles fan should thank Chris just for those 22 shows.
Samira interview

So good I listened twice
Almost as good as listening to the music itself
04/01/2023
This podcast helped me through the lockdowns, opened my eyes to some of the solo stuff I was previously too cool or too ignorant to have listened to before and enhanced my appreciation of the music I’ve loved above all else since birth. Chris is a gentle host who gives his guests space to emote, whilst having all the facts on hand to add texture to already very human stories. Overall an absolute joy. The poppermost of the toppermost.
