Beatles Backstage | The Bedrooms Where Rock History was Made

In Liverpool in the 1950s two teenagers began writing music in their bedrooms. They went on to provide the soundtrack to the 1960s and change the face of popular culture forever. They were Paul McCartney and John Lennon and their four-piece rock and roll band was of course The Beatles. Join Curator James Grasby to unlock the iconic group’s origin story. How do humble acts of creativity at home lead to great things? To find out, we’re behind the scenes at the childhood homes of Sir Paul McCartney and John Lennon at Forthlin Road and Mendips in Liverpool. Here, Paul and John grew up, fell in love with music and wrote The Beatles’ first hits. A note for listeners, a version of this episode first aired on the National Trust Podcast in 2019.

Pub Walks and Planet Protection

One of the simple pleasures in life is getting outdoors for a walk, taking in the world around you with some fresh air and then nipping into a cosy pub for a well earned treat. Claire Hickinbotham takes you on some of our favourite walks from our book ‘100 Great Pub Walks’ and finds out why caring for our planet, is necessary for the good of the humble pint. From floodplains to fens, from peatlands to pubs, discover the work that goes on to look after our planet.Click here to read these episode notes in Welsh [Ad] This podcast is sponsored by Starling Bank. Peatlands are essential for people and the planet in lots of incredible ways - they act like natural sponges, storing more carbon than all of the world’s rainforests put together. And they’re a habitat for a whole host of wildlife. And they act as flood defences in the face of climate change. Starling Bank have been funding the National Trust’s work towards saving our peatlands since 2023, supporting projects that’ll restore and protect over 400 hectares of the UK’s precious peatland – that’s 372 football pitches.
