Glass Onion: On John Lennon

Glass Onion: On John Lennon is by far my favorite Podcast of all time! I am a lifelong Lennon fan (well, at least since 1978 when I was 13 years old), and I learned so much new information from Glass Onion that I can barely believe it. Antony Rotunno has really hit on a unique and entertaining formula here: weaving Lennon stories and music into a fascinating hour+ of interesting life lessons and insights. Rotunno’s interviewing style is casual and relatable, and his guest choices have been truly fantastic! I particularly enjoy his guests who address unusual topics, as well as those who you might not hear elsewhere. For example, it was SO satisfying to hear from Caitlyn Hair (twice! on episodes 56 and 64). For years I wondered about Dakota neighbor Marnie Hair, who apparently had an influential role in at least one well-known Lennon biography, but I could never really find any credible information about her relationship with Lennon (and the biographer). Thank you Antony, Caitlyn and Ben! Even if you are only a casual Lennon or Beatles fan, you will still find Glass Onion to be unique, fun, and thought-provoking. Antony, PLEASE this podcast going for years to come!

Wow. This podcast is full of great clips, knowledgeable guests and a host that thoroughly knows how to produce a podcast. Lennon isn’t an easy person to get to know and even harder to figure out, and this podcast doesn’t claim to have the answers. But the journey is certainly fun!

makes me feel less alone

This show is anyone’s cup of tea who loves John Lennon like I do. I’ve always been very interested into the psychology of it all which this show goes into a lot. The conversations in this podcast are never stale. The editing also keeps things fresh and new along with the audio clips which is really nice touch. There are some of my short things to review. I recommend this podcast.
