Get Back Docn' - A Celebration of the Music Documentary

Docn' is back! This lost episode was taped two years ago upon the holiday season release of Peter Jackson's Get Back. 
Divided into thirds and running nearly eight hours, Get Back is a look at the beginning of the end of the Beatles. The documentary is doubly successful: first, it complicates and challenges the conventional narrative for why the band broke up (Yoko, bickering) while establishing entirely new questions about what was really happening between these four bandmates. We watch as an arbitrary deadline - for a film, or show, or movie, or something - slowly approaches. The Beatles are then forced to decide if they will continue on at all - and, if so, how. 
What’s surprising about Get Back is how enjoyable it really is to see one of the most over-scrutinized musical acts of the 21st century simply being…themselves. George is often self-deprecating and brittle; Paul is intensively creative and ambitious; John is an endless cutup; Ringo is hungover and/or hesitant. But when they all go up on that roof, the reservations and mythos crumble.
Joining us to talk Beatles for this very special episode is Leah Churner, co-host of The Horticulturati, a talk show about landscape design and gardening.
Docn' Podcast also celebrates the release of Chalk Diary, a collection of essays by our very own Adam Schragin!
