Bonus: Everyday Chemistry
Happy Holidays, Merry Crisis and Happy New Year (we got in just in time)! To celebrate, we've taken a trip to an alternate dimension, where this podcast never needed to exist, because the Beatles never broke up - and we've been given access to a cassette tape which indisputably proves it. This holiday season we present to you an in depth analysis of the remix album Everyday Chemistry. Opinions are varied as always, but without a doubt there's a lot to talk about.In honour of the passing of Wings' Denny Laine and The Pogues' Shane MacGowan, our cover this week is our very own little mashup...Listen to the 'cassette': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oR1tKjCM9OAVoicerom: https://voicerom.bandcamp.com/If you enjoy the show, please leave us a review in-app, or consider becoming a patron on Patreon for as little as £2 a month: https://www.patreon.com/wedontbelieveinbeatles Want to keep up with our favourite songs on each album?

Bonus: Now and Then
This week we take a short detour from the 1980s to explore something a bit more of the moment... a new Beatles song, in 2023! What a time to be alive.
Just like everyone else on the internet, we give our thoughts on the final collaboration between the Fab Four and how Lennon's solo material may have influenced the direction of Now and Then.

Cloud 9
The year is 1987, Cameron Sanderson has finally been born and George Harrison is back... but what of the ELOphant in the room? We discuss the beginnings of George's collaboration with Jeff Lynne, the best albums of 1987, the Oriental Riff Cinematic Universe and whether it's just a bit silly to have a 10 piece band. We also for some reason decide to reinterpret the incredible B-side Shanghai Surprise as a disco banger - you're all welcome.
*Editor's note... despite being aware of The Beatles' new song "Now and Then" already being out, we recorded this episode a little while ago so we do discuss it as if it is yet to come.

Press to Play
We've officially entered Paul McCartney's attractive gray dad era and he's telling us to press, right now, that's it, yes. Press to Play sees Macca reuniting with Eric Stewart and getting even more 80s than you may think possible. Whether you like it or not, there's no doubt it's just two ends of the same hotdog. Stick around to hear our (self admittedly) incredible version of Pretty Little Head.

Give My Regards to Broad Street
This week we go to the theatre, literally - as Jack takes a pilgrimage to the now defunct Broad Street tube station, honouring Paul McCartney's oft-forgotten but still much maligned venture into Hollywood as a solo artist, Give My Regards to Broad Street. We discuss the film, its soundtrack album and how a project that sees Paul reunite with some of his best collaborators (Ringo Starr, Linda McCartney, George Martin) can go so wrong.
Cameron also teaches us how to speak like Stephen Hawking and we discuss the resurgence of 1980s fashion in 2023. Jess then takes lead for a piano ballad rendition of No More Lonely Nights.

Milk and Honey
Happy New Year! Unfortunately, there's a bittersweet air this week as we explore John & Yoko's posthumous release, a spiritual sequel to Double Fantasy but ultimately unfinished, at least on John's behalf. But it's not all doom and gloom! Amongst some auditory gold we discuss if bass guitar is pointless, whether John & Yoko ultimately "fit" musically, which towel one uses when visiting a friend's bathroom and the traditional Halloween turnip carving of Scotland. Stick around to hear our Beck-inspired take on Nobody Told Me.

Customer Reviews
Chris Iassk Vibe Podcast
Could be a fun concept for a podcast sadly the dynamic between the hosts prevent the show from being anything more than banal bantering. There's a pretty clear Paul bias to these reviews not surprisingly. Which can be gratting, especially when listening to the reviews of the other members solo work. The segments drag on far too long, from listing that years "top albums" where the hosts will go off on any number of tangents, and to the really obnixous Temporary secretary rating the third host pretending not to know what to do - gag, is really played out. The opinions shared are so perdictable it's as if a semi-sentient Buzzfeed article materialzed as 3 podcasters.
The main host gives vibes of Glee school musical director.
The third host is a third wheel and his asides "humor???" often derails the show. If I could vote someone off it would be him.
The one cohost seems geniunelly interested in the material, in fact he likely was the one who came up with the concept for the show. As the one host with the most Beatles knowledge, it's mostly limited and often they get key points/facts wrong.
Spendt 30 minutes talking about mar volta album. Most listeners are less interested in hearing your thoughts on Mars Volta rather than you know maybe the Beatles solo album your meant to be reviewing.
After hearing how badly they butcher the solo songs in their outro, I have zero interest in listening to the host's music which they plug shamelessly throughtout the show. They seem to be exhausted and disinterested in their own show at this point.
Maybe adding a 4th guest cohost could help the show. But at this point I Don't Believe in this Podcast.
Waste of Time
What a joke. They spend half the time revealing they haven’t researched the facts, don’t know the music (Beatles or solo) or just insulting the music. Not super enjoyable to listen to.
