A ‘Let It Be’ Roundtable with the Blotto Beatles, Ranking the Beatles, Fans on the Run, and Paul or Nothing Podcasts

We’re thrilled to welcome the incredible Michael Lindsay-Hogg to the podcast. Michael is, of course, the director of the Beatles’ film “Let it Be,” now fully restored and available worldwide on Disney Plus.
Michael joined us to talk about his original vision for "Let it Be," its relationship to "Get Back," and give us the details on how he originally wanted the film to end. And of course we couldn’t resist asking him about one our favorite films that Michael directed, "Two of Us."
After the interview, we chat about our experiences at the New York and Los Angeles advance screenings of "Let it Be," and our impressions of the film now, especially in the context of "Get Back."
Warning: we'll be discussing plot points for "Let it Be," so if you wish to remain spoiler-free until you've seen the film, that discussion begins at approximately 27:00.

A "Let it Be" Teaser with Giles Martin and a Track-by-Track Recap of the 2021 Remixes [Encore]

This week, we welcome Melissa Brumm, Co-Producer and Creative Director for the <a href='https://www.arotr.com'>Abbey Road on the River</a> music festival.
Abbey Road on the River (AROTR) is the world’s largest Beatles-inspired music festival (and is very close to Allison's heart!). Since 2002, AROTR has celebrated the best in Beatles music, hosting Beatles and other classic rock tribute bands, as well as many of the original bands themselves. 
Now taking place in Jeffersonville, Indiana, AROTR presents over 250 Beatles and ‘60s-themed concerts featuring bands from all over the world. Each year, more than 20,000 Beatles fans gather to reunite with their AROTR family and celebrate the music of the Fab Four over Memorial Day weekend.
Melissa previews this year’s AROTR, and gives us a look into the many elements that go in to producing a huge music festival. And Allison and Melissa reminisce about their history with the festival, as well as the Beatles tribute band scene.

Behind the Scenes at Abbey Road on the River, with Melissa Brumm

In an April 1973 press conference, John Lennon and Yoko Ono declared the birth of Nutopia, a "conceptual country" founded in response to John's ongoing immigration struggles. In past weeks, Nutopia has resurfaced online through a new website.
We look at the history of Nutopia's founding, born out of John's wild journey to U.S. citizenship. And we explore the newest incarnation of Nutopia as an online presence, just in time for the  50th anniversary release of John's album, Milk and Honey.
Plus, we dive in to the brand new Lennon/McCartney song—Sean Lennon and James McCartney, that is! And we answer the age-old question: "does a Maccarita contain orange juice?"

In an April 1973 press conference, John Lennon and Yoko Ono declared the birth of Nutopia, a "conceptual country" founded in response to John's ongoing immigration struggles. In past weeks, Nutopia has resurfaced online through a new website.
We look at the history of Nutopia's founding, born out of John's wild journey to U.S. citizenship. And we explore the newest incarnation of Nutopia as an online presence, just in time for the  50th anniversary release of John's album, Milk and Honey.
Plus, we dive in to the brand new Lennon/McCartney song—Sean Lennon and James McCartney, that is! And we answer the age-old question: "does a Maccarita contain orange juice?"
