Welcome to the very first round-table discussion on the "Here, There, and Everywhere" podcast. Returning fan-favorite guests Elliot Roberts and Rob Sheffield join host Jack Lawless in exploring the world and post-Beatles music of George Harrison.
Due to a nearly 2.5 hour conversation length, we had to break this amazing discussion into three parts.
