Untitled Beatles Podcast

This week, P3Z-Nutz reports (not) live from down under with another fab fav classic episode!

----- Originally aired May 8, 2021

This week T.J. and Tony follow the Fab Four "under the equator" (as they say) for their ripping June 1964 concert in Melbourne, Australia. It's the rare show that captures the Beatles in peak performance shape, and in high quality audio and video. The guys go through track-by-track, and also find time to c...

The guys are back (even if their voices aren't), and catch up on all the wild Beatlenews and Beatlereleases from the past few weeks.

It's been a hard day's fortnight, & Tony & T.J. have been working like dogs to buy, rent, or look at all the following:

New Paul album, new Ringo album, new John meditation mixes, new George Dark Horse label re-releases, new Wings documentary & soundtrack, new John concert movie, new docum...

It was five years ago today When Teej and Tony told their friends to play A VHS that T.J. had around With its super warbly 80s sound So may we introduce to you The film you’ve loved for all these years: Paul McCartney’s “Give My Regards to Broad Street”

----- Originally aired April 17, 2021

At long last, T.J. and Tony review Sir Paul's magnum opus: Give My Regards to Broad Street. Starring and written by Paul McCartney, the 1984 mo...

It's the end of March Fabness, and there's no time to waste in crowning the Official Legally Required 9th Beatle. 

Spoiler Alert: it's all Chicago bay-bee! Slippers for only sleepers! Glass Onions! One Shining Martha My Duke you know what let's just play the episode, k?

Everybody clap your hands, the UBP is Happy Just To Big Dance With You! That’s right: it’s March Fabness once again, and that means it’s time to crown the official, legally-Calderstone-sanctioned 9th Beatle Bracket, A Ron Howard Motion Picture.

This year’s Beatle Bracket, much like the origins of the Fab 5, begins and ends in Chicago! From the Beatles BBC sessions recorded during the WLS Barn Dance, to the infamous rooftop concert ...

In honour of spring break, it’s a super deluxe reissue of the Untitled Beatles Podcast’s third episode. Travel back to the simpler times of 2020, a world under lockdown during a deadly global pandemic, when two old friends/comedy nerds try podcasting about their favorite band on a platform called Zoom. Spoiler: the band is The Beatles. Wax nostalgic about scrubbing your vegetables with soap while reliving the golden days of Covid-1...

It’s one of the biggest albums of the late 1980’s.

No, not “Small World”, Huey Lewis & The News’ misguided attempt at a jazz-pop record that sadly gave us a song called “Bobo Tempo”, and can be found in near mint condition for a dollar in used record bins across the country. Rather, dear bleeder, it’s George Harrison’s comeback album, “Cloud 9”. Led by its spirited cover of “Got My Mind Set On You”, and the unofficial theme to ...

Look. George Harrison took five years after "Gone Troppo" to complete his 1987 masterpiece "Cloud Nine", so excuse us if we take a couple weeks to wrap up our long awaited deep dish.

This week, the Untitled Twotles finally get around to talking about side one, and promise not to wreck the episode with tacky gated reverb like some sorry Fine Young Cannibals knockoff.

After spending the past three weeks in 1995’s Anthology universe, the Untitled Beatles Podcast needs a break. So this week… we head WAY BACK… to 1987.

That’s right. At long last, by popular demand—LLGH! Cheers, big ears!—Tony and T.J. delve into George Harrison’s smash-hit solo record, “Cloud Nine”, which T.J. SHANOFF LOVED LONG BEFORE ALL YOU BANDWAGON B*S.

Along the way, they find time to foray into Format Foyer, and answer the p...

Some say the “Sgt. Pepper”, post-touring era is the peak of The Beatles recorded music. Others prefer Korn.

For those who are slightly more into The Beatles, Tony, T.J. and Producer Casey deep dish Episode 6 of “The Beatles Anthology”. This has always been one of the most fertile and astonishing chapters in Beatles history, but we can all be thankful that Disney truncated it by 15 minutes for those of us in a rush. Beep beep, toot ...

Real Beatlefans have been saying it on the DL (#JimmyButler) for years: "Who the hell needs Rubber Soul?"

Certainly not “The Beatles Anthology”, which puts nearly as much emphasis on the 1965 classic as they do “The Beatles At The Hollywood Bowl” (Pre-Ron Howard Edition). OK so maybe it’s not that bad, but c’mon Apple, it’s RUBBER SOUL! (#HeyHey #Rip)

For better AND worse, Beatles Anthology 5 is much like its predecessors; chock fu...

Wait no more, it’s Anthology 4! It’s better streaming, and also way worse! It’s shorter, which is nice, and also truly stupid. Official Beatles history is being re-written forever, a travesty that's never sounded or looked so good. Yes, if you’ve also found yourself stroking out at the tightening and edits of “Beatles Anthology - 2025”, you’ve got some pals at the Untitled Beatles Podcast. We’ve never been more grateful for such gl...

How late’s too late to wish people a Happy New Year …? How late’s too late to run a New Year Preview episode of a Beatles podcast? LOOK: THIS EPISODE DROPS JANUARY 31ST SO CLOSE ENOUGH.

We’re back, baybee! Join Tony and T.J. as they spend the better part of an hour writing down their deepest wishes for Beatle baubles in 2026, lighting them on fire, and releasing them into the night sky. And UBP GenZ Correspondent Skylar Moody drops...

No less an authority than Mark Lewisohn knows that the skiing scene in "Help!" was filmed in Stowe VT, during the 1997 Winter X-Games, exclusively on ESPN.

But before (ahem, #apres) skiing was a very Beatles activity, Stowe was known as a small British boys school (Ringo! Ringo!), where the Beatles gave one of their longer and most interesting concerts whilst on the cusp of British fame.

Recen...

We pick up where we left off, in March 1963. The Gab Two follow the Fab Four along their journey in Anthology episodes 2 and 3: touring Britain, navigating Beatlemania, (probably) disappointing the Queen Mother, (probably) disappointing the boys in Paris, and—just in case you haven’t had enough coverage of it—INVADING THE STATES. #Don’tTellICE

Tee-Jay and Tony continue their Disney+ Deep Dish, and in classic Gen X fashion, spend mo...

Short attention spans. Am I right? I mean you’re reading this right now, when you could be with your family or punching a Nazi. (We at the UBP heartily encourage both.) Fortunately, the good folks at Apple & Disney are well aware of short attention span syndrome, most felt during slow dissolves and still images over credits. Thankfully, they’ve done us the favor of removing some incredible Beatles content to save time, all whil...

Many Beatles scholars (NOT YOU, Lewisohn) often cite this familiar and prophetic John Lennon quote: "It came in a vision – a man appeared on a flaming pie and said unto them, 'From 2020 on, all crucial Beatles film projects will be kept behind a Disney paywall, where you will pay to subscribe and still get commercials'." John later relied on this memory to write the inspired-by-Joan Lunden Pepper track, ”Good Morning, Good Morning ...

We’re off this week for the holidays! Please enjoy this beloved holiday classic. And if you’ve got episode ideas or things you’d like to hear more or less of on the show in 2026, drop us an email at untitledbeatlespod@gmail.com.

Hey Jude (now all the people in Chicago)

At long last, T.J. and Tony had their chance to catch Sir Paul’s (Baby) Got Back tour in its final U.S. stop, in the finest city in the land. Sure, it’s the same show we heard Glen glow about in Iowa, and Casey canonize in the Twin Cities, and Mark marvel upon in the Big Easy, but Macca always smacks a little harder with a Malort and a side of ...
