It was 200 episodes ago today… The world was thrown into chaos by a pandemic that real scientists, like the bumbling, mediocre, former host of a largely stupid, 2000’s NBC reality show, knew could be cured with basic medical know how; like injecting bleach. #NegativeCreep #FileHimUnderARock

From this weird, wild world of alternative facts and despair came The Untitled Beatles Podcast, and we couldn’t be more proud to share our 200th sojourn into the vast, beautiful world of Beatles music and culture. In this special episode, Tony, T.J., and Producer Casey take the rare step of making things about themselves, and discuss how a deep love of Beatles music—as well as the much anticipated sequel to “All The Best”—brought them together. They answer pointedly personal, potentially problematic questions from some loyal listeners, and also consider:

🎙️🥁 Is the discovery of cassettes featuring Tony’s long lost, desert rock band’s Beatle covers this generation’s “Live At The Star Club”? But the 2 LP Pickwick version, not that lame 16-track Sony Music CD from 1991?

🇺🇸🧦 Angry Chicago Guy: HOW COME MALCOM MCDOWELL DON’T SPELL “COMPLETE” LIKE AN AMERICAN IN “THE COMPLEAT BEATLES”? AN’T MCDOWELL IN CHARGE OF DAT KIND OF STUFF, THE SAME WAY AJ PERZINSKI WAS IN CHARGE OF KICKING THAT JAG CUBS CATCHER MICHAEL BARRETT’S ASS BACK IN 2006? LET’S GO WHITE SOX! DIANE, I’M WET AGAIN HON…. NO, BAD WET, SWEETIE.

🦁💰 Is “Can You Feel Deloitte Tonight”, T.J.’s “Lion King” parody about noted consulters (?) Deloitte, arguably the best corporate “Lion King” parody about Deloitte of 2000? No? Cool. Cool.

Whether you’re an OG listener, or you’ve tuned in exclusively for a review of Ringo’s new country LP (coming soon!), we’re grateful for all of you, and especially those with the stones to demand that we “get rid of the piano”. THANK YOU, and here’s to the next 200!
