Another multi series deep dive! We did a multi part series previously on John and Paul with Antony Rotunno (Glass Onion Podcast).

We felt the time was right to tackle the next one and for it we enlisted the help of Author/Journalist Eoghan Lyng (George Harrison In The 1970s U2 on Track), to join us for this first installment on the somewhat frosty relationship Macca and George had between the period of January 1969 thru the Spring of 1975. We present a timeline of events where the two paths traded barbs in the press (which wasn't much), but notably business pertaining to Apple, Paul and Linda appearing at one of the Dark Horse Tour's.

We also have a few clips in this one. Not directly related to Macca but we felt the inclusion of the rare late 1974 radio interview between John Lennon and George was worthy of inclusion as it was likely the last time those two conversed. As well as some nice footage of Paul and George signing the dissolution papers in December 1974.

We will definitely continue this series at some point and we thank Eoghan for his time and knowledge (and impersonations!)
