S1 E3: Dick James & George Martin: Please Please Me & Beatles on TV


Listen Later

In this episode, we talk about everything from Holocaust education to our love for Beatles songs and how they could replace children’s music. We dive into some of Dick James' story and his involvement with the original Robin Hood show with the incredible Hannah Weinstein.

We talked about the thrill the Fab Four must have felt getting on the show Thank Your Lucky Stars, and how George Martin was more than a producer, he was the piano player.
