What listeners will find here

What happened after Anthology: reunion, rupture, or something in between?
The Beatles Anthology and its aftermath are the focus here, looking at what changed after its 1995 arrival on TV screens and in record stores. The episode circles the big question: did Anthology bring the Beatles back together, split them apart again, or leave them in a more complicated middle ground?
How Rubber Soul came together under a brutal 1965 deadline
Rubber Soul is the focus here, starting in October 1965 as the Beatles face 14 recording sessions and one extra day for a single before a December 3 release. This first part looks at how such a tight schedule produced one of their landmark albums.
Kevin Godley revisits his role in The Beatles Anthology reissue
The episode centers on Kevin Godley discussing his involvement with The Beatles Anthology as part of an Anthology Reissue week. It revisits material first released in 2020 and offers a focused listen for anyone curious about the project from an insider’s perspective.
Rubber Soul, under pressure: The Beatles race the clock in part two
Rubber Soul Part Two returns to a Beatles moment defined by deadline pressure, with an album due in six weeks and less than half recorded. The episode also folds in the curious detour of a TV variety special, hinting at how hectic and strange this period could be.
How Rubber Soul got finished: the all-nighter, the leftovers, and the split release
Rubber Soul reaches the finish line as The Beatles pull an all-nighter, dig into leftover tracks at Abbey Road, and then face decisions about the album’s name, cover, and altered American edition. This third part looks at the scramble and the shaping of a classic.
