We round out Women's History Month by speaking with author and academic Christine Feldman-Barrett, author of the new book, A Women's History of the Beatles.
American scholar Christine Feldman-Barrett is a Senior Lecturer in sociology at Griffith University, in Brisbane, Australia, and is a member of the Griffith Centre for Social and Cultural Research. A Women’s History of the Beatles brings a refreshing new perspective to our knowledge of Beatles history, chronicling not only the impact of women on the Beatles, but also how the band has influenced and inspired women for three generations and counting.

The creators behind the Monkees’ hit television series (and the band itself) hoped to establish an American Beatles - although the band’s critics would often refer to them as the “Pre-Fab Four.” While much of the music community despised the Monkees, the Beatles… actually loved them. Join us as we explore why with Grammy-nominated producer, historian, and author Andrew Sandoval, whose new book chronicles the Monkees’ entire career from the birth of Peter Tork in 1942 to the very last day of 1970.
Reservations/orders for Andrew Sandoval's book are now closed.

We're unpacking Paul McCartney's 1997 album Flaming Pie, and going inside the new McCartney Archive reissues. Join us for a track-by-track deep dive where we debate what the hell Paul was actually saying with "I'm the man on the flaming pie," introduce the #LittleWillowChallenge (watch if you dare!), and introduce the first EVER (and only!) McCartney/Starkey writing credit. Plus the inside scoop on the goodies in the deluxe reissue, and why it's Allison's *favorite* Paul album!

The Cavern Club gets credit for launching the Beatles, but it's also the victim of tons of rumors and myths. So we enlisted the help of Liverpool's own Dale Roberts. Dale runs social media for the Cavern, and gives tours of the club and city via the famous Magical Mystery Tour, to help set the record straight once and for all!
