Thrilled/terrified to share my new podcast: TOO MUCH INFORMATION! It explores the secret histories and little-known fascinating facts behind iconic movies, music, TV shows and more. My friend/bandmate/fellow People vet @alex_heigl and I are diving in 4/18!

I'm revisiting the Beatles Anthology to get in the mood for Get Back, and it reminded me that George steals the show. Everything he says is funny, irreverent and brutally honest. Doesn't give a damn!
In his honor, enjoy this list of GEORGE HARRISON'S MOST DGAF ANTHOLOGY QUOTES!

Here's a fragment of Beach Boys backing vocals buried in the "sometimes I feel very sad" part of "I Just Wasn't Made For These Times."
"Oh cuándo seré? Un dia seré," Spanish for "When will I be? One day I will be." Like Pet Sounds, it's gorgeous and sad:

Resurfacing this in hopes of a revamped Beatles Anthology...
Did a deep dive into why Bob Dylan looked like he wanted to k himself at the "We Are the World" session 🥳
In honor of "We Are the World" turning 40, I investigated why Bob Dylan looked so not OK at the session. After writing this, I can't say I blame him for entering a dissociative fugue state. Learn why Pop's Greatest Night™️ was Dylan's darkest day!

60 years ago today The Beatles were high af in the austrian alps filming the curling scene for Help!
In a part where Paul runs away from the bomb he purposely ran so far from the shoot just to smoke again😭🏔️

Dispatches from the front row of last night's surprise @PaulMcCartney concert at Bowery Ballroom — on @people right now! I love him more than life itself. One sweet dream, indeed...🥲🤯♥️people.com/paul-mccartney-ro…
Honored to share the moment with my Beatle brethren @robsheff and @RobLeDonne 🥳

Given the real possibility of a supernatural component to the Beatles, wouldn't "Martha My Dear" be a sort of polar energetic reversal of Son of Sam where you speak to the dog?

I ordered my [age redacted] aunt a @swarovski "four-leaf clover with lady bug" figurine for her birthday. (Long, sentimental story.) Today she called me very confused by my gift. Turns out they sent her a crystal Yoda instead.

Did a Q&A with the great Michael Lindsay-Hogg about the long and winding road to redemption for Let It Be. My first ever internet purchase was a bootleg VHS back in '98. Despite my love for all things analog, the new version is SIGNIFICANTLY better.

In honor of the new 'Let It Be box' set, I made a playlist of every cover @thebeatles played during those sessions — 229 songs in 20 days. It recalls their time as human jukeboxes in Hamburg. It’s also a reminder that the Fabs were serious record nerds.

Also, here's like 10,000 words I wrote on the session tapes that came out on the Let It Be box set. I'm still sad there was no "Suzy Parker," no rocked-up version of "Two of Us," no "Because I Know You Love Me So," and nowhere near enough of Mal's anvil.

And what the heck, let's end my insanity inducing Get Back/Let It Be dispatches with a fun piece I did on the rooftop concert a ways back. Love and thanks as ever to the mighty @DarkForcesSwing!
