Ep. 52 | Live in Melbourne (1964)

This week T.J. and Tony follow the Fab Four "under the equator" (as they say) for their ripping June 1964 concert in Melbourne, Australia. It's the rare show that captures the Beatles in peak performance shape, and in high quality audio and video. The guys go through track-by-track, and also find time to cover:

Their favorite early 2000s post-grunge band
Their least favorite 80s NBC TV theme
The breakfast menu at the Taco Bell in Plymouth, Wisconsin
and more!

So pack your bags; we’re heading for Australia! Insert Men At Work joke here.

Ep. 46 | The Beatles Live at Budokan (1966)

Missing live music as much as we are? This week we offer you an hour-long escape to 1966 Japan, where the Fab Four played their iconic concerts at Budokan. Maybe not their most polished performances, but definitely memorable, and definitely a portrait of the Beatles in a critical moment of transition, fresh off their Revolver recording sessions.

We've got lots of music in store for you, along with:

All of TJ's favorite 1980s deodorant and bratwurst commercials
A bit of Tony's junior high pop music lust
A tribute to the great Terri Hemmert and her commitment to awful Beatles covers
And, of course, the obligatory cheap shots at poor Pete Best.
