Ep. 121d | The White Album (1968) Part 4
A long, cold, lonely winterâs month of the UBP Deep Dish on the White Album comes to a ceremonious close this week! Today, we focus on Sides 3 + 4 of the most landmark double album since the forthcoming Record Store Day 2-LP (da fuq?) version of Ringoâs âStop And Smell The Rosesâ. (âPrivate Propertyâ > âHoney Pieâ, anyone? #LoveMonopoly)
In addition to analyzing the classic, punchy pop tunes (âRevolution 9â), clubby dance jams (âGood Nightâ), and other hits shamefully left off of Tonyâs copy of the Blue Album, the Gab Two also ask:
đŁ Do most fonts taste better (#BrownsChicken #AndPasta #SorryKennyRogers) when used in Pot Lovers Corner?
â Did rapper 2 Chainz once consider calling himself 2 Mizery or 2 Anna (Go To Himz)?
đđ Will the 2028 60th Anniversary remix of âThe Beatles (Peter Sellers Version)â be released in a limited edition deluxe wooden crate featuring a collection of The Pink Panther gnomes? And what about The Stink Panther? #CamNewton #2020NFLJokez
Itâs great, it sold, itâs the bloody Untitled Beatles Podcastâs âWhite Albumâ (sorry, a-hole, âThe Beatlesâ) Deep Dish, part Eye-Vee!

Ep. 121c | The White Album (1968) Part 3
RUN! To your local White Hen Pantry. STEAL! The free 3-D glasses sponsored by WFLD-32 LISTEN! To the aural delights (cream your coffee with that, fella) of the UBP White Album Deep Dish Part 3-D!
Besides generously deep dishing on Side 2 and a teeny bit of Side 3, the 2 White Album Crew (#Daring1991Jokes) also ask:
đŠ Was Bob Hope merely a comic, or was he also one of the great (Rocky Rac)crooners of his era, the late 1890's?
đ Is it just a Q-incidence that neither NYC nor London had rats until they had Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Cats"?
đž How come Macca's "Unplugged" tribute to Uncle Pecos has no repeated stuttering of the common word "crambone"?
Don't be a (Henry) Winkle Picker! Maybe leave us a kick-a review wherever you rent your podcasts!

Ep. 121b | The White Album (1968) Part 2
Itâs Part 2 of the Untitled Beatles Podcast White Album Fabstravaganza! This week T.J. and Tony deep dish Side One, going track-by-track and getting off-track-by-off-track, just like the 1987 CD did with the track separation on âWild Honey Pieâ into âBungalow Billâ. Along the way, they ask the important questions, such as:
đ Which part of the body is the balalaika? Is it a uvula, a female breast, or a Beatle growth? Please get that looked at!
đ What is A.C. âIron Manâ Greenâs definition of the S-word? Does that mean his least favorite Beatles song is âS-word Sadieâ?
đŸ On âWhile My Guitar Gently Weepsâ, did Eric Clapton perform the guitar solo as a teenage werewolf?

Ep. 121 | The White Album (1968) Part 1
It was great! It sold! It's the bloody Beatles' White Album!
And, no, Paul; we wonât shut up.
Because part one of the UBP Deep Dish on âThe Beatlesâ is finally here! Tony and T.J. are sniffer-level giddy to discuss this album-unlike-any-other. And in part one, the Two Little Piggies delve into the history and packaging (#DingDongDingDong) of one of only two official Beatles-canon albums to be known, colloquially, by two names. (The other is âTomorrow Never Knowsâ, which most first-gen fans know as, of course, âFile Under Rockâ.)
And despite this recordâs massive length and girth (Sfx: a pained, guttural groan), Tony & T.J. find the time to ask:
đ đŸ Is the âperfectâ Christmas gift at Walgreens, Woolworth, Woolco, Osco, Venture, Wieboldt's or Montgomery Ward?
đł What uniquely-numbered episode did you download? And was it manufactured in Jacksonville, Jackson Hole, or Jacksonâs Whole?
đŹ Does the inclusion of âThis Boyâ to the White Album Tape 2 8-track, directly after âSavoy Truffleâ but before âJulia (pt. 1)â, improve the original track listing?
BUT WAIT! Is it Tonyâs favorite Beatles album? Is it even in T.J.âs top three? (Or is he just too big a fan of âThe Beatles In Italyâ to budge?) Is everyone who only calls this album by its official name a jagbag? Tune in (#Lewisohn) this week, and likely the next six, as we deep dish âThe White Albumâ!

Ep. 120 | Concert for George 20th Anniversary Screening (A Very Special Untitled Beatles Field Trip)
Fire up your (Gloria) DeLorian(ing) because weâre going back in time! Back, through the mists of time, to a time we call November, 2022, for a special one night only screening of âConcert for Georgeâ on its 20th anniversary. Tony and T.J. road trip to Tonyâs hometownâAddison, ILâon a blustery Chicago early winterâs eve to see the film and also ask:
đ Has the intro to the Cougsâ âI Need A Lover Who Wonât Drive Me Crazyâ ended yet?
đ§ Would Radio Shack still be around had corporate followed their Beaver Dam, WI, franchiseeâs decision to stock blank 8-track tapes in the mid 1990s?
đšđ© Is Springsteenâs hit âMy Hometownâ written about Zaire, the country in Africa? Or Zayre, Framingham, MA-based discount store that was popular in Chicago?

Ep. 119 | 1973 Fantasy Beatles Albums
We asked 100 Untitled Beatles Podcast (only)fans what comes to mind when they hear the words â1973 Fantasy.â Show me, Tattoo! (Buzzer sfx.) Show me, Seven Years Pre-âDoubleâ! (Louder buzzer sfx. Too loud, even.) Show me, 1973 Fantasy Solo LP! Survey says? (Ding ding ding ding!) (Dong dong dong dong!)
Yes, itâs the 50th anniversary of one of the great solo Beatles years. And listener Beatle Dave suggested that we honor â73 by compiling a fantasy Beatles island/album culled from that yearâs releases. Did any surprises make the list, Tony? What classics are nowhere to be found, Todd? What other gold did you, Producer Casey, begrudgingly leave in this edit? Possibly, but not limited toâŠ
đŠ Is Tony on Team Barney, Team Betty, or Team Rock Roll? #TwitchTwitch
đŒ Should the âfamily valuesâ jokers be concerned that the kids are getting into ASMVCR?
đđ Does the Kenny Rogers Roasters in Meat Free Monday City serve impossible chicken suckinâ mother truckinâ?
What 1973 Fantasy Solo LP would you compile? Let us know on Facebook/Twitter/Instagram OR HELL GO MAKE YOUR OWN PODCAST, WE DONâT HAVE A MONOPOLY ON THE FORMAT. #allcaps

Ep. 118 | A Merry Goo Year!
As they say on âRent: Original Broadway Cast Recordingâ, "itâs gonna be happy new year!â They also say âJoanne, which way to the stage?â, and the fuck is Joanne? #NeverSeenRent #ChangeMyMind
Itâs already a been a ding-dong-ding-dong, merry goo year for Tony, T.J. and Producer Casey. This week, they celebrate the 60th anniversary of âPlease Please Meâ, and also (#9 #9 #9) dream about what Beatles goodies and re-re-re-re-re-re-re-reissues (#nowwithmoregnomes) await us in The Jordan Year!
As part of the first episode of T.J.âs final season - heâll be replaced soon with Sandy âArneâ Duncan - the UBPeedle3 consider themselves at home, and also:
đ©č Did Barry Manilow write Band Aidâs âDo They Know Itâs Kars for Khristmasâ?
𧟠If the hits of 1925 turned 60 in 1985, and the hits of 1985 turn 60 in 2045, how will society commemorate the 60th anniversary of âRosanna: Never Ending Live Version (feat. Starkey)"in 2082?

Ep. 117 | âGet Back to Let it Beâ at the Rock Hall (A Very Special Untitled Beatles Field Trip Part 2)
Hey pal. Yeah you, wearing that thing. You may think youâre a Beatles fan. Or that youâve been to Clevelandâs Rock Hall. But ask yourself this question: are you Steve Vai?
In Part 2 of our journey to the âLand to see the âGet Backâ exhibit, we address this strange old question, and also tell no Vaiâs about:
đ„§ Are the good âol boys in Don McCleanâs way-to-brief hit âAmerican Pieâ drinking Agave and Rye?
đźđč What torchy Beatles songs will âMartin Scorseseâs Goodfellas! The Musicalâ include?
đ Will the Gab Two ever donât stop believinâ? Or will they never stop donât believinâ? Like Yakov Smirnoff always says, âWhat a Journey!"
Originally recorded in AAD, remixed to ADD, and finally pressed in Japan in DDD (*information current as of November â87 issue of âCD Reviewâ), weâre proud to present Producer Caseyâs masterful edit of the Untitled Beatles Podcastâs trip to the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame! (#RipIreneCara)

Ep. 116 | Beatle Black Friday Record Store Day
If you're a real patriotic American, you spent the early hours after Thanksgiving waiting in a frigid-ass line at Best Buy at 4am to get a $199 microwave for $192.97. In fairness, it's one o'them microwaves with a built in VCR, so HELL YES.
Or, maybe, like us libz at the UBP, you made your way to your local record store at a more humane hour to pick up some Beatles-related Black Friday Record Store Day vinyl?
On this episode, Tony & T.J. review their RSD experience, the limited Ringo and Dark Horse releases, and also consider:
đŁ Did it take changing his name from Elvis Costello to Declan McManus to get back on his feet?
đ€ Will Tony eventually complete his extensive and very expensive solo Devo vinyl collection?
đ· Has the Live At The Greek All Starr Band's take on "Rosanna" ended yet? No? Fuuuuuuu********k.
Join us for all this and a very special tribute to Mike Ditka's 1988 heart attack (#OliviaNewtonJohn) on this hot off the presses episode!
