Ep. 243 | Liverpool Drag
AT LAST, the guys are back from their fall hiatus, in which they frantically earned as much money as possible to fund the next 12 months of profit-less Beatles podcasting. However, they're still recording new episodes for the winter season. With that in mind, this week we dig back into the archives to present one of our favorite episodes that we're kind of surprised we haven't already re-run.... our 2023 Deep Dish into all things LIVERPOOL DRAG!
--------
Originally released November 11, 2023
What happens when you take the energy of Beatlemania and mix it with a helping of questionably written and performed Beatles-inspired songs? You get Liverpool Drag. Not the Beatles, but an unincredible simulation!
This week, Tony & T.J. examine the early 60's phenomenon of Beatle-inspired cash-in records. Are they good? Awful? Somewhere in between? The answer is, "yes".
Along the way, the Drag Duo ask:
📚 Since drag shows are unarguably killing our children, is the only solution to ban more books? Because, freedumb?
1️⃣ Who’s idea was it to exclude “Little Miss Margie” from The Manchesters “Not 1” compilation?
🗓 Come March 2024, should MadTV’s Bobby Lee become eligible for the Untitled Beatles Podcast 7th Beatle Bracket?
Place a mop atop your head, shake it like a mimeograph, and chant “yeah” 3 times, because it’s Liverpool Drag on the UBP! Wooo!!!
