Ep. 244 | Fabsgiving 2025
Greetings from America where it’s our annual National-Murder-A-Turkey Week! We here at the UBP Home Office at tropical Meigs Field are beyond grateful for our listeners, our friends, our UBP families, our Patreon subscribers, Kohls Black Friday deals, and US Postal workers, who deserve our respect and a damn TIP around the holidays.
This week, we show our gratitude for the many Beatles and solo Beatles projects in 2025, highlighted by the recent release of “Anthology 4”, which presents an exciting chance to buy “Something” (take 39, instrumental strings only) for the second time since 2019. (Who needs “Carnival Of Light” when you can have “Something” (take 39, instrumental strings only) on TWO pricey physical reissues?)
The Turkey Trottin Two share their gratitude, and discuss a litany of holiday-themed Beatles news and releases. And they absolutely never sound like grumpy old dudes who'd rather have a deluxe Rubber Soul than a full slab of Threetles vinyl!
Plus, in the spirit of the holiday season, they ponder/pander:
🏳🌈 How bright must a fella be to boldly boycott a major store for the wrong reasons?
🍋 Does talking about The Lemonheads count as talking about The Lemon Twigs? Or does that joke get a big old fashioned Evan Dand-NO?
💸 Is the the new $32 Zoetrope Vinyl of “Happy Xmas” backed with “Listen, Your Cash Is Falling”?
