Ep. 284 | Introducing the Beatles*
More Rush? Rush? More! Hurry hurry lover, come to me! That hit was performed by Paula Abdul, and oooooh I’m running for congress... what a spooooooooky last name... lock your doors and BEWARE OF PAULA ABDUL!!!
And this hit episode - now #17 on “Chicago Improv Beatles Podcasts!” - continues the Rushmore journey of some loyal fans of the show. Good news: there’s no more overtures! Better news: the guys take the listener contributions to the next level, as they level up to a level that's a whole new level. Loyal Discordant Steve My Kitten Alone asked how we’d introduce the Beatles to others; who might not share the same passion for or knowledge of the band. In other words, jag bags. But that’s not all! Do we talk about other stuff? Are there other questions? Questions like?
🍆🍔 Who knew Tony was such a big Mac-Head? (That’s a Fleetwood Mac die-hard, someone who’s loved the band both pre-and-post Peter Gabriel. You know, a real fan?) #BigMacHead
📖🐞 Is there enough interest in the topic of Beatles Missionaries to write a highly unauthorized parody of “Book of Mormon”, but with all Beatles songs? #HasaDigaYesterday
💙🧡 (Angry Chicago barfly, he’s wistfully drinking a Malort & Old Style, ruminating on the passing of Mike Ditka) “Me & Coach Ditka didn’t know each other or nothing. But when me & Diane were going through our hardest times, the ’85 Bears is the only real connection we could muster. She got legally cleared to make sweet love to me Sunday mornings at 11, during the Coach Ditka & Johnny Morris show on Channel 2, WBBM. I used to pay her to pretend she was Jeannie Morris, but she looked more like Linda Yu. Well. Now Da Coach is gone, and Diane is, too. She’s in Tampa, but still. #RipCoachDitka
