YOU CAN TALK TO ME - A Beatles Podcast

Bob Koenig has a deep passion for The Beatles and a specific time in their history particularly. In this episode (best enjoyed in the video version option) Bob takes us inside the world of the Beatles exploitation albums that burst onto the scene in the wake of the Fab Four conquering America.
This was a genuinely fun chat that gave me some terrific (and unique) Beatles focused education along the way. Enjoy a little time here with the wonderful Bob Koenig.

Author, Mark Chatterton, has just released his latest work, 'THE MAGICAL MYSTERY BEATLES QUIZ BOOK | 1000 QUESTIONS WITH MULTIPLE CHOICE ANSWERS'. This was a fun conversation exploring both Mark's own Liverpool roots and Beatles fandom.

'CONFESSIONS OF A ROCK 'N' ROLL NAME-DROPPER My Life Leading Up To John Lennon's Last Interview' is a wonderful book from Laurie Kaye, this week's guest.
Together with RKO Radio colleagues,Dave Sholin, Bert Keane, and Radio Engineer, Ron Hummel, Laurie sat across from John & Yoko on December 8, 1980 for a rich and deep conversation only hours before his tragic murder. Her own remarkable story in radio and rock journalism is quite amazing and her book takes us from humble beginnings to a moment in time forever captured in history.
For more on Laurie and her compelling story, see the link below.

Amelia Davis, longtime personal assistant, and friend to renowned photographer Jim Marshall, is my guest. Amelia is the driving force behind the new book (from Chronicle), THE BEATLES By Jim Marshall Live at Candlestick Park 1966. The book features more than 150 striking images caught through Jim's lens, many never before seen.
2026 marks the 60th anniversary of The Beatles' last official live concert and this book is a beautiful visual record of this specific moment in their history.
We speak, not only of Jim's remarkable life, but Amelia's journey also as a respected photographer and someone whose life was greatly impacted by their special friendship.
