Episode 230: ”Magical Mystery Tour” (with Steve Matteo)
Saturday Dec 09, 2023
Saturday Dec 09, 2023
Roll Up, Roll Up For Episode 230! Steve Matteo, author of the new book Act Naturally: The Beatles On Film joins us this week for a dive into the Paul-centric and driven project and the Beatles 3rd film, Magical Mystery Tour. Steve has published other works on the Beatles and is a regular Fest attendee as well. He will be at the NYC Fest in February. Steve chronicles his methods on research and we contexualise the MMT period (post-Epstein death etc). While it may not be as revered as Help! and certainly not A Hard Day's Night, Magical Mystery Tour is worthy of a viewing if only for the performance of 'I Am The Walrus'.

Denny Laine (1944-2023)

Andy went live on our channel (Tom was tied up) when we learned that founding Wings member Denny Laine succumbed to cancer this past week. Denny was a stronghold for Paul through the 1970s when Paul needed companionship the most. His contributions to Paul's music and his own will stand the test of time.
Andy paid his respects and took comments/questions from our YouTube audience on 5th December 2023. RIP Denny.

Episode 228: Recent Collaborations!
Saturday Nov 18, 2023
Saturday Nov 18, 2023
Well, as we did a rare thing and dropped a new show on the opening weekend of the month given the highly anticipated release of 'Now And Then' on 2nd November we dropped 227 that weekend and it has performed very well for us! One of our best! Thank you everyone!
We took the week off as we flipped schedules and are back this week with a brand new show discussing Paul's recent Musical Collaborations. Paul has participated in 4 recent recordings. He appeared with Dolly Parton (& Ringo) and others on her version of 'Let It Be' on her recent album Rockstar. He appears on Jimmy Buffet's final LP "Equal Strain On All Parts" on a track called 'My Gummy Kicked In'. He wrote and plays on 'Feeling The Sunshine' a song he wrote for Ringo for his latest EP Rewind Forward and lastly contributes bass on a new Rolling Stones song titled 'Bite My Head Off' off their new LP Hackney Diamonds.
We rank and give our thoughts on these performances and how they stack up against each other and also show a bit of our new Red/Blue/Now And Then Merch and discuss the upcoming appearances for Ken Womack's new book on Mal Evans. What do you think of Paul's contributions on these latest songs? Thanks as always for supporting us 2Legs faithful!

Bonus Episode! Andy On WJTB Radio
Tuesday Oct 31, 2023
Tuesday Oct 31, 2023
A special bonus episode!
Andy made an appearance on NJIT's Radio Station WJTB this past week on the show "Dylan's Jams' one of his former students. He asked him to be a part of a special episode focused on the Beatles. The announcement of "Now & Then" and the Red/Blue album reissues wasn't announced before we scheduled the show so it was a nice timing coincidennce.

Episode 226: Electric Arguments!
Saturday Oct 28, 2023
Saturday Oct 28, 2023
Finally! After a few years and many requests we finally take a deep dive into the 3rd Fireman album, 2008's Electric Arguments'. Arguably what could be considered another solo album like McCartney II or III, this album 15 years on has been lost a bit with the embarrassment of studio albums released between 2005 and now. Tom could not make this week's show, so joining Andy is original 2Legs Co-Founder David Gargalino.
We talk Beatles/Now & Then and also dive into a little bit of prog rock with YES/King Crimson talk towards the end! Does this album still resonate for you? It does for us (maybe even more now). Let us know!

Episode 225: ”Documentaries!”
Saturday Oct 21, 2023
Saturday Oct 21, 2023
Well, sort of. This week on the show Tom and Andy (with a big thank you to our friend Kyle Hand for the suggestion) come up with 3 documentaries we would like to see produced (Beatles Anthology style) on certain eras in Paul's career. How would the narrative be told etc. Fun little exercise. We like our choices. What eras would you choose?
